Judged on this season alone, Roldan graded 41 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 10% of the 50 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 1 goal, 3 assists and 4.384 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 32 → 41). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 42nd of 50 of the 50 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 31 Roldan is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Seattle Sounders finished 5th of 15 · an upper-table side
4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 90% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 24.9, Roldan carries the 42nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 50. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
