Output in context · Machida Zelvia finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) 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 4 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 79.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points
