A career still climbing — Firmino is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Lexington finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (9th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 49.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 31.2, Firmino carries the 7th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the USL Championship (top 11%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Lexington finished 9th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
