Clean sheets

3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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 6 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.35 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
