Output in context · Braintree finished 23rd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 1 appearance. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (23rd of 24) 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.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.4/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 4.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 67.4 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
