Output in context · Chesterfield finished 6th of 24 · an upper-table side
2.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 7.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 5.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
