Output in context · Melbourne Victory finished 4th of 12 · an upper-table side
3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 36.1% 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 18.7, Inserra carries the 12th-highest potential of the full-backs in the A-League of 32 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
