Output in context · Azul Claro Numazu finished 20th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
5 clean sheets in 21 appearances (24% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (20th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.5% 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 19.1, Watanabe carries the 13th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the J3 League of 21, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Azul Claro Numazu finished 20th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
