Output in context · Kaizer Chiefs finished 3rd of 16 · an upper-table side
5.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 6.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
