Output in context · Leyton Orient finished 20th of 24 · a lower-table side
24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Doing that for a lower-table side (20th 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
- Defensive volume. 24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 0.7% 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 37.9 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (24 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.
