Output in context · Universitatea Cluj finished 2nd of 6 · a title-challenging side
5.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 6) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.3% 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 16.3, Silva carries the 46th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Liga I of 61. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
