P. Pomykal is a 26-year-old defensive midfielder at FC Dallas, rated 29.6 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (2.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.5 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pomykal.

On the season, Pomykal graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.5 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 30. At 26 Pomykal is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Pomykal missed 27 games through injury (jumpers knee, knee) out of roughly 36 this season. The 4 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 4 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 2.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 29.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
