Judged on this season alone, Ng graded 34 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 7% of the 79 full-backs in the League One, on 11 clean sheets and 3.375 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 25 → 34). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 54th of 79 of the 79 full-backs in the League One. At 30 Ng is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Cardiff finished 2nd of 24 · a title-challenging side
3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) 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 6 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 63.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.34 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 29.9, Ng carries the 54th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One of 79. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
