Output in context · Salford City finished 4th of 24 · an upper-table side
1.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 49 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 11 goals and 8 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 86.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.03 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
