Output in context · IF Elfsborg finished 4th of 16 · an upper-table side
2.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 16) 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 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 90.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26, Olsson carries the 24th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 39. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
