Output in context · Changchun Yatai finished 16th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 76.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 7.7, Sunzu carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super League of 54, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Changchun Yatai finished 16th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
