Output in context · Villarreal finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
2.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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 7 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.39 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 55.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 67.6, Buchanan carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga of 73. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.55 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.
