Judged on this season alone, Birmančević graded 51 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 13th of 32 of the 32 central midfielders in the NB I, on 5 goals, 2 assists and 1.356 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 22 → 51). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

1.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) 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 5 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 82.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.5 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.36 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 40.8, Birmančević carries the 32nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the NB I of 32. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
