Output in context · Omiya Ardija finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 32.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27, Shimoguchi carries the 37th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J2 League of 70 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
