Output in context · Nice finished 16th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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
- Defensive volume. 3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 4.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 44.6 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.75 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.
