Each attribute, out of 99: how he compares with the 534 outfield players in Championship with ten full games or more, over 2024/25, marked down when he's below par among defenders (so playing up front alone doesn't make a shooter); passing against other defenders only, since where you play decides how safe your passes are. Rating is Sportmonks’ match rating, averaged. League matches only.
League matches in the competitions we cover, from Sportmonks. Per 90 shown from five full games. Cups, Europe and internationals aren’t included.
