What GoalPost values him at
range pending · wider band
What he’s worth on the pitch today — our number, not the market’s. Reliable centre-back whose positioning and decision-making anchor a stable back line.
GPS / value trend
Logged GPS and value trends appear after at least two real daily snapshots.
Daily snapshots only. Sparse history stays hidden rather than drawing a flat line.
Value trajectory
Value trajectory appears once GoalPost has a current FMV and dated season ratings.
Dashed line is reconstructed from season ratings, age, role, and today's GoalPost value. Logged-live value points will appear here once history accrues.

Playing style
Trusty reads the game with intelligence rather than pace, positioning himself to cut out danger before it develops. He's a distributor from the back who favours accuracy over ambition, building play through simple, lateral passes. His strength lies in one-on-one defending and aerial command in his own box.
View style breakdown →World Cup 2026 outlook
A solid domestic performer in his prime, Trusty remains in the conversation for national team consideration but has yet to force his way into definitive plans for 2026. His profile—reliable, limited in upside—makes him a squad depth option rather than a cornerstone choice.
