What he’s worth on the pitch today — our number, not the market’s. A steady centre-back who wins trust with simple, hard defending.
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.
