Progression sub-score of 31.46 is a meaningful gap for a central midfielder — ball-carrying and line-breaking are core expectations of the role, and this figure sits well below the 55 baseline, limiting his ability to advance play vertically.

Defense sub-score of 27.93 is a concern for a central midfielder. Despite 1.59 tackles per 90, a 44% duel success rate and 0.73 aerials won per 90 indicate he is regularly losing physical contests, which is a liability in the Premier League's midfield battles.

PhysicalDuel sub-score of 38.2 reflects the 44% duel success rate directly — he engages (3.95 duels per 90) but wins fewer than half, which compounds the defensive vulnerability flagged above.
