AI Analysis
Generated Apr 30, 2026

A Premier League goalkeeper sitting at 66.62 on the FQ scale — an adequate starter whose output places them in the mid-tier of scored players, not among the league's elite shot-stoppers. Across 27 matches and 2,308 minutes this season, performance has been consistent rather than standout, with a form score of 65.77 tracking almost exactly with the overall FQ score. Data confidence is high at 0.84, so this reading is well-grounded.

Why this score

The FQ score of 66.62 is driven primarily by consistent, baseline-level goalkeeper output without any elite-tier differentiators. Granular role-specific metrics — save percentage, xG prevention, distribution — are not available in this data packet, meaning the score reflects composite reliability rather than a specific standout dimension.

Form Trajectory

Form score of 65.77 sits just 0.85 points below the FQ score of 66.62 — well within the ±5 stable band. No meaningful decline or upward momentum is present; output is flat and predictable.

Similar Profiles
Players with comparable scoring profiles in the same role
Alisson Ramsés Becker

Near-identical FQ score of 66.74 places them at the same tier this season; Alisson's reputation and historical peak far exceed what this current score reflects, highlighting how form-based scoring can converge players across different calibre profiles.

Compare →
Martin Dúbravka

FQ score of 66.27 makes Dúbravka the closest comparable in terms of current output level; both sit in the adequate-starter band, though Dúbravka's role as a backup/rotation keeper gives his score a different positional context.

Compare →
Paulo Dino Gazzaniga

FQ score of 66.21 reflects a similar mid-tier consistency profile; Gazzaniga operates in a lower-pressure environment than a full Premier League starter, making the score convergence notable.
