Pulling current player details into Tactico.


A Bundesliga defensive midfielder sitting at 77.46 on the Tactico scale — above average for a typical starter, but not a standout in any single dimension. The most distinctive quality is possession control (79.77 sub-score), which separates this player from the defensive archetype and signals a modern, ball-retaining DM profile. Creative output of 1.9 key passes/90 and 0.2 assists/90 adds genuine value beyond the defensive brief.
The 79.77 possession control sub-score is the primary driver of the 77.46 Tactico Score, pulling the overall rating above what the defensive (42.3) and progression (34.01) sub-scores would otherwise support. Without that ball-retention quality, this profile would sit closer to the 60–69 adequate-starter band.
Form score of 74.02 sits 3.44 points below the Tactico Score of 77.46 — within the ±5 stable range, so this is not a meaningful concern. The trend is flat rather than declining, and with 33 matches and 2,656 minutes logged this season, the sample is robust enough to treat the gap as noise.
Stach (78.84) is the closest match — a Bundesliga DM with a similar ball-playing profile; the key difference is Stach scores slightly higher overall, suggesting marginally stronger defensive or progression output.
Casimiro (75.1) shares the high-volume duel engagement and creative contribution from deep midfield, but brings a more established defensive sub-score profile that this player currently lacks.
Wharton (73.6) is a comparable ball-retaining DM operating at a similar score level; the distinction is Wharton's profile skews more conservative creatively, whereas this player's 1.9 key passes/90 represents a more attack-facing contribution.
Sub-score of 79.77 is the clear standout in this profile — above average for the role and the main reason the Tactico Score reaches 77.46. Reflects a DM who keeps the ball under pressure rather than recycling it blindly.
1.9 key passes/90 and 0.3 big chances created/90 are high for a defensive midfielder. Combined with 0.2 assists/90, this player contributes meaningfully to the attacking phase from a deep position.
Defense sub-score of 42.3 is below baseline for a DM. Tackles at 1.59/90 and a 59% duel success rate from 4.54 duels won/90 indicate engagement but not dominance — the physical duel sub-score of 40.44 reinforces this as a genuine gap for a role where defensive reliability is core.
Progression sub-score of 34.01 is a clear weakness. For a modern DM expected to advance play through carries or line-breaking passes, this limits the player's ability to shift from ball-retention to ball-advancement.
