Pulling current player details into Tactico.


A ball-winning defensive midfielder in Ligue 1 whose physical duel output is the defining feature of his game: 7.86 duels won/90 at a 58% success rate and 3.34 aerials won/90 place him firmly in the ball-winning archetype. His Tactico Score of 74.79 sits in the "good" tier — a consistent above-baseline contributor, but not a standout at the top-league level. Chance creation is minimal (0.08 big chances created/90), confirming his value is almost entirely defensive.
The 74.79 Tactico Score is primarily driven by strong physical duel and aerial metrics, which align precisely with the defensive midfielder role. The absence of any meaningful creation output and modest clearance volume (1.67/90) cap the ceiling, keeping him in the 70-77 "good" band rather than pushing toward elite.
Form score of 69.62 sits 5.2 points below the Tactico Score of 74.79, placing this player at the boundary of a soft decline — the gap is real and worth monitoring over the next month. The decline is not yet alarming given the strong confidence score (0.88) and 25-match sample, but the downward trend is consistent rather than noise.
Both are physical, ball-winning defensive midfielders with similar Tactico Scores (75.1 vs 74.79), though Casimiro has historically offered more progressive passing volume and a higher ceiling in elite competition.
Comparable score (73.6) and role profile as a defensive-first midfielder; Wharton operates in a higher-profile league context, which distinguishes the difficulty of their respective environments.
Nearest score match (72.2) with a similar ball-winning archetype, though André has shown more involvement in progressive carries, giving him a slightly different utility profile.
3.34 aerials won/90 is an above-average figure for a defensive midfielder and is the single most distinctive physical marker in his profile.
7.86 duels won/90 at a 58% success rate reflects consistent ball-winning activity across 2,154 minutes this season — a robust sample at 25 matches.
1.67 clearances/90 is modest for a defensive midfielder, suggesting his defensive contribution is concentrated in duels and tackles (2.55/90) rather than positional sweeping.
0.08 big chances created/90 and 0.96 key passes/90 are near the floor for the role — he offers almost no creative upside, which limits his value in possession-based systems.
