Answer
2025-26: Defender A (percentile 91); in 2024-25, B (percentile 74). More tackles per 90 in 2024-25. The difference in 2025-26: wins more in the air and wins more duels.
Context
Tackles per 90 can be misleading: Niakhaté posted 1.58 in 2024–25, yet achieved a higher grade in 2025–26. Winning more aerial duels and reaching 66% total duel success pushed Niakhaté to the 91st percentile.
