A role is a starting-XI observation. A substitute has no grid slot, and an intended position is only a note until it appears in the team sheet. The current Aberdeen role overrides the career label only when it is clearly different; no secondary positions clear the threshold. Stretch: M C, AM C.

Coverage and limits
What this profile can and cannot say
The rose uses Premiership-only rates and compares with the same league and role cohort at the cohort minutes threshold. Where current-season Premiership minutes are below the profile threshold, it uses the most recent prior Premiership season with at least 180 league minutes and compares against that season's cohort; the season is labelled. Provider values are opaque and league-relative; the cohort percentile is not a cross-league verdict. Availability comes from the curated ledger and keeps its source and verification date. No contracts, wages, fees or recommendations are claimed.
