Ericson consistently makes his presence felt in limited minutes, averaging over 18 metres per appearance from a replacement role — a return that points to direct, hard-running ball-carrying rather than peripheral involvement. His standout individual performance of 13 carries for 93 metres underlines that he can shoulder a significant portion of the carrying burden when called upon. His tackle contributions, while modest on average, show he is not one-dimensional in defence.
