As the elder statesman at RKC Waalwijk, Aaron Meijers showcases a pragmatic style of play from the left-back position. At 36, his experience is evident in his impressive aerial prowess, boasting a near-impeccable win rate that sets him apart from most of his Eredivisie counterparts. Although his ball recovery and retention stats suggest he's not heavily involved in possession play, Meijers makes up for it with a commendable duel win percentage, indicative of his solid defensive capabilities. His ability to intercept effectively compensates for less frequent involvement in ball recoveries. However, his progressive passing and carrying are relatively underwhelming, hinting at a conservative approach when advancing the ball. While he's not a focal point in the attacking third, his sporadic ventures forward can't overshadow his primary defensive responsibilities. Overall, Aaron Meijers remains a purely defensive asset in RKC’s setup, with his seasoned nous being a significant factor in his continued relevance in top-flight football at an age when many peers have stepped aside.
