A defensive midfielder or "number eight", Janelt is "strong, versatile, commanding, composed in possession, possesses great awareness, is a good passer and an aggressive winner of the ball". He had also been deployed at centre back and left back. In 2024, Brentford head coach Thomas Frank described Janelt as "the go-to guy in so many ways. He is a very intelligent footballer, a fantastic character with leadership potential and he makes our team better".
