Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 29 → 33). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 58, 31st of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 27 Dozzell is in his prime years, and a market index of 26.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Dozzell missed 9 games through injury (ankle, yellow cards) out of roughly 46 this season. The 37 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Dozzell is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Portsmouth finished 18th of 24 · a lower-table side
2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 94.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 58, Dozzell carries the 31st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Portsmouth finished 18th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
