Output in context · Stoke City finished 17th of 24 · a lower-table side
10 goals in 45 appearances (0.22 per game) is double figures — and for a lower-table side (17th of 24), a real standout. Weaker sides create and score less, so carrying double-figure output there says more than the raw number alone. He also laid on 11 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 21 goal contributions (0.47 per appearance).
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 97% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Final-third output. 0.48 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.25 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.1 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 63.2, Thomas carries the 34th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Championship of 69, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Stoke City finished 17th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.48 goal contributions 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.
