Scout report

Squad depthCentre-forward

B. Anderson is a 27-year-old centre-forward at Kilmarnock, rated 36 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 130th of 225 on scout potential in the Premiership. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (55.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.28 goal contributions per 90 (0.19 goals, 0.1 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Anderson.

Judged on this season alone, Anderson graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 17th of 30 of the 30 centre-forwards in the Premiership, on 4 goals and 2 assists in 35 appearances (0.285 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 19th of 30 of the 30 centre-forwards in the Premiership. At 27 Anderson is in his prime years, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.

4 goals in 35 appearances (0.11 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 6 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.28 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 36, Anderson carries the 19th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Premiership of 30, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kilmarnock finished 11th of 12) — 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 work-in-progress on end product (0.28 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.
