On long-term scout potential he's rated 17.9, ranking 432nd of 481 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (78.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.46 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hall.
Judged on this season alone, Hall graded 27 — a strong campaign that ranks top 25% of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 10 clean sheets and 2.461 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 44 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 74th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One. At 33 Hall is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Port Vale finished 22nd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 39 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 78.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 17.9, Hall carries the 74th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 88, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Port Vale finished 22nd 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 (2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
