Output in context · Stevenage finished 6th of 24 · an upper-table side
1.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 45 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 7 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 71.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.25 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 43.3, Kemp carries the 15th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One (top 23%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.25 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.
