Clean sheets

2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 18.6, Gurr carries the 46th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the USL Championship of 65. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
