We hold a single season for Joseph, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, top 20% of the 67 defensive midfielders in the League Two. At 20 Joseph is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Tranmere finished 21st of 24 · a lower-table side
3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (21st 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 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 47.8% 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 32, Joseph carries the 13th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League Two (top 20%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Tranmere finished 21st 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 (3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
