On the season, Fitz-Jim graded 15 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 0 assists and 6.283 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 62. At 23 Fitz-Jim is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 28.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Fitz-Jim missed 8 games through injury (inactive, shoulder) out of roughly 36 this season. The 17 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

6.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 6.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 62 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
