Output in context · Stockport County finished 3rd of 24 · an upper-table side
1.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 49 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 19 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 96.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.46 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.54 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 37.9, Wootton carries the 39th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 88. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
