Judged on this season alone, Evans graded 22 — a solid campaign that ranks top 40% of the 66 central midfielders in the League One, on 2 goals, 3 assists and 3.849 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 44 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 61st of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the League One. At 32 Evans is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Blackpool finished 13th of 24 · a mid-table side
3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 38.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 18.2, Evans carries the 61st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One of 66. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
