Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on John.

On the season, John graded 9 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 4.973 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 50. At 24 John is in his prime years, and a market index of 19.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: John missed 3 games through injury (muscular problems, fitness) out of roughly 36 this season. The 9 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

4.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 4.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 50.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
