Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Atcheson.
Judged on this season alone, Atcheson graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 66th of 77 of the 77 full-backs in the Championship, on 3 clean sheets and 3.235 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Atcheson, 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 61, 32nd of 77 of the 77 full-backs in the Championship. At 19 Atcheson is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 22.3 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Blackburn finished 20th of 24 · a lower-table side
3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (20th 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.
Strengths
- Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 60.5, Atcheson carries the 32nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship of 77 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
