Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 12). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, 27th of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 24 Gilbert is in his prime years, and a market index of 27 reflects that trajectory.
Gilbert is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
3.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 58.6, Gilbert carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~27), then tapers with age. At 24, Gilbert sits on 27, at or near its peak. The blue line is Gilbert's projected Rating — 58.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
