Scout report
A. Robertson is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Cardiff, rated 42.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 22nd of 213 on scout potential in the League One. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (47.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.77 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Robertson.
Judged on this season alone, Robertson graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 7th of 12 of the 12 defensive midfielders in the League One, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 3.773 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 13). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, top 25% of the 12 defensive midfielders in the League One. At 23 Robertson is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 9.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Cardiff finished 19th of 24 · a lower-table side
3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th 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
- Defensive volume. 3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 47.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 42.1, Robertson carries the 3rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League One of 12 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
