In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (97% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.09 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90.

Judged on this season alone, Smith graded 36 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 23 central midfielders in the League One, on 2 goals, 3 assists and 3.092 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 36 → 36). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 40, top 40% of the 23 central midfielders in the League One. At 27 Smith is in his prime years, and a market index of 13.3 reflects that trajectory.
Smith is operating at his career peak — the 2024/25 level is the level.
Output in context · AFC Wimbledon finished 19th of 24 · a lower-table side
3.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 45 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 97% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 40.3, Smith carries the 9th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (AFC Wimbledon finished 19th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
