Scout report

Squad depthAttacking midfielder

B. Garrity is a 29-year-old attacking midfielder at Port Vale, rated 26.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 366th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (46.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Garrity.

Judged on this season alone, Garrity graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 71st of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the League One, on 0 goals and 1 assist in 25 appearances (0.046 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 4). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 64th of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the League One. At 29 Garrity is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.2 reflects that trajectory.

0 goals in 25 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 46.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.05 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 26.3, Garrity carries the 64th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the League One of 73, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Port Vale finished 22nd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.05 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
