Goals / app

10 goals in 45 appearances (0.22 per game) is double figures — and for a lower-table side (17th of 24), a real standout. Weaker sides create and score less, so carrying double-figure output there says more than the raw number alone. He also laid on 11 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 21 goal contributions (0.47 per appearance).

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 94.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Final-third output. 0.48 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.25 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.1 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 62.8 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.48 goal contributions 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. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around age 27 (~38), then tapers with age. At 27, Thomas sits on 38.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Thomas's projected Rating — 62.8 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.
