Brittain is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
2.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 12 clean sheets across 44 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 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 58, Brittain carries the 31st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

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 (~29), then tapers with age. At 28, Brittain sits on 17.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Brittain's projected Rating — 58 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.
