An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.45 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Crowley.
Judged on this season alone, Crowley graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 67 of the 67 central midfielders in the League Two, on 1 goal, 2 assists and 4.448 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 34 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 45th of 67 of the 67 central midfielders in the League Two. At 29 Crowley is in his prime years, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Milton Keynes Dons finished 2nd of 24 · a title-challenging side
4.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 4.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 27.4% 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 19.1, Crowley carries the 45th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League Two of 67. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
