On the season, Watson graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 0). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 55. At 21 Watson is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 22.7 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 · Bolton finished 15th of 24 · a mid-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 1 appearance.
Strengths
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 0.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 54.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
