One of the biggest game-time risers in the League One: on the pitch for 100% of Burton Albion's available minutes this season, up from 12% last year — a bench-to-starter jump the ratings will catch up with at the next checkpoint.

Squad depthCentral defender

F. Delap is a 21-year-old central defender at Burton Albion, rated 39.8 overall by Field Insider's model. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (11.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.17 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Delap.

On the season, Delap graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 3.174 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 4).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 40. At 21 Delap is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 11.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 39.8 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.17 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.
