4 clean sheets in 11 appearances (36% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (18th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.9, Wickens carries the 14th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship of 41 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
