An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (54.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.72 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90.

Clean sheets

2.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 54.3% 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 45.4, Hall carries the 29th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One (top 25%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Port Vale finished 22nd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
