Goals / app

5 goals in 16 appearances (0.31 per game) for a mid-table side. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 9 goal contributions (0.56 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.62 goal contributions per 90 (0.35 goals, 0.28 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.7, Blake carries the 24th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the USL Championship of 27. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.62 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
