A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present (95.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Belshaw.
On the season, Belshaw graded 18 for current form (age-blind), on 12 clean sheets across 47 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 18 → 18). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14. At 35 Belshaw is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Notts County finished 5th of 24 · an upper-table side
12 clean sheets in 47 appearances (26% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (5th of 24) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 95.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 13.9 overall — below regular-starter level. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
