On the season, Turnbull graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 6.538 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 8). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 9. At 32 Turnbull is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

6.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 5 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 6.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 11.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 9.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
