Scout report
L. Burge is a 33-year-old goalkeeper at Northampton, rated 13.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 459th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (43.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Burge.
Judged on this season alone, Burge graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 35 of the 35 goalkeepers in the League One, on 4 clean sheets across 20 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 12 → 6). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13, 33rd of 35 of the 35 goalkeepers in the League One. At 33 Burge is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Northampton finished 24th of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
4 clean sheets in 20 appearances (20% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (24th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 43.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, 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 13.4, Burge carries the 33rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League One of 35, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Northampton finished 24th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
