An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (41.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.57 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lindsay.
Judged on this season alone, Lindsay graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 60th of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 3 clean sheets and 4.568 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 66th of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 30 Lindsay is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 41.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
