Clean sheets

3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 81.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 54.4, Frame carries the 1st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premiership of 19 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
