In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (91.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.32 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Deas.
Judged on this season alone, Deas graded 32 — a strong campaign that ranks top 27% of the 19 centre-backs in the Premiership, on 8 clean sheets and 3.316 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 30 → 32). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 16% of the 19 centre-backs in the Premiership. At 26 Deas is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.9 reflects that trajectory.
Deas is operating at his career peak — the 2023/24 level is the level.
Output in context · Kilmarnock finished 11th of 12 · a relegation-threatened side
3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (11th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 91.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 42.9, Deas carries the 3rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premiership (top 16%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kilmarnock finished 11th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
