On the season, Coughlan graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 1 assist in 11 appearances (0.361 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 4). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

1 goal in 11 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 2 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 11.7 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
