Clean sheets

3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 39 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 70.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 52.3, McCrorie carries the 44th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship of 77. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
