Scout report
S. Sherring is a 26-year-old central defender at Cheltenham, rated 26.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 245th of 478 on scout potential in the League Two. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (45.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.35 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sherring.
Judged on this season alone, Sherring graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 45th of 76 of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two, on 5 clean sheets and 3.348 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 15). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 33rd of 76 of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two. At 26 Sherring is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Cheltenham finished 18th of 24 · a lower-table side
3.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th of 24) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 45.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.4, Sherring carries the 33rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two of 76, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Cheltenham finished 18th of 24) — 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 (3.35 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.
