Clean sheets

3.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 57.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.6, Roughan carries the 2nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One (top 15%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
