Read the appearance count in context: Smallbone missed 28 games through injury (hamstring, calf, injured) out of roughly 48 this season. The 10 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Millwall finished 3rd of 24 · an upper-table side
2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 16.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 51.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.54 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.
