Output in context · Millwall finished 3rd of 24 · an upper-table side
3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 40 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 58.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 69.8, Sturge carries the 8th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship (top 11%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). 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.
