The 26-year-old plays his holding midfield role well, but he has not delivered EPL assists or goals. Based on this performance it will only be a matter of time before he makes direct contributions to goals.

Gets 14 minutes in draw Yates (hamstring) played 14 minutes off the bench in Saturday's scoreless draw against Crystal Palace.

Impact Yates was back in the squad Saturday following a minor hamstring tweak and he'll hope to get back to 100 percent following the break.

It's a long-term nagging issue that means Yates could struggle to return even after the international break.

Dealing with hamstring injury Yates has not played the last two matches because of a hamstring injury, according to manager Steve Cooper.

Impact Yates wasn't even mentioned prior to Sunday's match, but his hamstring apparently was bugging him against Manchester City and he didn't play against them. Cooper has often hid or lied about injuries in the past, so this isn't anything new, but it's a bad sign for Yates as the new signings have already taken over his prior role.

Assists twice in first PL season Yates recorded two assists on seven chances created and kept five clean sheets in 26 appearances (21 starts) this past season

Impact Yates had a decent first season in the Premier League, as he recorded two assists and kept five clean sheets in 26 appearances. It's undoubtedly a downgrade from his eight goals in the Championship during the 2021-2022 season, but it takes time to adjust to the higher level of competition. He only made 21 starts but missed 12 matches due to various injuries, so if he can remain healthy next season his overall production will likely improve.
