WILLIAM FORRESTER
Defender · Leyton Orient · League One
“Straightforward centre-back who keeps the game simple and secure.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
Forrester is a centre back in his prime, still building toward his peak. Bolton and Leyton Orient showed his level, but league context and an unsettled starting place keep his value restrained.

Analysis overview
Forrester is a no-frills centre-back who reads danger early and deals with it cleanly. He holds his ground, clears his lines decisively, and keeps England’s back line compact rather than chasing unnecessary adventure. In possession, he stays measured and functional, choosing the safe pass and protecting shape over flair.
