Across 20 appearances as a replacement, Hill has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive output, averaging over six tackles per match and crossing 127 in total — a volume that points to a consistently high work-rate whenever introduced. His carrying is limited in frequency, though his best showings demonstrate he can contribute with ball in hand when called upon. The data paints a picture of a specialist impact forward whose primary value lies in defensive solidity rather than attacking threat.
