On long-term scout potential he's rated 19.6, ranking 90th of 107 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (34.6% of available minutes).

Judged on this season alone, Cargill graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 7th of 14 of the 14 full-backs in the League One, on 6 clean sheets and 3.836 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 22 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 11th of 14 of the 14 full-backs in the League One. At 31 Cargill is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.6, Cargill carries the 11th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One of 14. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
