Scout report
J. Cumming is a 26-year-old goalkeeper at Oxford United, rated 62.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 160th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cumming.
Judged on this season alone, Cumming graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 44 of the 44 goalkeepers in the Championship, on 8 clean sheets across 46 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 28 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 63, top 30% of the 44 goalkeepers in the Championship. At 26 Cumming is in his prime years, and a market index of 29 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Oxford United finished 22nd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
8 clean sheets in 46 appearances (17% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 62.9, Cumming carries the 13th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Championship (top 30%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Oxford United finished 22nd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
