On the season, Cannon graded 22 for current form (age-blind), on 6 goals and 2 assists in 36 appearances (0.417 involvements per 90).

6 goals in 36 appearances (0.17 per game) for a mid-table side. Add 2 assists for 8 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.42 goal contributions per 90 (0.31 goals, 0.1 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 64.1 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.42 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
