Scout report
J. Williams is a 29-year-old defensive midfielder at Bristol City, rated 30.5 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (1.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 6 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Williams.
On the season, Williams graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 6 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31. At 29 Williams is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Williams missed 17 games through injury (hamstring, injured, ankle) out of roughly 46 this season. The 2 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Bristol City finished 12th of 24 · a mid-table side
6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 2 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 1.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 30.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
