Judged on this season alone, Mahoney graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 10th of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the League One, on 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 12). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

3 clean sheets in 11 appearances (27% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (5th of 24) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 47.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 45.2, Mahoney carries the 3rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League One of 23 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
