Squad depthDefensive midfielder

O. Moxon is a 28-year-old defensive midfielder at Stockport County, rated 34 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 303rd of 481 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (45.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.56 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Moxon.

Judged on this season alone, Moxon graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 63 of the 63 defensive midfielders in the League One, on 3 goals, 1 assist and 3.561 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 23). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 50th of 63 of the 63 defensive midfielders in the League One. At 28 Moxon is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 45.9% 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 34, Moxon carries the 50th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League One of 63. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
