Moulden Assists... 5! 16:05 - Dec 28 with 3017 views

Just hear the interview with Louie apparently he now has 5 assists...
This propelled me to Google.. and from the Liverpool website...

"Since the founding of the current English top flight in 1992, only eight goalkeepers have laid on three or more goals for their team-mates.

In the past 30 years, only three – Paul Robinson (five), Pepe Reina (four) and David Seaman (four) – have assisted more times than Alisson, who is level with Mark Crossley, Tim Howard, Jussi Jaaskelainen and Peter Schmeichel".
1. Paul Robinson – 5*
=2. Pepe Reina – 4
=2. David Seaman – 4
=3. Alisson – 3*
=3. Mark Crossley – 3
=3. Tim Howard – 3*
* denotes scoring a goal

No 'apparently' about it. There's a table of assists in every issue of TVOS...

Anyway, his assists are:

v Woking (a) for Sinclair
v Barnet (h) for Sinclair
v Hartlepool (a) for Hayes
v AFC Fylde (h) for Henderson
v AFC Fylde (h) for Oduroh

Chris Beech makes a good point in his post-match interview when he says every time their keeper got the ball, we had a player in front of him stopping a quick release (as it were), whereas his players didn't do the same for Moulden. I bet they do on Monday!

Three other players also have five assists - Clayton, Keohane (as well as his six goals; what a fantastic contribution he makes) and Mitchell (10 goals).

When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

I wonder, despite the fact that he’s only played half a season, where Moulden will be ranked in the pantheon of good Dale keepers?
As far back as I can remember there has always been a fairly decent keeper at Spotland:

Ted Burgin
Les Green
Chris Harker
Tony Godfrey
Mike Poole
David Felgate
Keith Welch
Martin Hodge
Neil Edwards
Matt Gilks
Josh Lillis
Bobby Sanchez

I’m sure that other people will have other names in mind.

Moulden is by far the most skilful and best distributor out of all of them though.

A huge concern to read about the release clause in his loan deal from this article published last week:

https://www.shropshirestar.com/sport/football/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/2023/12

"Moulden was courted by League clubs in the summer and has a release clause in his loan deal at Rochdale this winter.

It is also understood that League Two clubs are interested again and have made their initial interest known, while Wolves would be keen to move Moulden up a level for a further test. But the player himself is not actively looking for a move and has learned to focus on the present."
