Alessandro Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 LJ didn't name a keeper on the bench at Boro and said that the chances of needing a sub keeper is around a 1-5% chance. Apparently "a couple" of our outfield players started their footballing careers as goalkeepers and could come in if needed: So vs. Wigan and Max goes off - who takes the gloves? Kalas? Pack?

cidercity1987 Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 1-5% chance of disaster seems a lot higher than the % gain of having a 7th outfielder on the bench of which 4 cannot play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you put a % gain on having an extra option on the bench? One extra option on the bench can then mean multiple extra options when it comes to making a change.

Can you put a % gain on having an extra option on the bench? One extra option on the bench can then mean multiple extra options when it comes to making a change. If it happened for 1% of the time that would mean we’d need a sub keeper for 41 mins per season and if it happened for 5% of the time then we’d need a sub keeper for 207 minutes per season...I think what you were getting at James was that if it happened 1% of the time it equates to less than a full game over two seasons? It’s still a rare occurrence - and always funny to see an outfield player don the gloves - I’ve seen Tinnion, Louis Carey and Rob Newman do just that!

Globe Trotter Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 as it’s only Wigan I’m confident if anything happens to Max then LJ himself could go in goal, sitting in a deckchair with a can of Natch in his hand. 5-0 city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh1t_ref_again Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 I often thought this are you better having another outfield player option on the bench rather than a keeper getting splinters, particularly if you have a capable outfield player to cover. Their was talk the new keeper came off early in the behind close doors game, so maybe injured, that bad a keeper or had a bust up with LJ. If any of these are the case not sure we would come out and let our rivals know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A outfield player in goal will be worse than someone who plays non league. If I were a fit keeper at City, if the Kiwi is, I’d be fuming that I’ve spent years learning my trade (no jokes please) and they would stick anyone in if Max got injured. Just seems an unnecessary risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastside Moonwalker Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 I'd keep one on, just given how unlucky we have been with injuries. However, I would probably give Jojo a go on the bench instead of playing the other guy.. hasn't looked good thus far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, being a bit harsh on the lad, just don't really fancy seeing performances like that on the reg if we want to stay in the playoffs, hopefully he has a better game next time he plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berkshire Red Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 25 minutes ago, JamesBCFC said: He's had one game so far... Remember Frankie's debut? Was far worse. Problem is Frankie came in with Championship experience and we knew he was a capable keeper at that level. There's a reason the New Zealander has been playing German Third & Fourth Tier football his whole career, bar one season in the MLS before being released. I think we knew Frankie had an off day, I don't think this other keeper gets any better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems an unnecessary risk. I do wonder whether a few players were carrying knocks from Sheffield United on the Saturday and Lee was more worried about them than Max getting injured. Kalas and Weimann were both struggling near the end of the United game, and Korey had only just come back (albeit didn’t start v Boro). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Most games you won't need to even think about bringing on your sub keeper. Most games. This season we've used 4 goalkeepers, and how many times have we had to subsitute one because of injury? With our luck recently, I'd be sticking one on the bench regardless. Even if it is the Calamitous Kiwi. Unless of course LJ knows for sure that Max's voodoo doll was definitely the cause for the other 3's problems.....

I thought he wasn't as bad as some are making out. He had a couple of heavy touches with his feet probably because the speed of the championship caught him out. He also had a bit of a flap at a cross and booted a couple out of play ala Frankie. Other than that I thought he did ok. He needs a bit of time to get up to speed and I was surprised he was given a start over Max tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, the kicking magnified the criticism....a bit of a flap in a very windy game (once)....generally his handling was fine. The pace of the Champ is a shock to a lot of players. He made a very good save to his left in the second half. He is no mug, but his work on the ball needs to improve - quickly. At the end if the day, beggars can’t be choosers outside of the window, and hypothetically we did very well to bring in a guy of his background at the point of the season we were at. And finally, LJ shouldn’t have picked him over Max, so close to his arrival / being on trial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
