REDOXO Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 NO ONE Closed down Bannon and invited a free hit. Lj was scathing about that and also the fact that Max didn't get near it. Max has been excellent, however we look more solid with Nick in goal. On another note, we have everything to play for either way. This is not the time for negative threads and defeatist attitude. its time for a sell out crowd. We are always better when we come from behind in these races, so over to the team and LJ to get this done!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 In my view it matters not what fans do or say now. It simply matters whether LJ takes the game to the opposition. Set up to defend at home, or play one up front and we've already lost (or drawn at best) to Derby and its then pretty much over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee dog Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Think Max has done well we have been unlucky with losing both experienced goalkeepers, what really annoys me is not signing two strikers, we lost Duric & Reid & replaced them with Weiman ,. Overall goals wise better than I had hoped, on his day a very good championship player, but only in patches., so for me Weiman has been good value.. still don’t understand why we never brought in another striker, we must of been aware that Duric was looking to leave!! I understand that stransfer don’t fall in to place or players are not available, but feel if we don’t make the play offs we have missed a great opportunity yet again. We could spend millions nest season & not get near the top six,, find this & last session frustrating! Any way on a positive notes we still have a great chance.

If he is still fit, it could even be described as his "prime". At least another couple of seasons would seem reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League games started (so Mäenpää gets credit for the draw at Preston): Mäenpää Started: 25 Won: 9 Lost: 7 Drew: 9 Points per game: 1.44 (36% win ratio) O'Leary Started: 12 Won: 5 Lost: 5 Drew: 2 Points per game: 1.42 (41.6% win ratio) Fielding Started: 5 Won: 4 Lost: 1 Drew: 0 Points per game: 2.40 (80% win ratio) Marinovic Started: 1 Won: 0 Lost: 0 Drew: 1 Points per game: 1.00 (0% win ratio) So, Max comfortably beats Niki on win ratio, but just loses out on (the more important) points per game. Frankie comfortably beats them both though - albeit on a much smaller sample size. So, basically, what I'm trying to say (after numerous edits ) is that there really isn't much between Niki and Max in terms of points per game...
