Only joking. My point was he’s a young modern keeper that plays from the back and made 2 very good saves. Hasn’t got the experience of Nikki obviously. Keeper positions in very good hands imo. No pun intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not being critical of Max, because he covered more than adequately, but he wasn’t up to Mäenpää’s standard (Frankie also upped his game when coming back in too). Max will come back stronger from loan, and suspect Niki will leave next summer and then we have Bentley and O’Leary competing. That is the bigger picture and the succession planning LJ has set out. Gilmartin in not only to allow Max out on loan, but JoJo too....who looks like he’s improved hugely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reminds me of Phillips with that. Anyway, 2 games in so it is what it is. What about the “take” 10 yards out from Roberts long throw today? What other opportunities did he have to claim / command his box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RED4LIFE Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 I personally thought he was good today. Made some decent saves and there was nothing he could do about their goal. One or two misplaced passes but that was all. Is he a better keeper than NM? I honestly dont know, but once he beds in I think he could be excellent. The one thing he doesn't need is fans getting on his back already. Considering what happened to him at Brentford he seems to be a confidence player and the boo-boys giving him stick certainly wont help (does it ever though?)

For what LJ supposedly wants to do with the team, he absolutely is a better keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Thought he was ******* great again. Kicking class. Throwing great too. His save in the second half was superb, Maenpaa doesn’t save that. Seems like a real athlete and also a leader. Screams and shouts to organise all game.

Weimann not that great most of last season. But when he was at the start i was saying he is outstanding. So didn't have a problem when he played well. Just didn't play well enough for me. Bentley awful last season according to every Brentford fan comment or anyone that knows a Brentford fan. So of course I'm concerned he isn't good enough. Bentley had a lot of personal issues last season, similar to Afobe in a way. I believe we were interested in him before Brentford got him from Southend.

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 It's just amazing that it's 'same old same' old from the same old posters who just have a problem with all parts of the club. Our new GK is doing alright but FFS needs a chance to bed in. 54 minutes ago, Lucan said: He's pretty poor for a team wanting play offs.

Based on what I have seen of him prior to this season, so far this season, and what I have read in articles I don’t think he is that good. if he turns out to be super, then feel free to come back and quote me. I’ll gladly eat that humble pie. what I wont do is erase all knowledge of him and pretend I think he is a top keeper just because he happens to have signed for city. That defies logic and I won’t do it. If that means upsetting a few forum denizens then I’ll just have to live with the guilt... Sometimes in life you meet people who you cannot please.

Why can't people just wait before mouthing off about the bloke. He might turn out to be a really bad signing, but he cannot be that YET, I just think it is weird to be knocking him already.
