All goals in first 45. Well that’s clear then ... Afobe out, he cost us the game, not good enough .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe jordans teeth Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 1 hour ago, JamesBCFC said: I think Bentley had a decision to make on the first one. The forward seemed to have the pace vs Peirerra(?), so it was face a 1 on 1, or go early and try to clear the ball first. Obviously by coming out we ended up conceding, but can understand why he made the decision he did. Coming was the right decision but then you leather it up field not bleeding pussyfoot about and slide it sideways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a week ahead in returning to training, and a division above. Would have been concerned if.we got hammered. Agreed. Not sure if posted elsewhere but I heard our next opponents Blackburn lost 6-0 to Liverpool in their warm up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loco Rojo Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 A good test to see what the players do. Let's not forget we're in a pandemic which will be playing in their minds so it will never be like a normal friendly. The result at this point is irelivent. Good that there were no injuries too.

Oh it’s good to be back, picking fault in things If you know, you know . Not only the errors that lead to 2 goals, but his distribution that leads to his save from the chip was ropey, too. Maenpaa is much more your percentages goalkeeper for me, he saves ones he is expected to & uses the ball sensibly. Would be my pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Just to mess with our heads, you get good finishes from Elliasson and O'Dowda, plus some neat play from Palmer... what the hell do we do with them all! 10 minutes ago, JonDolman said: So many different players played there. Could not see Wells so not sure if he is injured. Defending on all 3 goals very bad. And looked wide open at times with other chances they had. Was Weimann in there?

Also in the highlights another piece of poor distribution from Bentley, throwing it straight down the middle and intercepted. He made a good recovery save, but I prefer solid rather than flashy. The Maenpaa club is growing!!, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he certainly has some very bad mistakes in him. We did sign a goalkeeper who lost his place at Brentford because of his mistakes. Maenpaa is more reliable and much better on crosses as well as more sensible with his distribution. And its not like Maenpaa does not make great saves too. A number of games last season he would make some brilliant saves that helped us get the 3 points. I really like Bentley because he has a winners attitude and all the tools to be a top keeper. My concern is that he has a touch of the Joe Hart about him, ie good in every way, except a mental issue, perhaps concentration, or maybe decision making. When he was playing well in the early part of last season, I thought he looked Premier League level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what we may have here is the age old example of a player signed for a good fee by the manager who then puts him in regardless of form. Picking a free transfer in his place would question LJ spending big money on Bentley. I'd like to see NM in goal too if you hadn't guessed already.

Maenpaa is much calmer and just does what's expected of him. I've said he reminds me of Pickford If we can get a couple of million for him I'd sell him, Maenpaa no 1 and Max maybe next season with another older experience one coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I just putting 2 and 2 together when suggesting Bentley’s firm dipped when LJ started talking up “England call-ups”? I like Bentley, but would pick Maenpaa.

Yeah his kicking is usually good bar a couple of times last season. Main problem is rushing out, not pushing shots away from the danger area and maybe handling crosses. Remember a few times he dropped the ball in games but some think it's resulted in any goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he was still referring to how few English keepers there were, the same way Henderson was getting some comments last season for his performances.

Other than his first season where he caught the eye, and perhaps the following season, Hart was always drastically overrated. He would make at least 5 big mistakes a season.
