cowleyred Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 I have to say city have usually got a half decent keeper but the 3 we have are not up to it.I have just watched Parrish's boob for Newport ,the other 2 we have are very poor.Ever since David James came, it is the one position we lack in class.

red mist Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Our Defence would make any keeper have the jitters. Its chicken and egg, does a good defence inspire a keeper or vice versa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Heaton was our best player last season without question, anyone who blamed him for all the goals we were conceding were deluded or didn't go to games. No surprise to see him doing so well at Burnley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCMarcus Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 It's not our keepers that are the problem it is the Defence we have never been solid since before David James came in! We can push up the leagues again if we sort out our defence!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 If Heaton was poor why did a team at the top of the Championship want him? He was excellent for us. They weren't top when they signed him though were they? I think Heaton was steady for us but he is very over rated by some on here. Wasn't helped by a desperately poor defence mind.

BRISTOL86 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Heaton poor? He was just about the only one to come out of last season with any modicum of credit! He's first choice for a team who will likely be in the premier league next season and he is poor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 It's not our keepers that are the problem it is the Defence we have never been solid since before David James came in! We can push up the leagues again if we sort out our defence!! Is the defence always the problem? The defence have no confidence in Fielding, he never comes out for crosses, never takes the pressure off the defenders, if we had a decent goalkeeper I'm 100% certain we'd be at least mid table by now.. Is it a coincidence that Shrewsbury affectively had 2 shots and they both went in?? That Gillingham once again had one shot and it goes in??

Fielding to an extent is a valid scapegoat but the circus defending at times cannot be blamed on him. Both goals yesterday could of been prevented before the ball even reached him.

In midfield we have little to no aggression and bite, and up top we have no-one to hold the ball and relieve pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a coincidence that Shrewsbury affectively had 2 shots and they both went in?? That Gillingham once again had one shot and it goes in?? Fielding was left exposed by the non tackling centre midfield and the non defending defence for the first goal, and for the second the bloke should never of been allowed to get the cross over from so tight to the goal line. I'm no big fan but he did come out for crosses, catching a few and punching a couple. Might as well stick with him for now. No,Tom Heaton looked poor but now seems great at Burnley.James was the start of our demise.Bring back Basso or God ! Basso shit on us when we needed him most, and he's done well since hasn't he!

Coincidence Hardly just down to Heaton though is it? Collectively as a team they have been superb and Heaton is a big part of that. He was a good steady keeper for us but was far from spectacular. He wasn't helped by possibly the worst defence I've seen but people talk about Heaton as if he's one of the greatest keepers we've ever had.
