coxyboy Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Has this been covered? Talking to chaps around me Saturday. Why has happened. I know he made a few cock ups but has something happened we don't know about behind the scenes ? To not even get on the bench suggest he is way down the pecking order and would not be surprised to see him gone next month. Shame as I think he is decent and better then Frank in my opinion. Was Brighton the final straw for LJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Messed up a few games in a row so rightly got replaced, had a chance with Fieldings injury to come back into the team and impress but again he made a mistake. Not going to argue about who's the better keeper because it's been done to death on here. Lucic seems to be highly thought of by LJ so having 3 keepers isn't needed. Ship O'Donnell out on loan with a recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I thought his mistake at Sheffield Wednesday was very suspect. No shock to me when he was dropped immediately after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Simple. LJ doesn't rate him and with Fielding doing well and Lucic seen by him as the future number one I think he will be made available for a move, either on loan or permanently next month. No bust up, no mystery, just based on form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was Brighton the final straw for LJ? If you recall a while back after a few games LJ came out and said that a few players had shown their weaknesses when under pressure. It was at that time that O'Donnell was dropped. Will be off in the January window is my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gl1 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Its shame as when he first came here he looked the bees whatsits, but agree now he looks nervous and prone to mistakes which being a goalkeeper, almost always means a goal. Obvioulsy a confidence player, maybe an arm around his shoulder for a bit will help. LJ does seem to be a good man manager so we will see, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampshire reds Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 The sidwel goal was a poor one to be honest but no one has mentioned Korey smiths part in that goal. poor by him as well. its the worst position to play. if he does move on good luck to him. how good the kid from bayern is only time will tell but he did well against Fulham.

JoeAman08 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 He was number one to start the year and made some mistakes that dropped him down to second choice. Opportunity arose for him to start again and he didn't take the chance. Lucic has been impressing and was moved up to number 2. ROD will have to work hard and get lucky to have another chance to move back up. That's what happens when you have strength in a position. You have to be at your best or you don't play.

Quite rightly he is third choice. Based on what? I don't know if you watch our under 23 games but I really hope you aren't solely basing your opinion on the penalty save at Fulham.

And Its Smith Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Fielding is clearly better than O'Donnell. We have found out why he was a league one reserve keeper before here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjam!n Ultra Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Because he can't be trusted and isn't half the keeper of Fielding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC_Dan Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Fielding is number 1 and Lukic gets useful experience being in the matchday squad. I reckon if Fielding got injured then O'Donnell would be back in and Lukic would stay on the bench, though LJ did say that was a close call last time.

Ivorguy Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Don't forget Max as well as a number three keeper who has already played at first team level. Still believe our first two when we get promotion will be Lucic and O'Leary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One BCFC Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I would like to see Lucic play in the FA Cup 3rd round, he is an imposing stature, looks very confident and like previous posters have said he wouldnt be at Bayern Munich for no reason. O'Donnell has messed up numerous times, cant fault his commitment for the club but you make mistakes at this level and your place will be under threat.

Sarumred Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 There will inevitably be changes for the cup game and providing Lucic is still on the bench over the Christmas/New Year period I think LJ will almost certainly give him game time.
