Shuffle Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Get the new big German in as soon as we can as in the last two games at home FF has had 7 shots on target and let in 6! Now not saying all were his fault but come on thats a minimum of 2 points in 2 games if not 4!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One BCFC Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 All 3 against Reading he could have done better. 2nd goal today why was he not coming out for that one? He wasnt good enough in the league under SC and isn't good enough still now. He has far too many flaws at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brady bunch Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Simply not good enough, as said already, second goal had to be his ball.... stayed on his line as normal and left it to others... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 He's a good shot stopper but his lack of height is a major disadvantage when it comes to crosses. A taller keeper would have gone for the cross that gave Cardiff their second goal. I still feel sorry for RO'D who was a major part of our good form last season. As for Lucic, he looks like an accident waiting to happen, of the Claudio Bravo type. Another keeper in addition to Max O'Leary would take us to 5 goalies on the books. Perhaps we should ditch the defence and play all 5 at once!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Just saw second goal again its poor from bryan not sure he can be blamed for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ealing Robin Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Not the massive pessimist, but also just prior to the penalty being given away he should of claimed the ball from the initial cross. He does that and little is not in a position to be trying to win the ball back on his own 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lack of Action Man Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 You can say the keeper should come out, which is fair enough, but in any case to allow your man to get goalside of you as the ball comes in is pathetic defending at the second tier of the English professional game. Can't remember ever having used 4 keepers in one season before (as looks likey will happen). Did we use Basso, Weale, Henderson and Ruddy in the same season or am I remembering wrong?

Taylor10 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 FF is simply not good enough. Fantastic shot stopper but his all round game is nowhere near good enough to be a championship no.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnefcok Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 So important having a good keeper. Probably just as important as having a prolific striker. Can win you 10+ points per season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkRed! Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Both FF and ROD are poor keepers at this level. Both have cost us points this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnumRed Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 A taller goalie saves the 3rd and we draw. The dog fight we could end up that extra point could be the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Fielding's had it I'm afraid. With his obvious injury, ROD should have started last week. It would've given him a chance to stake a claim and give him some much needed confidence & FF more time to recover. That's poor decision making by the coach.

wayne allisons tongues Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 He gets beaten so often from shots outside the box. Makes you wonder if its his reactions or eye sight. Seems to react to late to often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 He has the twitch muscle of a slug...He has no 'spring' or 'jump'...very laboured. He struggled to punch the ball off someone's head yesterday...they could actually get their head as high as his fist....very poor at this level. When diving...watch his legs and feet...it's almost like he falls to the side to dive, rather than 'spring'. So many points lost this season through poor goalkeeping. His positives....good reactions and close range shot stopper....other than that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, most people were happy with ROD at the start of the season and his good performances last season since joining. I don't disagree that both keepers aren't good enough for a promotion chasing team, but I didn't expect us to be that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said before season started we need to improve that area. ROD was OK for us back end of last season, nothing spectacular, couldnt get into Wigan's team. It has come back to haunt us now.
