Ah ok so you've mostly invented a bunch of people in your head and then got weirdly angry at them, got it

Except I haven't, every match thread is rife with these types of comments.

Like I said, I give Max credit when it is due, I've even defended him from over the top criticism on his distribution before.

He's been one of our more solid players this season, usually consistent. 

Every keeper has a howler in them and he's not the best with his feet but he's a very capable shot stopper and controls his box much better than Bentley ever did. 

I don't disagree, and haven't argued against any of this.

I'm just pushing back against his fan club who far overrate even his most basic saves.

I am not convinced he's a goalkeeper for a side that gets promoted from this division, at least not in autos. But I don't think an upgrade is the most urgent priority either.

Desire…….i see none of it.

What are they playing for? This is where our leadership should be motivating and inspiring us to turn up and perform...... truth is they themselves don't understand what they want....

Hope to god it isn’t an own goal 

The tea leaves aren't being specific

Just really strange how we've struggled with the wind more than Sunderland. 

We've definitely struggled with Sunderland's effort and energy, which is frustrating. 

I'll gladly take a point though.

This has to be one of the worst displays from us this season, and there have been some real bad ones.

It hasn't been great but conditions have been a big factor in that.

Easy excuse. Sunderland have managed. 
 

If it’s really windy, here’s a ******* idea, pass the ball on the deck. Not rocket science.

If we had eleven outfield players capable of automatic promotion Max would be fine in goal. He wouldn’t let us down, as today and many other examples this season has shown.
