Galway saint

why does JB have to force his way back in ? didn’t do anything wrong and was part of a very successful and settled back four

Yes I think the goal movements is about all there is. In the Ipswich game the commentary team said 10 of our goals had started from Bazanu. No idea how that compares to other keepers - guess that’s another statistic!

in this particular case what is it that the stats don’t show us that is interesting ?

he’s a crap keeper for this level that’s about it really

You can be a good keeper in a shit team You can be a bad keeper in a good team Baz is the latter The lad at rotherham is the former We all want saints to be a better team so let’s get a new and better keeper

might be a few interested but you would have thought £5million would do it

I read he would be an available for £5-6Million but could be bollocks - seems about right though for a championship keeper

or we just get a decent keeper - that wouldn’t solve it but it would make a big difference

difficult to assess without a replay but thought baz should have come for that

Constant chopping and changing with no method to it He seems to have no idea of his best team whereas to most it’s pretty obvious Baz ( least shit) KWP JB THB Bree Downes Aribo Stu Frazer Adams AArmstrong

he’s an average coach

why can’t we afford to sack him ?

I’d play stephens in goal if he has to play

RM can either produce a seat of the pants game ( huddersfield, birmingham, ipswich) or a dull turgid game ( huddersfield away, blackburn away). he seems incapable of consistently delivering a team that controls and wins games. the last time we achieved that was WBA.

Think he will say we needed to be braver on the ball

despite losing to Ipswich twice i feel we could win that not sure we could beat leeds or leicester

No one to hold the ball up and good to see Baz still there

Our recruitment from City has been poor, with the exception of Lavia. None of those players have proven to be good championship players and they were bought for the PL. Suppose we have to reserve judgment on Larios as he hasn’t played in the championship

He was initially a winger back in his Shamrock youth days, transitioning into a keeper later into his development. quote above from a 2022 article think this explains a lot and why he doesn’t really have the necessary goalkeeping attributes; in substance he’s an average outfield player who now plays in goal maybe we try him on the wing for the rest of the season and see how he goes. might be more effective than edozie

Just listened to adam and joe going home and heard the RM interview from Monday wasn’t enamoured with his comments about KWP and there are no ‘superstars’ in the team - well at this level he is a superstar and has given us a year of his career and 100 % effort when a lot of others would have sulked and forced a move.

That’s not an encouraging video

we aren’t good enough without the ball. whether that’s the players or the coaching I don’t know but all season the midfield balance hasn’t felt right and I think that’s as much the formation as anything. I know he’s not great on the ball but we have tended to look more compact when charles has played. as for the stephen’s libero role wtf is that about

I think we will see a change on Saturday albeit given Lumley is said to be the worst QPR keeper in recent years it might be short lived… Didnt get Baz get dropped at a similar stage of the season last year for being shit ? the other thing i really don’t get is when people say Baz has potential or will be at his peak in six years or so. I’ve seen nothing since he joined us to suggest he will be a top level keeper. he doesn’t seem to have any of the attributes of a top level keeper but maybe someone who doesn’t make saves is the future of goalkeeping; a sort of anti-goalkeeper.

so our no 1 is saints worst keeper in years/decades and our no 2 is QPRs worst keeper in years - fucking great ! you could lot make it up. we should get rid of whoever is in charge of recruitment…

I’d like to think Fraser will stay but maybe that depends on RM’s future ? Would I take another season of RM if we could keep fraser ? Tough one….
