Galway saint

I don’t understand people saying they think he will be fine in the championship but wasn’t good enough for the PL. I don’t know what his level is but it isn’t part of in team that wants to challenge for promotion back to the PL.

It should be too or near the top. Why do you think he will be fine ? I don’t get it when people say that. The goals in the championship are the same size, the shots as hard and he’s still small for a keeper with poor positional sense and command of his box. He’s doesn’t make many saves. He’s a liability

Fear you are right and if so shows they haven’t learnt the lessons of last year

Suspect we will end up with a flurry of outgoings towards the end of the window and a few incomings from Swansea and that will be it. There might also be a few loans of journeymen/kids no one has heard of. I don’t know why after the last 18 months anyone expects a positive window. I also fully expect bazunu to still be in goal when we kick off against the Owls

He was total shite in the context of the premier league. I accept he can hold his own at Sunday leave level

He’s not good enough - why would he be any better than last year when he was total shite ? We are crying out for an experienced goalkeeper who can make saves and command his box

What makes you think they are on it ? At no point to date have they been anywhere near it

I’m happy to be proven wrong but I doubt we will ever be talking about bazanu being world class. At the moment I’d settle for him being championship class but I don’t think he is

“World class keeper” Really ? He was really poor last season and was one of the worst in the top European leagues for shot stopping. He cost us a lot of points and gained us hardly any. We need a new keeper if we want to challenge for promotion.

Let’s be clear if we want to make a good first of coming back up we need a new keeper. We were shit last season and bazanu was a major part of that. I hear people say he will come good and maybe he will but I have seen little evidence of that. He doesn’t make many saves and therefore he doesn’t win us many points.

Shame Armstrong isn’t on the bench - the game is crying out for him

The competition is dire but I agree. The idea that he shouldn’t be one of the squad of forwards is a joke when you compare the rest and the type of player we will attract.

You wonder at what level that team today would be competitive ? Clearly not premier league but I am not sure it’s even championship quality. Perhaps mid table league one but having watched Peterborough last night think they’d murder us in terms of pace and power. We are such a weak and insipid team. We’ve become a joke really.

Think the Peterborough side would murder us. Football at pace and with power and width.

Fair question. In my view he’s not shown enough to warrant bearing with hiM in the championship in the hope he improves. He doesn’t have great agility, reflexes or positional sense. If he did but made a few howlers then you would persevere but I don’t feel he has shown enough;others may disagree. I wouldn’t want him to be our number 1 next season.

He’s a poor keeper at this level. They both are. We need to look at how to improve a poor team and a decent keeper has to be a priority.

Defensively we look awful

Keeper should have done better

Yes it’s crazy - one of the main reasons for our demise

Can’t really complain at that line up Perhaps sulemana for Walcott

Look forward to seeing who has won the who gets to play up front for Southampton this week competition. Am going for a Mara return with adam Armstrong and sulemana for more disjointed rubbish

Wasn’t the worst but WH away was so insipid and slow and boring - it was unwatchable at times and just so desperately shit Think I gave up then as I could barely watch it’s scary there have been so many shit games and we are so far off premiership quality it’s unreal.

We have become so uncompetitive in this league; it’s not even close really despite all the 1-0s. The fact that we are still playing Adam Armstrong says it all. I still think we are better than our points total but the constant pissing around and tinkering with the team means there is no cohesiveness, it’s just slow disjointed football. The subs yesterday were a joke and why he didn’t start with Adams is just baffling. Given how uncompetitive we are next season looks a struggle already to me.

Pleased he’s gone without a striker - overrated in the modern game

Not long now to see what the random forward generator spews out this week
