Saints doing well . Everyone I know was excited, enthusiastic about yesterday’s game. As I’ve said before, as people on this forum, they need a scapegoat something to moan about. Of course, Bazunu is an obvious target

That, or they are simply attending matches and giving opinion about what they see on the park.  Everyone I know has been doing that every season I have supported Saints, including the season we finished runners up in the top flight.

Question for those criticising goalkeeper performances  -and NOT Bazunu specific.

If you’re a Birmingham fan do you come away from yesterday raging about their GK and conceding the second, or praising him for preventing it being 5 or 6 ?

Both - some fine saves above average but should do better on AA’s first and arguably on his second pushing Leo’s shot wider to narrow AA’s window to score. In the same way it’s not inconsistent to say Gray’s shot was very hard to save but maintaining Bazunu and McCarthy are liabilities to be dealt with in January.

Yeah there was good and bad. Shouldn't have let in Arma's first goal, but did very well to prevent him getting a hat trick later on, and also did very well to come out and close down Archer from his breakaway run near the end.

If it had been Bazunun in goal for Sutton last night in the FA Cup, some people would be blaming him for Shrewsbury's second goal.

Can we not do that anyway?

Plus two good saves from Scienza first half.

Well that would involve adding supernatural qualities, and only the Bazunettes are allowed to do that.

Are they the short skirted cheerleaders who drop the pom poms and each other in the pitchside rituals before the game ?

I genuinely think he is improving last few games. I’d still rank him as a lower half Championship keeper, but previously he was a league one gk.

Still worries me with his positioning and he’s way too quiet. I’ve seen defenders call for him to get the ball and he should be bellowing at them and claiming it or telling them to stfu as it’s his call. Hopefully this comes with confidence

Yes but they all have Bazunu's face

He absolutely hammered Manning yesterday in the second half, can’t remember what for, but really went at him. Manning waved him away as clearly wasn’t happy about it. Does seem a bit better the last few games, maybe it’s the beard he’s growing.

Think it was when Manning fell over, claimed a foul and Brum almost scored with a deflected shot that Bazunu, having already dived, just managed to stop with his leg
