It is amazing the difference a top quality keeper can make and we’ve seen it so many times before!  Boruc arriving on a free turned us from relegation fodder into a mid table team.  Niemi took us up a step from Paul Jones and this season we’ll talk about night and day.

This isn't to discredit Pertez in any way, as I love the bloke, but we're not even talking about the difference between an average GK and a top quality goalkeeper here. It's simply the difference between having no goalkeeper and an actual goal keeper.

Don’t believe that for a minute, if they’d said flapped at a wall there might be something in it. Punched, no way…

Crisp packet punch.

 

It's an anti-injury technique.

Congratulations on your promotion Cardiff...

...and Commiserations on your relegation next season!

 

Seriously that we could still get money for Baz blows my mind. 

What do you mean?

24 years old so his best years are still to come. He already has 22 caps for Ireland where he’s kept MANY clean sheets. Played in the premier league, highly experienced in the championship where he’s has won a promotion plus experience of a European league 

he’d be a truly fantastic signing for someone

Cardiff will be lucky to sign him, a gem of a goalie, they should push hard now before competition hots up.

Didn't he save a penalty from CHRISTIANO RONALDO once?

Indeed he did. Interesting fact, CHRISTIANO RONALDO has scored more international penalties than any other player ever. It's fortunate for everyone that Ireland FAILED to qualify for the world cup and Baz's talents can continue under the radar for now, shame for Baz though that he wont be able to demonstrate his awesome play out from the back in front of the watching world

Two years ago Ryan Fraser was tearing Championship defences to shreds,  Adam Armstrong was banging them in and Jan Bednarek was a rock at CB

And Baz was letting in unstoppable shots that nobody could save.

In terms of goals prevented, Baz is bottom again for the fourth season running, although there is some improvement. Even though he is still the worst keeper in the league, this is actually his best season statistically, as he has conceded fewer goals than expected compared to previous years.

His long pass completion% and crosses claimed are also bottom of the league.

I’m not sure why some people here dismiss the stats. This is an unprecedented level of sustained underperformance in professional football.

Don't listen to this rubbish.

He'll be a fantastic goalkeeper for you Cardiff, and a bargain at £10 million.

Year on year improvement is great to see. Slow and steady wins the race. Given time he could Quite easily become the second or even third worst keeper in the league.

You will never ever see a game played with one side being given a handicap, it's just such an amateur idea and would never get off the ground in the professional game.

How many times did Baz play for us.

Talking of which he'll be back as our number one keeper next season after this shit show.

The worst bit is there's a real possibility that the turd who won't flush Gavin Bazunu will be lining up for us again.

We shouldn't have sent him out on loan, we could have just sent him out as the spy instead. One way to have got rid of him. Small enough to be hidden behind a tree, he may have dropped the IPhone though.

He would probably go to the wrong training ground and spy on the wrong team!

Niemi played in a legends game on the IOW last week, get him back.

Is he returning when Peretz gets sold?

Peretz will return to Bayern when his loan finishes as the purchase clause is dependent on promotion.

Although it would be a major boost for SR's reputation (if they're still here) with the fans to bring him in permanently. Not that I'm holding my breath.

Thank fuck Peretz stayed. Could be 2 or 3 now with Baz. 

The Hologram wouldn’t have saved any of those trio. Very rusty so far, like an opening pre season fixture.

https://www.echo.ie/celtic-and-zagreb-eye-bazunu-move/ 

LONG speculated for a move away from Southampton this summer, Firhouse native Gavin Bazunu has been linked with a move to Croatian champions Dinamo Zagreb as well as Scottish Champions Celtic before the deadline day.

The 24 year old will be out of contract at the end of the season and while Southampton will likely only receive a fraction of the €12 million they paid Manchester City for Bazunu’s services four years ago, he would represent a decent saving on the wage budget should they be able to move him on.

God, only four years ago? It's felt like ten.

Celtic? 😂 Their fans will eat him alive the first clanger he drops.

Bolton are sniffing around him apparently.

Let me just say to anyone from Bolton - he's a world-beater, if you can get him for £1m then you've got a steal. He's a potential superstar.

Fantastic signing for Bolton

Yeah, gutted about this.  We simply can't keep selling our best players.  Obviously you can understand his head has been turned and you can't begrudge him a move like this but it's put a real dampener on the season now.  Any luck we'll be able to resign him at some point in his career but that's probably a pipe dream.  Good luck Gavin and thanks for the save (it was just the one wasn't it?).

I will miss him. Will go down as the most unlucky keeper in Saints history. Never seen a keeper face so many unstoppable shots or get such unlucky bounces or deflections. Hope his luck changes at Bolton sure it will 👍
