It’s infinitely better. Wildsmith seems to duff at least one clearance nearly every single game. Westwood might not hit the mark up the pitch that often, but he rarely puts us under pressure with his kicking. I can remember a handful of of occasions throughout his entire career with us, not a handful a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, like Wildsmith, needs more games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Wildsmith is 22 ,very young for a goalkeeper Plenty of time to get better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookeh Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 What I like about Wildsmith is that in addition t being a solid keeper (which Westwood also is), Wildsmith doesn't have those bizarre moments of madness that Westwood has. The other team actually has to beat Wildsmith every week, where as, as good as Westwood is, some weeks he would just go crazy and do something utterly stupid or give away a pen etc. Wildsmith seems a lot more stable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I think we could do no worse than seeing if we could get some cash in for Westwood and keep wildsmith and Dawson as our 1/2 next season also would help the ffp situation out as kieron is probably on what the two young lads are getting paid put together and I for one am preferring the idea of promoting the younger players and looking to the future rather than the past with some of our recent signings of old crocks.

jordyowl Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 typical Wednesday fan bugging up because he’s ‘one of our own’ I like him, he’s a good goalkeeper, but he’ll never leave the championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 He’s very good, I personally prefer Dawson of the two but Wildsmith has had a very good year. Westwood has been a brilliant keeper for us but it’s a no brainer to sell him now, he still has value and he won’t need replacing and the two we have will improve with game time in this league. Not a dog at Westwood at all but think this makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a dog at Westwood at all but think this makes sense I admit to not really being a blessing to pick one or the other to be fair, both Dawson and wildsmith are very different keepers. Dawson has probably a better distribution, command of his area, he's also seems quite a confident that bit of the eccentricity keepers have is there too a bit of a character. Wildsmith on the other hand is more of a shot stopper that's good at one vs one's. He seems more level headed with a quiet, but confident demeanour.

trask43 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Time for dawson to play until the end of the season, wildsmiths a good prospect and has had some excellent games this season but hes a long way from a first choice championship keeper his kicking and command of his area need alot of work. In an ideal world play dawson until the end of the season and let him be no2 to westwood next year, wildsmith would benefit from a year as no1 in league 1.

Westwood is excellent Torry.. there's no doubting that... top notch. I think the keeper debate has been coloured by the fact that we need to get some cash in sharpish. WTF!?

WTF!? you have to balance it, is say whatever we can get for westwood worth more than the extra points we'll get with him in instead of wildsmith ........i'm sure if we stick with wildsmith he'll gradually cut down on the errors as he gains more experience but are we a good enough team to contend with a keeper who costs us goals while he learns . probably not imo .
