Beany71 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Shot stopping is what most goalkeepers are good at. What makes a great keeper in my opinion is one that can command his area and can take the ball. This takes so much pressure of the defence. He reminds me is Chris woods from years ago. Still don't agree with slating him at the match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentwalker Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Nothing particularly wrong but I think it's the fact he doesn't seem to be learning from previous shortcomings. For example not commanding his area and catching crosses. And also his thinking process in quickly turning defence into attack. A number of times reach or someone would sprint clear down the line, meanwhile Dawson's still thinking about the save he just made and not the next ball.

He has one of the best save percentages in the division. its not his fault that he is clearly under instruction to play it short at every opportunity.

Guest LittleG Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Even the most hardened of Dawson admirers have got to admit his handling/punching has been iffy to say the least this season. That's what worries people. We know hes a young lad but sometimes it gets to the stage where they have to be taken out of the limelight to protect them; this could apply to Penney also. The problem we face is that our squad is so threadbare we haven't got many options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place he was getting beaten was a yard inside his back stick. It went within two inches of the back post, low and hard. if he’d have saved that it would have been an absolute wonder save. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave it. It's like watching an hamster on a wheel and getting nowhere. KW is a dead subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Very good shot stopper but can’t catch a cold. There is a huge development for him on dealing with crosses, high balls and commanding his area. It’s definitely a problem at the moment and it needs addressing in training. He wasnt at fault for our 2 goals last night, however the above issues have been evident all season in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside_Owl Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 It doesn't help that people are expecting instant improvement on the areas of his game that definitely need work. It's not going to be a quick process to change that area of his game. In might take most of this season, and guess what that will be the huge bonus of having a year in the first team now.

Blatter Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 1 hour ago, Pale Rider said: He was not responsible for the goals, but I suggest you watch the game again because he didn’t play well, seemed somewhat edgy. The way that defence played last night would have made any keeper edgy. They were shockingly bad, constantly passing back and putting him under pressure rather than taking responsibility to clear their lines. Two schoolboy errors lost that game, neither of them caused by Dawson. Palmer took most of the first half before he managed to pass to a team mate. Penney kept getting caught in possession Lees looked terrified with the ball at his feet.....and that supposed backpass. Thornilly had a reasonable game but inexplicably lost possession after letting a high ball bounce in front of him for the first goal. I’ll excuse Hector because he was clearly instructed to push up into midfield. In short please don’t single out a promising young keeper for a situation completely outside his control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Randolf flapped at more last night than Dawson did Carson very nearly cost Derby 2 points tonight by dropping a very simple catch All keepers make, in hindsight, wrong decisions...all keepers make mistakes apart from Westwood obviously who in many eyes is some sort of gene therapy combination result from Banks, Yashin and Shilton Edited October 20, 2018 by Ian 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bizarre thought process. i have yet to see a goalkeeper that can cover the entire goal. His positioning was perfect. if he’d have stood further to his right he’d have been exposed at his near post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
