83owl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Terrible keeping. If Dawson had made the errors he has at Millwall and today everyone would be calling for his head. He got two full hands on the ball, should have caught it and his reaction tells you that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also for not clearing/stopping it before it got to Westwood? It does look like a flap by Westwood, but that ball shouldn't have go to him. Those balls do end up going in though, especially from a side with the quality Fulham have got GK is last line of defence and he should have done better, and am certain KW won’t need telling , he’s his own biggest critic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's probably even more worrying is how poor his kicking is at the moment, and it was never great to start with. Before Carlos got the boot he'd started that season poorly, last year he was great when he came back (Leeds game in particular he was a colossus) however this season he's been making too many errors. It's a weird situation as he is pretty much undroppable as we have two young understudies rather than a seasoned pro pushing him like when Kirkland was here. A difficult one, but he needs to improve. His kicking has been poor, Dawson's kicking is very poor as well, both could improve vastly in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwood has a lot on his plate usually providing coaching instructions to two of our back line. A lot grumbling today but more about not releasing long on enough occasions; Playing out and finishing with hoof ball anyway. But that is not Westwood, that is Monk.

LoadABallacks Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Just watched the highlights. Rubbish goalkeeping and I’m sure Westwood would be the first to hold his hands up. still a quality keeper but far from his best so far this season.

Coming across as a bit of an apologist here chief, he's been poor and needs to improve, he'd probably tell you the same himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthowl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I thought at the time that the goal was down to Harris losing possession too easily and with the team heading forward. A quick cross field pass; where was Odubajo? Out of position due to Harris or because he's poor? And then a superb cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Probably not one of the worst errors ever, just not the best decision making for someone so experienced. I don't think he's been up to his usual high standards at all this season. Let's just hope he gets these mistakes out of his system early with out costing us too much and is back bang on form in the business end of the season after Christmas and where still there or there abouts.

Was way too close to him to flap at. I think he was too put off by the players trying to get in close to the ball. Regardless of bad defending a keeper of Westwoods quality should be dealing with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Harris gave the ball away but there is alot of play before the goal, at the match I didn't think there was much Westwood could do, it seemed like it was a wicked bouncing cross, however on the replay I think he could have caught it!

horny owl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Westwood is a bit overrated by many owls fans IMO He’s not the worst keeper in the championship but he’s nowhere near the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyno9 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Didn’t help that odubajo was woeful in his positional sense today. Particularly 1st half. Kept giving their left sided attacker 20/25 yards of space on the cross field ball. They targeted Moses and it paid off for the goal. That said Westwood should have done better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really know what ur on about Nev ? I’ve seen both KW and Dawson play this season , firmly believe Cameron Dawson will be No 1 here in not too distant future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way is S6 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 It's a keeper error all day long. Could have caught it imo. His reaction reads; guilty as charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffolk.Owl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Catch it, punch it away anywhere but don't softly parry it to the penalty spot!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinowl Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I like KW and rate him but clear error and as already pointed out his reaction says it all. He didn’t even try to catch it. The parry out was a bad error of judgement. Just catch it or at least try. Poor decision making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob1601 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I’d say that all 3 of our keepers have suffered with Andy Rhodes leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
