WalthamOwl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) I like Dawson, think he’s a decent enough keeper, should he be our long term number 1? I’m undecided, however if Westwood was in goal last weekend and he conceded 5 goals he would have been crucified on here, whether the goals where his fault or not.

Should concentrate our hate and venom for other positions. Have you seen the goals on Saturday and some that we’ve conceded earlier in the season? I like Dawson but saying we have three quality goalkeepers is pushing it. We have two keepers with potential still with a bit to improve on. We have one keeper who has been class but is probably past his best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have more pressing problems than the goalkeeping position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyTrev Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Couldn’t care less about Forestieri if I’m being honest, good to see Palmer is making good progress though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 So Westwood has an ego that can't take being second fiddle. It's a bit crap but he is already here. Do I, as a manager relying on results to keep my job: A.Allow him to wallow in self pity but not totally p him off as I may need him. B. Freeze him out and never play him again. Simple as that. Jos tried B. Monk is going A. Theres some downsides but that's management. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dewsburyowl58 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 If Westwood is refusing to be a reserve surely he’s breaking his contract and can be sacked ? Isn’t that how it is ? . I’m not convinced he is refusing not till I hear it from him . As good as Dawson has been he clearly needs work on his distribution and composure with the ball at his feet when under pressure he looks nervous to me but he is otherwise a decent keeper .

Yes, because Dawson never got crucified when he conceded goals last season... Westwood is actively refusing to sit on the bench. Embarrassing from a professional.

Guest Ash76 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) There’s a Sheffield Star article that says the stats between Dawson and Westwood are close. As I pointed out on Twitter measure mistakes made this season and Dawson rightly has the spot. Reading between the lines Westwood has got face on about it and is being a bit of an egotistical pr1ck. Such a shame we offered him a new deal, I said at the time I wouldn’t bother. Unfortunately we’re likely to be stuck with him another 18 months. I mean who the hell would take a mardy, injury prone player that’s full of mistakes off our hands when they’ll cost you £1m a year?

If that's the case, more reason to get an injured player back up to match fitness before risking him in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
