Guest Willow Owl Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 5 games 3 clean sheets. Growing in confidence and stature every game. New defensive line up in front today and never once looked in trouble. Well done Cam, keep the doubters quiet for at least another week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee A Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Always been a good keeper. More than good enough for this level. Kicking is a bit poo sometimes but he's getting better all the time. Good to see him going well after some harsh criticism last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 He's the least of our problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggoisgod Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I really want him to be brilliant but I'm never totally confident that he will dominate his 6 yard box 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philb125 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I’ve been pressed that recently he’s started looking to full backs for a short pass or throw out to them rather than his aimless long balls to no one earlier in season. His distribution isn’t the strongest, nor is our aerial threat up top, so great to see us retain possession when the simple short ball is on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I think his commanding of the box is much better than it was under Jos. He catches it now rather than flapping at it. I think it’s all chicken and egg really as things like that and the errors are only eradicated through experience and we didn’t give him much time out on loan. So he’s at the point where he needs to play if he’s going to stay here and we will persevere. If there wasn’t a wider issue it would still make sense to have one of Dawson or Wildsmith out on loan playing each week whilst the other was no1 working with an older keeper like Westwood or similar. Sunderland were desperate for a keeper and as a big club chasing promotion I thought that would’ve been ideal for one of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea Baggins Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I think we need to look towards Darrell Flavahan. Since he has taken over the senior GKs they look better at the simple things. This isn't a dig at Weaver, but maybe he is better suited to the youth set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Still don't think he's good enough! Seems to pull of good saves but let's some easier ones in! Problem is we've been spoiled by really good goalkeepers down the years. Carson Grant Kirkland Westwood Even Weaver and Bywater were pretty good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Were it not for terrible finishing and some great defending by Joost, he was rooted to his line more than once. I'm not at all confident with him personally, but clean sheets means no shag as they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hougoumont Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 His clean sheet yesterday was more down to his defense, some poor finishing and Van Aken's block. He still looks indecisive and his positioning is suspect. However, his distribution although still waywards with his kicking is much improved with his early release awareness. Give him some time but continue the search for a top class bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Seems to have worked on his quick distribution too I used to age 10 years between him receiving the ball for a goal kick, and him actually starting the game again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are keeping clean sheets it’s all because of the defence. Give the guy some credit FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if this has been coached into him as he used to do the Westwood thing off hang onto the ball for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
