He's (rightly) banished from the first team, new manager comes in, he comes back in, plays as well as he can do to then sod off to another team as fast as he can in January What has Westwood done to (rightly) be “banished”? Seriously some right stuff thrown his way over the last year, would love to be a bit more ITK about what he did? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Willow Owl Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Doesn’t deserve to walk straight back in, Wildsmith has done nothing wrong. We’ve had 5 clean sheets in 11 games, at that rate we will break Westwood’s joint clean sheet record over the season. 10 goals conceded in 11 games while missing majority of our better defenders in 4/5 of those games. To me our problems are further up the pitch and not keeper/ defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not played a match for months, surely its better to play him in the u23s for a couple of games first. Plus, Wildsmith has actually done okay since he was brought back in. If Dawson was still playing, I’d chuck westwood in but I just don’t think its worth risking. There’s also the increased risk of getting an injury given his lack of games, especially at his age. Pulis has already said he is number 1, thank god common sense has prevailed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jack Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 If he performs well, we hopefully can sell and bring a better keeper. It's a win win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, "no disrespect to the young keepers but he is one of the best keepers in this league, can I be any more honest than that". To me that says he is back in the starting 11.

" In my opinion, he's the best keeper in this division and I think he should play, can I be more honest than that?" is my recollection of what he said... Yes he did, looking forward to the team he puts out Saturday but certainly feel Westwood is a definite start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They was 1 or 2 vocal folk on here saying that appears yet again they where wrong. Hope he's like the Westwood we all remember as a lot seem to have either selective memory with the number of goals/mistakes he made before he was dropped and the last time he was dropped or don't actually go to games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevdi9 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 glad he is back . might give the youngsters the impetus to try a bit harder and tighten up , competition is good for the game , therfore if he plays good luck to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 It would be harsh on Wildsmith but Westwood is still the best keeper on our books as Pulis has already alluded to. We need to keep our GA under 50 if we can as we’re not going to score a lot of goals this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
