Guest Mcguigan Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Think international level keepers need more about their game now than they did 10-15 years ago which will go against KW. Whilst he's still an excellent shot stopper, his distribution is limited to just belting it down the pitch with very little direction or accuracy. Fine for the football we are currently playing but any coach looking at playing a more possession based game and playing out from back, will look past KW. Even for us, I find myself getting frustrated at the constant punts down the pitch when, on the rare occasion we have better options available, he waves them away and just belts it.

A few years back we were trying to play it from the back and there was a meltdown!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does right. What use is the ball in our own half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early in the second half against Millwall, I think it was Hutch who asked for it at his feet as he had options to both sides of him and then we could have played down the wings. KW completely ignored him and kicked ball out of hand straight out of play. It didn't show Hutch's reaction but I'm guessing he wouldn't have been best pleased. Still a good keeper but not international level for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Unless he's selected on the bench, and then he'll pick up a niggle and will be unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharrowowl Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Chances pretty slim according to Raven Jet Byrne. He's usually on the pulse of this sort of stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Randolph is miles better than Westwood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpowl Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Westwood is no doubt under instructions to go long don’t know why some are questioning this as it’s Westwood’s only way of playing he’s also pretty decent at going long do again the remarks by some are baffling much rather have a keeper that can go long like Westwood than one who just consistently puts it out for a throw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
