mcmigo Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Another mistake today. We can chop, change and mix and match the 10 outfielders all we want but we are yet again in a season where we don’t have a good goalkeeping answer. More than anything that will really haunt us. The number of important goals we are conceding from poor goalkeeping is a joke. I would be trying to get a goalie in for January. It’s only a matter of time before the call for ‘westy’ to return is coming. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Can’t disagree. BPF started well, but makes so many mistakes. Decent shot stopper but just doesn’t fill me with confidence. Need a solid experienced goalkeeper. Surely can’t be that hard to find one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might stop the free headers from corners and free kicks then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, it was a near post cross, like Cambridge, Morecambe, Shrewsbury... It would be more of a surprise if he had done better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 He's crap. How many errors has he made this season? Must be 6 or 7 now. There was some sketchy moments on Tuesday night too which nearly cost us. We all know Wildsmith's not up to it and Dawson's future likely lies elsewhere. Another huge problem on top of many we have right now. You can't be successful with a poor number 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LondonOwl313 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I never thought I’d say this as he’s crap too but might be worth recalling Dawson from Exeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Should also be said that having Darren Guardiola constantly changing the backline is compounding the issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't need to be, the corner at Morecambe, flapped at it, OG. Shrewsbury, dropped it. Cambridge, almost the same as today. Let a simple near post shot in v Oxford too. I actually called it before in the prediction thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LondonOwl313 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Maybe it’s just normal at this level for players to constantly be shanking the ball and making basic errors. We’ve conceded 13 in 14 games even though half of them were GK errors.. it’s comparable with other sides near the top. Our biggest problem is at the other end where we’ve scored 15 and the top 7 all have 22-26 goals. Its a kick and rush league.. get the ball forward quick and the other teams will make mistakes and we’ll score more goals. The slow build up is killing us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A47Owl Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 BPF was always an accident waiting to happen at Leeds. Had numerous similar errors while playing for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do people try and over complicate football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Nick Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Good GK's are like good Strikers, they cost a lot of money. It's not a "glamour" position...but can make or break a team. With a good GK, Wednesday would be in a much better place in the standings than currently, even considering the poor form of the team to date. I was hoping BPF was the answer, at least until the end of his loan spell, but... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
