SallyCinnamon Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Overall think he did well for us this season. Had to adapt to playing it out from the back. Young keeper, going to make the odd mistake. Good luck to him in his next move. Probably ready for a Championship club. I think Dawson will be back as No.1 next season. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 A bit like the team itself, his form picked up the more the season progressed. Some horrible mistakes in his first few months, but he deserves credit for not letting it ruin his season. Still has an occasional wobble but the kid will go onto have a good career. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sambo89 Posted May 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 11, 2022 Would love to have him back next season. Grew in confidence as the season progressed. Having said that though, I'd love Dawson to come back and claim the number 1 shirt and get the same reviews he's had from Exeter. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dylan93 Posted May 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 11, 2022 Young keeper? He’s 26 this year! He’s not good enough. Not vocal enough, doesn’t command his area, kicking isn’t great, slow distrubution and drops a clanger. Decent on pens and that’s it. No go for me 8 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpowl Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 He’s a young keeper, and has some good traits about him but I honestly think we can do better there was far too many mistakes in his game it made me nervous as hell i don’t think he was terrible not saying that at all but I’d like to think we have somebody we can be more confident in next year Maybe he will shine in a lower end champ where he’s going to be busier shot stopping and doesn’t have to play as much good luck to the lad though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Good luck to the lad, hope he finds a berth away from here, had his stand out moments and just as many moments to forget, he needs to grow a much bigger pair and cut out the errors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etchesketch Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I don't get this 'Young Keeper' thing. All the top keepers have made massive strides by 25/26. Pickford just turned 28 and he has 50 England caps. People will still call Dawson and Wildsmith young at 26/27 no doubt when their names crop up this summer on these threads. Can someone tell me when a keeper is not 'young' anymore? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 So the target was promotion then not just stability as some posters would have you believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Amazing technical and physical ability in flashes as a keeper, but the lad needs games to get the basics right I don’t want us to be the club where he makes his mistakes There’s a big pool of keepers that will get 8 out of 10 every week in L1 All the best BPF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keepers tend to develop at different times. They often go on past 36/37 years old. So at 25 with relatively little first team experience (1 and a bit full seasons at Leeds) he’s still a young keeper who is gaining experience.

torryowl Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 burnley sent him to us to get some game time just as we sent dawson to exeter which with hindsight (wonderful thing hindsight ) as things have turned out seems a bit of a pointless exercise as far as we are concerned .......burnley win coz they get 3rd /4th choice keeper a full season playing and no doubt get a % of his wages covered ,exeter win coz dawson plays a huge part in there promotion and we are still in the 3rd tier which no doubt we would be if we had just kept dawson as 1st choice .

Guest Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I don’t think Dawson is a bad keeper, I think he’s more than capable of been out number 1 He’s hot target though unfortunately for the hate mob, one bad game and it’ll be the end of the world , and I think CD knows it all too well so doubt he’ll come back and play here with the confidence he’s had at Exeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodwickOwl Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I’ll be very shocked if Dawson is number one Peacock Farrell was unbelievably comfortable with the ball at his feet - Dawson on the other hand is very ropey We need someone like BPF again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlinOldham Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 He did okay. Has some biggish holes in his game though. Cant kick/pass long, suss handling at times, positioning is also often questionable from crosses, free kicks and corners. to be fair though, hes pretty good in one vs one situations, hes confident in himself and hes also pulled off some very good unexpected saves. I would however argue theres better to be had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robowl4life Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Can’t say I was ever that convinced by him. Never really filled me with confidence, always had a mistake in him. Yet on the other hand at times pulled off some good saves. I’d give Dawson the no1 it’s his to lose now in theory. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 A great shot stopper but he didn’t half make me nervous at times. I wouldn’t mind us looking at bringing in a more experienced keeper next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No go for me He is very vocal in the changing room and says what is needed on the pitch. His kicking is pinpoint left side. Not great on his right. But he works at it. I don't think he will be here next year as Burnley have already discussed a contract with him. Dawson will be back. 100% 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
