I haven't seen many keepers that don't have an extensive catalogue of super saves that they have kept in their lockers over the years. So too the clean sheets but these are just as much a product of the defence that offers protection to the keepers. So what do we look for in a Keeper ? Sound subjective positional sense. An increasing degree of footwork given the back passes and playing out philosophy. A big shout out capable of organi sing his back line in conjunction with the defensive organiser. Finally, a keeper strong enough to physically cope with all the buffeting and roughing that we see from in coming set pieces. These attributes, rather than super saves, are what will reduce our goals conceded column. Super saves look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does he deserve better? He's played for a fantastic club with brilliant fans who've forgiven him for some shocking errors and allowed him to continue his development. He's played in front of big crowds in a successful side with a supportive manager. It's been a great move for him, he's right to be grateful. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's what is offered to him, I suspect he'll be asking for a transfer and we could get some cash in to help us buy/loan 2 new keepers. Personally I'd give him another opportunity to prove himself now he's gained some confidence and more experience. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveClark Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Dawson and Wildsmith may be both off. Neither are happy with the ball at their feet, and presumably Moore has seen this. I personally don't agree with that assessment of a keeper but I'm not the gaffer. Wednesday have had good, nay GREAT keepers since forever - this season for me has probably seen the worst keeper in the net since the about 1988, maybe a little earlier to be honest. I'm not so bothered if Peacock Farrell doesn't come back next season. Edited May 15, 2022 by DaveClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's under contract If he's not happy he can ask for a transfer He wasn't player of the season at Exeter, he won the junior supporters award Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

oneeyedmilkman Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 He was paid a Premier league wage (couldn't guess how much we paid) and was unequivocally first choice for a team in a league good enough for him to be number 1 for his country again. We owe him nothing and nor does he us, thats what a loan is. If Burnley go down, he probably plays for Burnley. If they don't, someone in the champ will pay the loan fee and wages we did this season. We all move on.....(not to that banzunu though. Anyone thinking we're getting him is crackers. He's going to the prem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Wildsmith is definitely leaving, he’s not gonna stay here been No2 again It wouldn’t shock me if Dawson leaves either, I think DM does rate him but I feel his confidence is shot in terms of playing here, given the choice I’m certain he’d rather stay at Exeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningaround Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 the lad at bolton on loan worth a shout also city youth? James Trafford if available worth a loan? Bazunu wont play this level again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the problem with that is that by the time you know he’s not up to it (League 1 or playing in front of critical Wednesday fans) it’s too late to get a decent replacement. So I think he will start as no2 to another prem loanee or an older keeper with top level experience on a year long deal. Or else he’ll leave.
