Looks decent!

We might conced as many chances, but we wouldn't concede as many goals.

Maybe, just thing they've become an entitled fan base with absolutely no justification.

Like they appreciated the first manager in decades to win them a trophy?!

Samoan Joe's gift vouchers

If you've watched Collins recently and not been concerned then I dont know what to say. He's been dreadful. As for individual errors, it is possible to be concerned about them and the string of howlers Collins has been responsible for.

Owe money all over the shop if rumours,are to be believed

I think the consensus is that we won't invest heavily in a keeper, but if we don't get it right, or dont get one of our current keepers back on track, then we'll struggle to sustain a play off push.

That's true, but those of us banging on about the keeper aren't saying get a replacement in at the cost of strengthening elsewhere, we're just saying it's a priority. But some are saying forget the keeper, spend the money elsewhere! It's short sighted. We can't bolster one area at the expense...

Not sure when he said it but it's a well known quote and it's quoted in this article. https://www.planetfootball.com/quizzes/can-name-every-goalkeeper-play-man-utd-premier-league John Terry said Chech was worth 12 - 15 points a season to their Chelsea side and Clough said a good keeper was...

Weren't there rumours on here we had an option on him? Also rumours Bidwells off so I think it's fair to say a new LB will be coming in. Whether it's Burrows or not I've no Idea. And that's of course if you discount the JDS to Germany rumours!

I agree, when we're playing well we can really dominate games, how would he perform when he has long periods doing nothing? Though I'd bet his hands and feet wouldn't stop working!

A Teutonic bidding war for Jay Dasilva wasn't on my close season bingo card

I'm not sure you've understood Fergusons quote. And Collins has done more than most to derail our play off chances I the last month or so, but again, there are other factors, I'm not saying if we sign a topclass keeper all is rosy but we definitely need a big upgrade.

Read post 430. And it's a ridiculous argument anyway, you could just as easily say if attackers are so important why did the team with leagues top scorer only stay up on the last day? It's over simplified nonsense.

Recruitment never is, regardless of the fees involved but it needs sorting.

Agree, a decent keeper isn't a magic bullet, there are other areas need attention. But the idea we can sort them out and then we'll be ok persevering with jazz hands is crazy.

As Alex Ferguson said, a good keeper is worth 15 points a season, you're massively underpaying the importance of the role. The outfield players are going to have to do something incredible if a keeper is gifting the opposition a goal every game.

I think it's also hard to accurately judge defenders when they've got a keeper they don't trust behind them

There's a strong argument that the keeper is the most impactful position. It certainly isn't one that can be taken that lightly you can afford to have someone in there who drops a clanger every game.
