Imagine if Dovin was in goal today!

Even with the penalty giveaway, it was as good a GK performance as I’ve seen us have in years.

What can he do that Wilson can't?

He played well but at fault for the pen ,no need for him to be caught out like that and he got away earlier on when he came rushing out of his goal and Kitching cleared.

Best goalkeeping performance I've seen at the CBS since "that" performance by Steve Phillips for Crewe when they beat us 3-0.

With one year left on his contract player power will play a part.

if we get promoted he will obviously want to stay and play next season. Unless they’re going to guarantee first team football, and Verbruggen is contracted to 2028(?), is it worth making him stay? Not much chance of his value increasing and a danger of him walking for nothing.

But that’s all a long way off.

He has a years option in Brighton's favour. No chance they don't extend that

Depends on where they are with him. He's not starting ahead of Verbruggen so at best he's fighting it out to be second or third choice. He will be 25 at the start of next season so not a prospect. The highest level he's played at is Championship level.

Can see him asking for a move to try and establish himself as a permanent No 1 rather than being loaned out every year. I think it will be a case of us meeting Brighton's asking fee for a player who doesn't want too be there and may well have put in a transfer request.

The giving away of the penalty was a result of inexperience and over exuberance something that will be duly noted, pointed out and rectified in the coming weeks.

He’s the difference with us winning games this season. Wilson or Collins would have conceded 5 yesterday.
We were lucky to come away with a 3-1 win which on paper looks like we dominated but it wasn’t always the case.
Quite an end to end match that Rushworth did exceptionally well to keep it in our favour

If we get promoted then we’ll surely be signing him for a chunky fee. He has a few things to improve on for sure, but has the skill set we need from a keeper and will only improve over time. I would not be surprised to see Dovin go out on loan next season.

Think Dovin stays as a number 2 if we're a Prem team. It is a tricky one though tbf, I also see the benefit of getting him a good loan move.

I think Dovin needs both patience and game time to properly recover and I don’t think that being a backup keeper in the PL is going to give him either. I would send him to a Championship team for the year next season and see where he’s at, he’s played fewer than 30 games in this country.

I assume you'd want another keeper in too though? No way is Wilson a Prem second choice.

Yeah definitely. Another loan or a short-term freebie I imagine.

You dont care because we scored 3 and against 10 men the game was over.
If he had given that pen away in a 0-0 game, we'd all be having a very different conversation.

Brighton have sent him here on loan because he is still learning his trade, and dispite pulling off some outstanding saves, he is still prone to that kind of error.

Go and look at the goal QPR scored at the CBS a few weeks ago, it was a very poor goal from a keepers point of view, but again because we had already scored 7, he got away with it.

Hes a very good keeper, far better than Wilson, but not the finished article yet.
Hopefully by next season he will be ready for the Premier league, and hopefully with us.

Rushworth had an excellent game overall. His save from Louza was absolutely top drawer as it would have beaten most keepers in the Championship, and his reading of one on one situations was particularly impressive. The penalty was poor on his part however, as there was no need for him to leave his goal to make the challenge, and was the type of error Wilson might make.

Luckily the errors he has made leading to goals have come in games we've won comfortably, and the more he has played the less likely he has looked to concede a soft goal. His presence also clearly gives the defenders in front of him far more confidence than having Wilson or Collins behind them, so has also been an important part in their improved performances too.

There’s game state. Watford ‘dominated’ the 2nd half but from our POV, the game was all but over and you rightly point that out. Had the game been 2-0, you’d expect us to attack the second half more aggressively to kill it off. As it happened, we did the hard work in the 1st half.

Looking at the incident back, clear penalty and one the coaching staff will raise with him and work on it.

I’m sure there will be more than a couple advocating it.

Rushworth is doing great. It's so nice to not have to worrya bout crosses into box etc

That said I'm really looking forward to seeing dovin okay again too and I hope he can play in our fa cup games. He was very good last season

He's hardly inexperienced. He's played over 170 games in his career.

The save down to his left from Louza was fantastic that beats 99% of keepers.
