Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth (7 Viewers)

[Hobo]

Early days, can’t we just give players time to settle in? Players make mistakes, even the best players, that isn’t the problem. The important bit his how they react after they have made a mistake in that game.

A decent GK should never be conceding that first at Derby. That was schoolboy stuff.

true but nowhere near the goals Wilson and Collins were throwing in, said Saturday I’m still not sure about him, maybe expectation was high for him, but if it’s only until dovins back then he’ll do

Keep a clean sheet on Saturday & he will be loved in my house....loved

Dovin was pants at first. New club, new defence and in his case new country. All players take time to settle.
Rushworth has not played first team football for a while. Was player of the season for Swansea in the Championship.
We are not like Norwich who blocked a record 15 shots. Our defenders are exposed by the way we play including the goalies.
He has not been great on shots. However, if you look at the Norwich goal that their fan put up on another thread, Rushworth had no chance. A few people on here blame him.
His distribution is really good. It was obviously a tactic for him to kick to our right wing which was presumably an area our coaches thought Norwich had a weakness.
Posters on her have complained he should have saved the Norwich goal and he kept kicking to the right.
After ten games, he should have improved or his confidence may have been knocked by his long-term injury. Dovin is currently in exactly the same position.

expectaction was high?

We're expecting him to be better than Wilson not Donnarumma. St Pauli - Was a friendly... but horrendous, Derby - let it go over his head from a freekick on the line, Can't arrange a basic wall against Oxford, This isn't too high expectation -this is a basic expectation for a goalkeeper we were willing to pay 5.5m for.

Ironically i've defended him against someone saying he should have saved norwich's goal - but hes been questionable in every game in all but 2 - where the opposition had about 2 shots combined against him

That’s why I said “ expectation was high, he’s a back up keeper and nowhere near as bad as Wilson ?

On what basis? I think he seems to have a bit better ball control than Wilson but than that I fail to see what he’s better at in goalkeeping?

he can’t set a wall, appears to lose concentration and has pretty much conceded most shots on target - all but 1 game against teams that are woefully bad and 1 which on paper are decent but mustered 1 shot on target.

I’m not saying Wilson is the answer but there had to have been plenty of goalkeepers available that are far better than this clown

if anything - expectation appears to be low if he’s the generally accepted standard

Yes clearly lampard is clueless and should have asked for your expert opinion first

He’s played 5 games,give him a chance he’s back up until dovins back, who would you have got in On loan

 

[Hincha]

Think he’ll come good like Dovin did last season but will take 10-20 games

A few frustrating mistakes so far but there is no way I’d bring Wilson back in like some have suggested

Never said Lampard was clueless - he’s clearly been dealt a shit hand in the goalkeeping department, I’d probably level the comment at the recruitment team - Who has deemed by most on here as

5 games and 4 mistakes leading to goals against the arse end of the league is extremely poor for a goalkeeper - we used a loan and finances that possibly could have been used elsewhere to bring in someone that doesn’t look any better than what we had. May aswell have stuck with Wilson - the result would have been the same. May have beat Oxford as he probably knows how to set a wall.

thank fuck we didn’t spend 5.5m on him. Interestingly - Bristol City’s goalkeeper is on loan from United. He’s started alright

The setting of the wall was poor though Thomas turning his back didn't help. Hopefully he will learn from that mistake.

writing A player off after 5 games,some Of our fans are brilliant,you know they just didn’t pick his name out of a hat, and he isn’t at Brighton because he’s shit, just get behind him,
