11 fucking points so far!!!! we could have been sitting pretty by now
11 fucking points so far!!!! we could have been sitting pretty by nowCollins has had some absolute howlers this season and is single handedly responsible for us losing so many points.
That being said I can’t even imagine the meltdown from the fans if he makes a mistake that costs us the playoffs. It’ll incite a fucking riot, the Ricoh will be burning down by the late afternoon.
Very pretty11 fucking points so far!!!! we could have been sitting pretty by now
Don't be so mature.Not necessarily. They see both goalkeepers in training and Wilson may not be performing well on the training pitch.
We don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes, perhaps Wilson is 100% physically ready but mentally not there yet.
There must be a reason he isn’t playing if Collins starts in goal on Saturday.

What's the reason then? Lampard just refusing to drop him because he wants to do opposite of what fans want?It's OK mate, there's a reason for it
People will want to know the reason why but will ignore the obvious. Wilson's kicking can be very poor. He frequently gives the ball away. Look at how many of his kicks go out for a throw in. He will also make mistakes but not as many as Collins. Collins makes more mistakes but his kicking is very good. It was only a few games ago where his long kick helped set up our winning goal late in injury time.What's the reason then?

I was about to nominate Collins as MOTM last game until he fooked up right at the end. He is a capable GK but too capable at mistakes in his decision making.
He's obviously not always been as bad as he is now. In fact even here he was fairly competent for a spell last season, but his head has completely gone. Think he needs a fresh start, thinking a middling league 1 club where there is little pressure to achieve anything and he'll probably be fine.People will want to know the reason why but will ignore the obvious.

I'm with you there. I'd prefer the GK with less mistakes but keeping the ball also keeps pressure away. It's quite simple. Neither are good enough for what Lampard needs.He actually fucked up a couple of long kicks Saturday which with hindsight was all part of his gradual deterioration as the game went on for whatever reason.
His distribution is normally very good but doesn't compensate for his other faults in my opinion.
I'm more worried about him after Saturday thean ever because as you say, he was heading for a confidence building MOTM performance and he just lost it.I'm with you there.

As are we allI'm more worried about him after Saturday thean ever because as you say, he was heading for a confidence building MOTM performance and he just lost it.
Just hoping being at home at recent clean sheets in home games helps him keep it together.
Yeah. There has to be a catch somewhere.Poor decision making, poor with it hands, makes you wonder why he chose to be a goalkeeper.
Hardly going to be confident going into Saturday's game is he. Not after the huge mistake last week.I'm more worried about him after Saturday thean ever because as you say, he was heading for a confidence building MOTM performance and he just lost it.

He wasn't very good last season either11 fucking points so far!!!! we could have been sitting pretty by now
I'd put Collins in for this game for two reasons. We're at home and it's against Middlesbrough. The way they play is good for our high line tactics. It also works well against other sides like Sunderland. But if we get Sheffield United in the playoffs I'd want to put Wilson in and go more defensively.As are we all
There is no ideal solution unfortunately be it Wilson or Collins who gets the nod
See what you did thereYeah. There has to be a catch somewhere.
Or maybe not.
The thing is, he saved all the shots brilliantly, it was rushing out the edge of his area that fucked us up!!! WTF was he thinking of???He didn't make a mistake because he was getting peppered with shots, unless your talking about a session of Jagers the night before
Perhaps it might be for the best Saddle's I dare say Mboro will be looking for the smallest of advantages.Everything being kept fully under wraps this week
Hence no training pics etc yet and they were back in Tuesday
I wouldn't put Collins against anyone.I'd put Collins in for this game for two reasons. We're at home and it's against Middlesbrough. The way they play is good for our high line tactics. It also works well against other sides like Sunderland. But if we get Sheffield United in the playoffs I'd want to put Wilson in and go more defensively.

Predictable?I hope FL is prepared in case Boro DON'T play the way we think they will - I'm getting nervous now it's closer haha
terminated tomorrow please!Collins was worth a punt at £600k when we signed him. Two years on, surely he can go cheap or have his contract terminated
On purpose I betNo sign of Thomas or Milan in the clubs training photos
Would imagine if they are back it’s very light work on the training groundNo sign of Thomas or Milan in the clubs training photos
Harsh !!??? That's the point he may be ok for 80 minutes ,but he's always liable to make a clanger . He's useless non league standard keeper and that's being generous.Think everyones being a bit harsh on Collins, he’s getting better, last game his only mistake wasn’t until the 90th minute, if Your behind either goal Saturday and we’re 1-0 with mins to go, scream at him to stay on his line and keep his legs shut
We should also remember the GK situation in terms of 2 very average at best no.2's is NOT of FL making, thats on Robins and recruitment team.
We can all debate the current situation, clear he will stick with collins now and we should just back him - time for inquests can come later.
Robins was often going ballistic on the sidelines due to Wilson’s distribution. He’s another players who’s improved massively by not playing.People will want to know the reason why but will ignore the obvious. Wilson's kicking can be very poor. He frequently gives the ball away.
