Never played professionally, has he?Yeah… Aled Williams
From what I gather, it's...If someone can tell me specifically what aspects of defensive or goalkeeping coaching we aren’t doing well during the week then I’d love to hear it.
I haven’t seen anything official that suggests thatIs he actually our defensive coach, officially?
Just be honest and say you don’t know what they do in training.From what I gather, it's...
Kicking and distribution
Strength and stamina
Positioning
I believe the one they keep missing and run out of time to do, is....
Saving
Just be honest and say you don’t know what they do in training.
Having a go at the coaches instead of the players is the last refuge of fans who have run out of ideas or places to direct their anger.
Or maybe your car just wasn’t very good?Coaches are there to improve players.
We've had a succession of goalkeepers who are abject failures who have declined rather than improved.
I know absolutely nothing about cars but if I drive my car in to a garage for an MOT and it breaks down as I'm driving it off the forecourt I know the mechanic has fucked up.
Or maybe your car just wasn’t very good?
Williams was the GK coach when we made the playoffs on the back of a solid defensive setup and our keeper (up to that point in his career a nobody) won the Golden Glove. Didn’t hear many complaints about his coaching abilities back then.
Coaches are responsible for lots of aspects that we are doing consistently poorly. To absolve them of blame is weirdJust be honest and say you don’t know what they do in training.

The answer you’re looking for is Ben Wilson.Our keepers have been awful for years, and people were moaning about Wilson in the play off season, (I wasn't one of them).
For a long time now it's been a massively problematic position and I cant remember the last keeper who came here and improved for any sustained length of time.
Given that, I find it amazing that anyone can try and exonerate the goal keeping coach of any responsibility
Like what? I assume you know what Williams does with them all week.Coaches are responsible for lots of aspects that we are doing consistently poorly.
No need to be so prickly !Like what? I assume you know what Williams does with them all week.
The best answer I’ve had so far is that they should spend more time on coaching “saving”…..genius.
Yes - the players.No need to be so prickly !
Just as an Idea aside from saving , what about positioning from set pieces , defenders allocated opposition players or areas from set pieces .
We are struggling fundamentally to do the basics well . Someone is responsible for that
So let's sack all the coaches as there's obviously no needYes - the players.
A new coach is not going to turn any of our keepers into Lev Yashin, I’m sorry to say.
The answer you’re looking for is Ben Wilson.
I wouldn’t exonerate anyone from blame but there are far more important figures in determining how well our keepers play - let’s start with the keepers themselves, the defenders in front of them, and the manager who tells them all how they should play.
If someone can tell me specifically what aspects of defensive or goalkeeping coaching we aren’t doing well during the week then I’d love to hear it.
Marosi and Moore went to crap? By what metric?Ben Wilson had a 1 great season
Burge crap.
Marosi 1 good season, went to crap (injury related)
Moore 1 good season, went to crap
Collins suspect to start with, got worse
Dovin fuck knows what's going on.
If that's nothing to do with the goalkeeping coach then let's get rid and spend the money elsewhere
Marosi and Moore went to crap? By what metric?
No but he knows his way around an I PadNever played professionally, has he?
Marosi and Moore are both playing for teams higher up the pyramid/table than they were when they joined us. They both did fine for us and ended up playing at a similar level or higher. The idea that Aled Williams “ruined” them simply doesn’t hold water.What metric?!
Christ almighty, Moore was responsible for dropping a clanger about 6 games on the trot before he got dropped.
I'm not sure why you've decided to take up the mantle of forum contrarian but you really are trying to argue black is white

Yep but we had a decent defensive coach in Dennis Lawrence. Williams was only the goalkeeper coach during which time we saw Moore, Collins and Wilson declineOr maybe your car just wasn’t very good?

Marosi was ruined by Sean Morrison.
It was a joke.Just be honest and say you don’t know what they do in training.

If I’m honest, I do think we need more coaches like Lawrence who do everything right behind the scenes, and less coaches like Williams who do everything wrong. Instant success.Yep but we had a decent defensive coach in Dennis Lawrence. Williams was only the goalkeeper coach during which time we saw Moore, Collins and Wilson decline
