I’m sorry but there is no way Collins can play another game for us, absolutely shocking and cost us again. If Wilson ain’t fit then do we try bell out?? I’m sorry after today Collins can’t play again. Bell or Wilson for me

Wilson is quite disliked by a corner of the fan base for whatever reason, but I would choose him over Collins any day of the week. He actually has some credit from the golden glove season at least. Collins looks like he is going through a crisis and needs taking straight back out of the team. What happened today is also partly on Kitching, but as a goalkeeper you just cannot be that fragile with six games to go when so much is at stake.

Collins has been poor since he joined. Some liked him early on, but he's always had teflon hands and either makes ludicrous mistakes (reminiscent of Moore when he went to pot) or pushes the ball back into dangerous areas. Wilson makes mistakes too but at least he - and the defenders - know his limitations. No way he wouldn't have thundertwatted that ball today.

Bell or him have to play next game, if bell is good enough then he can, give him a chance if Wilson ain’t fit. Collins can not play for us again, he will cost us every game

The amount of clowns on here that refuse to admit Wilson is better. Couldn’t believe what I was reading on here this week.

Wilson has his moments but he’s never let us down as many times as Collins has. Beyond a fucking joke. Nervous wreck.

tbh I feel sorry for him at this point. fuck knows what happened to him but something clearly has.

He has been so bad this season to the point he's a literal meme and the only person who seems unable to see it is Lampard.

I didn't agree with it but at least when he was sat on the bench over Wilson and people were saying Wilson is out of contract at the end of the year so why would they play him there was a reason. Now Wilson has renewed there's zero reason for him not to be playing.

He fucked up the first goal and then it was a horrendous mix-up with Kitching for the second. Maybe I’m just too forgiving, but I think you have to see if he can get a grip in the next game and see if he can be the keeper we need him to be with this system. The alternative is punting him off forever and going with your third choice.

Said in the match day but has to be Wilson next. Just wouldn’t make the two mistakes. If that means we have to drop the high line so be it
So you're suggesting to make up for the replacements shortcomings we change our tactics? Both keepers have major issues but surely its too late now to try and change the system.

I would give Bell a go as he couldn’t be worse

Teaching Collins how to avoid howlers every week is a lost cause. Give it Wilson and hope for the best

I mean the system should suit the players first and foremost. We have played with a lower line of engagement and press.

Did it a lot in the 5-3-2 and Robins had his line lower. Just asking us to adapt to what’s happened instead of putting circles into round holes

If you don't pick Wilson over a broken Collins, why extend his contract?

It's so weird.

The goalie and whole of the back line looked nervous from the start.

If Collins plays on Wednesday, and makes another mistake, the crowd will turn. People were reasonably forgiving today, but there is a limit.

For his own benefit, he should never play for us again

Worryingly Joe Edwards seemed to brush off the error as not a big issue. Get backing your players publicly but I really hope this isn't a sign that he will be playing wed.

I honestly don’t see how he can play on Wednesday
