If we don’t bring a decent keeper in it could cost us points early season and we know how bad starts have cost us in recent times.
If we don’t bring a decent keeper in it could cost us points early season and we know how bad starts have cost us in recent times.I don't think it would be a disaster but I'd rather we bought someone in to cover for Dovin.
However if we have limited funds Lampard will have to decide if that is a priority.
Worried that if we don't bring someone in there will be a temptation to rush Dovin back.
The problem is they were saying Dovin could be out till after Xmas, and relying on Wilson and Collins could cost us big time as there’s a lot of points to play for before the new year .He will have had a summer to reset. Less pressure at start of seaosn than inns playoff run
Same goes for Wilson
Is it ideal? Of course not. But can they possibly put it together for 2 months between then to help us avoid spending money on another keeper? I think so and maybe it's worth the risk
Internet point scoring is very tiresome isnt it ?I see we're at the 'starting threads that let me tell people how thick they are' stage of pre-season.
"most of us" aren't too disappointed to see Wilson start
I dont think there is a fan that disagrees but the likelihood of that happening seems slim at besttbf I'd want him and Collins gone and a stopgap brought in with Bell or the new GK as emergency backup
It’s not like there’s nobody decent on a free…tbf I'd want him and Collins gone and a stopgap brought in with Bell or the new GK as emergency backup
And not forgetting her brother Chaka Hislop who played in goal for Newcastle.Great granddaughter Chaka was ok too.
Had to wait a couple of minutes until I could stop laughing before replying to this.I'm yet to be convinced that Dovin is better than Wilson and Collins if I'm honest.
I agree, I think we need to prepare as if he's going to be out for the season. Anything could happen with that kind of injury. We can't just 'make do' and end up writing off the season.We need a new number one. Neither Wilson nor Collins are capable of holding down a place in a team that’s serious about promotion, and there is no guarantee that Dovin will come back either on time or in good form.
Wilson starting means Collins is still no. 2 - you're running the risk of relying on him again
Yeah it sucks for Dovin, but if the season’s going to be a success you absolutely do not want to be in a position where you’re switching out your keeper six months in for a 23 year old coming off an ACL tear.I agree, I think we need to prepare as if he's going to be out for the season.

I don’t see how Collins comes back from being dropped for the last game of the season and the playoffs. I say that as someone who’s consistently preferred him to Wilson.Lots of assumptions that Wilson is second choice when it’s not necessarily the case.
The point is more that the coaching clearly preferred Collins over Wilson and don’t agree with the claims that he’s an average or even adequate Championship keeper.I don’t see how Collins comes back from being dropped for the last game of the season and the playoffs.

The thing is, Collins was so wank it's glazed over Wilson. Poor stats last season, poor stats the season before that too and a career mainly as a lower league backup. I don't see him as an acceptable option for a team looking to challenge at the top of the Championship.If they go in to the season with that opinion and start Collins then he'll cost us a lot of points unless they've managed to sort him out during the close season.

But will you be not too disappointed when you remember how much the mistakes cost us again?Internet point scoring is very tiresome isnt it ?
Somehow "most of us" aren't too disappointed to see Wilson start
He's a few steps up from Jigsaw Collins, but that's still a few steps below what we need every week.I didn't actually realise how strong the Wilson fan club still was. The fanbase sure does love a 'character' that's not very good.
Utter nonsense.
Glad you thought it was funny.Had to wait a couple of minutes until I could stop laughing before replying to this.
The reason we have 3 senior GK's is Wilson and Collins are just not good enough for a side to be challenging at the top of the table so we brought Dovin in. He is a class above the other 2.
Just like before every season lots of people seem to have short memories. How did our results go once Dovin got injured? If we have Wilson or Collins in goal for nearly half a season we would be lucky to get 6th place. Our defence don't trust them so don't play their usual game.
Glad you thought it was funny.
Like I say I'll leave off my opinions in the future and leave it to much better informed people than a IKFA person such as me.
Let's leave it at that.
