Collins played at Wimbledon and did nothing of note

I'd like to see Collins just because Wilson's poor distribution is exposed even more when a team is trying to play out from the back

Wilson has become one of the best goalkeepers in the championship, and that makes him one of the best ENGLISH keepers in the country.

To be honest McFadzean's distribution has been worse this season.

Binks smashed one so far out of play it reminded me of Jim O’Brien

Given he was raved about for having one of the best clean sheet records despite him doing very little to contribute towards it, can we start slating him as we’re not getting clean sheets but it’s not really his fault?

I agree that he was poor for the 3rd goal, but I would be very surprised if MR dropped him right now.

We've conceded 7 goals in 3 games, so there has to be some scrutiny on the keeper + his distribution is pretty poor.
Wouldn't put it past Robins to make some big decsions now.
Collins for Wilson
Thomas / Kitching for Fadz

He does get pissed off with him during games more than any other player from what I see

Fair enough but I'm not sure what he expected from someone who has spent most of his career as a lower league back up keeper.

Considering the experts were claiming he was responsible for all those clean sheets, surely they think he’s wholly responsible for leaking goals.

I agree with a lot of your posts but that smacks me as an example of confirmation bias! You and others on this thread don't rate Wilson so are looking for anything to hang on him, and have been looking to do so ever since he broke into the team instead of Marosi. I don't believe Collins would have saved the Hull goal either, and I don't think he did enough in the Wimbledon or pre season games to mark him out as a better option than Wilson at this moment.

While I agree that Wilson was poor for the 3rd goal last night, his distribution issues seem to be no different to many keepers we play against in this league for teams who also try to play out from the back (Watford & Swansea for instance), and will still apply to Collins if and when he breaks into the team. Saddlebrains is playing up his ITK credentials on this matter, so will be interesting to see if he is right and Collins will replace Wilson on Monday. MR has made surprise decisions before but I would be surprised if he made this one right now.

The defence has got leaky compared to last year and he doesn’t save much and has a slow brain when it comes to distribution also regularly takes the wrong option.

I didn't see Collins command his area or dominate at Wimbledon, cannot judge off one game but neither are outstanding at this level but not bad for the budget

another very weird signing. Really didn’t see the point bringing him in if he’s not considerably better than what we’ve got, if he’s just going to occupy bench we already had Moore for that.
Collins didn’t seem that good in pre season but hopefully he turns out to be a surprise of the season

Where does the £600k fee I see come from for Collins? Surely we didn’t pay that for a League 1 clubs second choice keeper with a year left on his contract

If he was he'd have dropped him.

Moore was also brought in as first choice and isn't.

Moore wasn't exactly pushing Wilson based on his last performances, was he.

He's picked Wilson on merit and if he's dropped he'll be dropped on merit, much as the keepers always have been here tbh.

Thats literally what im saying. He will be dropped for Collins after his shit showing Tuesday. Soon as Wilson put in a shit performance he was going to be dropped. We all know that, why are you kicking off about it ?
