Victorian Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 12 minutes ago, OTT said: I'm not a fan of blaming luck, its lazy. Sometimes yes, you're quite right but something about the volume of injuries isn't sitting well with me. Craig Beattie was on Si Ferrys interview show, and basically said he didn't warm up right under strachan and ended up tearing his hamstring. Point being, that with the volume of muscle injuries we're getting we can't simplify it down to bad luck. I think its worth the coaching staff reviewing what they're doing, how the players are warming up/down before and after games & training. If everythings fine, then great. But at least then we could say definitively that its not down to training. Luck is just a word. It is perhaps better described as a statistical cluster. Injuries happen and they are unlikely to happen in an evenly spaced out pattern at all times. What is much more likely is that a team will have very few injuries for periods of time and more frequent injuries at other times. If you toss a coin for long enough, at some point you'll get the same result for a very lengthy number of times. 10, 15, 20. There's no evidence to support a theory of negligence. There is a perfectly logical case for saying we are somewhere within a period of highest frequency injury events. Hopefully at the end of it.

OTT Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I think Joel Pereira might actually be the single worst transfer in our clubs 147 year history.

AlimOzturk Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Remember a lot of fans saying he should play because he was good with the ball at his feet. The problem with that was anytime a shot was fired his way it went through him like his hands were made of butter. He didn’t make one single save of note that I can remember. The worst keeper I have seen and we have a few utter bomb scares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did further damage having all his team mates more worried about him than what they were meant to be doing on the pitch. Left you watching in utter disbelief. If he stood still with his eyes closed at every shot, he would have saved more than he did. find me another goalie in history at professional level who has been known to dive out the way of a shot !!!!

been here before Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) Made Craig Nelson look like Zibi and Zibi look like Buffon. Ultimately though if he wasnt getting picked every game when the whole support (and team: Killie at home in particular) could see how pish he was, then less damage may well have been done.

I think it's useful for a club like United to have him as a training goalie - he can pass the ball out like a far more expensive goalie would and allows defenders to play the same way as a the first team from a restart. In terms of goalkeeping ability he wouldn't get a game for Bonnyrigg Rose , who's keeper Mark Weir played an absolute blinder against Dundee.

alwaysthereinspirit Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Good move by Huddersfield in signing him. Most likely brings the balls and cones to practice.
