The Treasurer Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Everyone, including our new manager (I hope) knows that we need a new goalkeeper. I don't think we need a new thread after each game telling us how pish they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilmuir Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 My issue with Zlamal last night was his relentless humping the ball up the park to nobody in particular. It was so easy for Livi to defend. I'm not a fan of the other keepers but at least it looks like they think about where they are kicking the ball.

Ricardo Shillyshally Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Every time Livi had a throw in to the box he was out of position and it cost us the goal. He was marking the front post when Bartley scored. That said someone with half a football brain should have had us defending it like a corner and not allowing Bobby to go wandering about his box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut The Crap Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 There's a rashness about him that causes the heart rate to quicken, but he generally gets away with it. Not great at the goal (I suspect he was thinking of coming to claim it again) but the ricochet off the guy's head was more unfortunate than incompetent.

His urge to come out meant he was miles out of position or being in any shape to save the volley, that’s incompetent. He was so lost as to where he was he dives from the post. He lacks the basic understanding of goal keeping and it has cost us big time and in big games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue with Bobby is in that situation and others is that he doesn’t appear to shout and make players aware he going for the ball. I also thought that he could have taken the ball cleanly a few times instead of punching the ball out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was always coached that good goalies have the last say on balls going towards him and his goal as he sees everything that is coming towards him. Were a defender running towards his goal doesnt always know whats happening behind him. Didnt look like Berra knew he was going to be run over. We definitely need a real goalie sooner than later.

Posted the question on the match thread at half-time last night but someone told me MacLean had played him onside, which I had to accept. Having seen footage, he still looks offside but unfortunately our officials failed to register what had happened in front of their eyes ie that Berra has headed the ball off a Livi player and the ball has rebounded to a Livi player in an offside position. They’re useless and not one pundit asked the question either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudiHMFC Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The Zlamal-Berra combo is actually frightening.
