Chillidigits Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Good luck for the future Craig and for what it's worth even now, I'd still have you between the sticks before that hologram guy whose name intentionally escapes me.

BigAlim Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Feel a bit for Zander as he’s obviously not going to be Craig Gordon. As long as he’s solid and dependable then he’ll be a good keeper for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briever Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Zander is going to be great - he's an excellent goalie and will be a success for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fila Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 He is a good keeper and will be secure between the posts for us. This was a great bit of business. Just need to go and sign a decent centre half now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Rob Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Can Zander come for crosses? This was always CG’s main weakness. We’ve been so fortunate though. Anyone who follows him will feel like a downgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escobri Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Hope Zander does great, definitely more confident with him coming in than Stewart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 A good keeper to call upon. I'm sure he'll do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naisys Tackle Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 "The reason we brought Zander in was because with Craig we hoped to be resting him, but he will be out for a longer period," Neilson said. "It gives Zander the chance to come in. He is an international goalkeeper and I’m sure he will look forward to it.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAndy Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 The way I see it if Zander had still been playing for St J he would have been top of a lot of people's lists to replace Craig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deevers Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Zander will be more than decent for us. I know that St Johnstone fans were gutted to lose him. I’ve every confidence that he’ll be excellent between the sticks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who follows him will feel like a downgrade. My mate that's a St Johnstone fan reckons crosses and distribution are his biggest weaknesses. Often stays rooted to his line according to him. But says he's a good organiser and good shot stopper. Is prone to the occasional brain fart but improved massively on that side of it in the last 2 years. I think he'll be very reliable for us and is about as good a backup as you could hope for but he'll quite obviously not be as good as Gordon as you say, so we shouldn't be judging to the same standards IMO.

We are really going to have to strengthen the defence to compensate for losing the best GK in the country. Yep. We are never going to replace Gordon with the same quality. Unless you produce a budget of say 30 million plus or produce your own (as we did with Gordon) then you simply have to work at the level we are at. At any time, Zander Clark would have been our established number 1 goalkeeper but obviously had Gordon in his way. Hopefully he seizes this opportunity with both hands. He won’t have a bigger or better opportunity again imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just about to ask. Craig wasn't so great with his distribution. Often annoyed me that defenders would involve him in certain situations. How is Clark with his feet? The players seemed confident to give him the ball when he came on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
