vegas-voss Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 He has always been between pish and average.The amount of folk that were desperate for us to sign him and then some even wanted him to replace Gordon before the injury is mental.

RS86 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 He can be a very good shot stopper. Doesn't always look the most confident though. And often palms the ball back out to danger.

feej Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 For someone who's 6ft 5ins, he doesn't command his box, he's shite when coming for cross balls, punches when a catch is easy and gets beaten to them when appears to be favourite ie Gogic today. I'm not sure how vocal he is either, keeper needs to help out those in front of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo61 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 He has been getting worse for the 2 months this season and last 3/4 of last season. No idea why, he used to be alright, now he can't even kick the ball properly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briever Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Craig cant come back quick enough - Clark is a decent backup but I suspect there was a reason he was without a club last summer - he's a fecking dracula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavK1012 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Quite embarrassing he is in the Scotland setup...average at best, fairly poor overall....nothing worse than having a keeper who you know has a few cock ups in him so to speak...that unease spreads through the team and terraces...

We needed to bring in a young up and coming keeper thats a few years ahead of stone. Robbie McCrorie would fit the bill. He's clearly not fancied at Rangers and is just being used as one of their developed players for Europe. I love Craig Gordon to bits, but he's 40. Ben Foster was recently talking about his reasons for retiring from Wrexham, and his legs not working like they used to before was basically the reason, he couldn't get down quickly enough and muscle memory wasn't working. Where he would have naturally started moving his legs to narrow the angle, they were a second too late too often. Extremely worried Craig might already have hit that point. With a double leg break too, its really unclear. McCrorie is signed to 2025. So a fee would be required, but if the laddie wanted to come Rangers might be a bit more open to letting him go. At 25, he needs game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the main, he's done alright standing in for Gordon but he makes too many bad errors. I wouldn't agree that he's not even backup materials. I'm not even sure he gets apportioned even 50% of the blame for today's goal, unless he's given Kent a shout. We won't know. 🤷🏻♂️ Kent should be banging that ball into touch every time regardless. For me he's made the mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruyff Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Need to go and find a top keeper. It's the hardest position to recruit for, I get that. I mean we could have easily signed someone like Vladan Kovačević last season from Sarajevo. There's good keepers out there, if our recruitment team and scouts are worth a sook, they'll find them.

Famous 1874 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 He’s getting worse and worse every week.

Hearts1975 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) We might as well give McGovern a shot. Maybe taking Zander out for a few games is the best solution and then we can see if we get a response from McGovern. No point signing a keeper with that level of experience to have him sitting on a bench week in, week out, doing absolutely nothing.
