A Keeper and a Defender?

[andrew1957]

I am not sure that the keeper position is priority as our main problem is not the number we concede but the number we score. If we scored more regularly there will be less pressure on the keepers.

I'll be happy with

Shane Long
Siggy
Alex McCarthy
Morrison

Maybe, Yes, Maybe, No.

[Ian Royal]

Would that because we are leaking goals every game then?

Oh no. We aren't.

Yes we are, we can't keep a clean sheet to save our lives. We're not shipping a tonne of goals but we are conceding soft goals in almost every game, and as we've had trouble scoring at the other end, it has been costing us.

Er... we've kept a clean sheet in a third of Bri's league games in charge and halved the number of goals we were conceding.

[Longhorn1970]

Just need to defend better ... GK Bond is fine

[AthleticoSpizz]

Bond cannot distribute..but AAH can

Despite the early season wobblers, nowadays, we have no cause to complain about Wigwams ex Premiership keeper

Get through it folks......even Marcus was cast-off for being dodgy once upon a time

Bond tends not to throw the ball in his own net ..

[AthleticoSpizz]

.......yes of course....whatever

[AthleticoSpizz]

....and there goes Ingram (a cracking-up-and-coming keeper) from Wycombe to QPR

Would've been great cover (and a decent first team challenge) for Al Ali

Has had rave-revues all season

Maybe, Yes, Maybe, No.

That can be read two ways!

Let me expand then.
Long - maybe - i don't recall much recent success or playing time for him. But i don't follow the PL closely
Sig - Yes - he's total quality
McCarthy - maybe - his head seemed to have got turned by wags and ££££s not sure he's really progressed, maybe gone backwards
Morrison - no - was a mistake waiting to happen for us and we've got good defenders. Don't think he's progressed much

[Snowball136]

That's a goal every 149 minutes, a goal/assist every 119 minutes

Scored against
Vitesse in Europa League
Newcastle
Manchester City

2 Goals plus 2 assists v MK Dons

Prem only, just 929 minutes for 5 goals, a goal every 186 minutes.

He would be stonkingly awesome in the current RFC side.

He's played at least 24 games on the wing, both right and left

8 goals and 2 assists 2015-16 in 1192 mins = 186 mins/Goal or 119Goal/Assist
7 goals and 7 assists 2014-15 in 2176 mins = 311 mins/Goal or 156 Goal/Assist
7 goals and 3 assists 2013-14 in 2400 mins = 343 mins/Goal or 240 Goal/Assist
8 goals and 5 assists 2012-13 in 2350 mins = 294 mins/Goal or 165 Goal/Assist
8 goals and 1 assists 2011-12 in 2284 mins = 286 mins/Goal or 254 Goal/Assist

He doesn't love you anymore. Get over it.

[OLLIE KEARNS]

Palace have had a request to take Rob Green on loan rejected. McCarthy off somewhere perhaps......
