HarryBosch Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 Would people have made such a big deal about Ripley’s clean sheets had they been armed with this newfound knowlege that it’s so easy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that token would everyone have gone easier on Wilson, Ruddy, Cornell, Coleman or any of the previous keepers if they could kick better.

The Scottish Zidane Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Hmmmm I clicked on this thread to check if there were anymore transfer rumours. Must have clicked on the keepers thread instead, my mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However teams always get shots on goal over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 On the one hand you have Rachubka, who self-identifies as a dwarf, and then you have Connor Ripley, who is fantastic. Placide is nearer to the latter. Adding to that his distribution is on another level I’m happy to have him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me their are 7-8 positions we need to strengthen before we look at Goalkeeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking on the pitch so if we are thinking off the pitch an almost entire new boardroom would help so Goalkeeper can be relegated to about 11/12th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were shit but relatively tight defensively under Shez but much more open and attacking under Wellens. That's fine when you're scoring plenty of goals but not so good when your strikers are playing like a bunch of Jaffa's. Could Placide have done better with some of those 26 goals? Yes, but I'm not concerned about keeping him in the starting eleven as he was such a big part of our initial renaissance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair 26 in 18 games - 1.44 per game is outstanding and stats to be very proud of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Considering how many players we have now shipped out, Green the latest and Banks rumoured for Swindon, isn't it time they started ie tomorrow registering the four we have 'brought' in so they are available for Saturday? OR is the official line not the whole story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotherham won’t have a clue what to work on in regards to our players. Wouldnt surprise me at all if they were all registered already. I’m sure we wouldn’t have committed to making signings knowing we would financially have to ship players out afterwards. What if no one wanted to loan any of them?

Crusoe Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Yes, you’d think the club would only be comfortable with loans out if they were reasonably confident they could replace them with newly registered players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
