jdckelly Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 he's a perfectly adequate keeper, won't in general be a disaster but there are better goalkeepers out there. Personally I wouldn't be opposed to him being the first choice as any time I've seen Darlow this season I've been less than impressed but don't think its that big a deal.

Ronaldo Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Wouldn't be opposed to him being first choice? We went down the last time that happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 We absolutely need a new, solid goalkeeper. I'd be going all out for somebody like Begovic. Darlow is adequate back-up, Krul and Sels can be sold to wherever and Jelliot jettisoned into the North Sea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stal Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I don't like him, never have. But I'd still play him in centre midfield ahead of colback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 The thought of Elliot being first choice next season. That's about as likely to happen as us winning the league is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stal Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 The thought of Elliot being first choice next season. That's about as likely to happen as us winning the league is. Or as likely as us winning the league with Elliot in goal as 1st choice. Is that a paradox? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wtf is this, didn't he get player of the season and several man of the match displays?i can only think of one error against Everton which was hardly Darlows against Norwich levels of shitness Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 He's s*** man. Sure I posted a link which proved the 'good shot stopper' thing wrong where he had the 3rd or 4th worst shots saved percentage along with the likes of Stekelenburg and Bunn.

Optimistic Nut Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 And normally it's teams at the bottom who have the best in that category because they face more shots. This season for example, Heaton, Pickford, Grant & Jakopovic are in the top 6. http://scores.nbcsports.msnbc.com/epl/player_leaders.asp?category=107 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Not making errors doesn't make a good keeper man. Stoke away when Shaqiri hit one from outside the box, ball ended up a yard or two from Elliot, and he didn't move. That's not an 'error' in the way you think Darlow at Norwich for instance, it's just plain shite goalkeeping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats like that prove absolutely nothing tbf. Nobody wants him first choice next season but he's an alright keeper. Hated by the internet for disliking its favourite son. As has been said, 3rd choice next year behind Darlow & a new keeper would be spot on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly stats like that over a small sample size are irrelevant lee Grants a better keeper than Courtois?hes certainly no world beater and wouldn't want him 1st choice in the premier league but to say he had a s*** season last year is just bollocks! U can't look at Stoke away when he was obviously blocked by a player and ignore Bournemouth away when made plenty of top saves and earned 3 points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 He had a fine season last year. He's still not a good goalkeeper and people are taking issue with "I wouldn't be opposed to him being the first choice". I would be opposed. Greatly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be opposed out of the current batch, Darlows been making a few too many mistakes recently but I'd like a new keeper in the summer (if we go up), neither of them are prem standard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
