Impressive how much Elliot has improved whilst being seriously injured, overweight and never playing.

 

He was our POTS so don't think people are overrating him.

 

[emoji38] He's shit and we got relegated. Least shitty shit is not an award of any relevance.

You weren't saying that at the time like. Basically everyone was agreed that he had played decently during his run in the team

 

 

Incidentally, him playing decently on occasion, and him being lauded as a good goalkeeper based upon his POTS award are slightly different things.

Rob Elliot is a fat cunt, he wears a fat cunts hat

And when he's in the bakers, he says I'm having that

He's scranning all the pasties, he's scranning all the cakes

And when we see him in our goal we all go for fuck sake

 

Disappointed this never got an airing before Ritchie stole the tune.

Aye well I never said he was actually a good goalkeeper or our POTS

Darlow I'm totally undecided on, but I really like some of the stuff he does, he's fairly confident in the box (QPR aside) and is a decent shot stopper. But of course has made big errors that have essentially cost us 4 points. Sels/Elliot in that position would rightly get pelters. I still wouldn't want Sels back because I don't think he brings any confidence to those in front of him. And Elliot, well I just don't really like him as a player or person. Reality, I don't think any of them are good enough for the prem

Absurd to blame the keeper alone for dropping points the other night. Mitrovic should have rendered Darlow's mistake irrelevant.

Are you his Da?

 

I've criticised Mitro enough in that thread so won't bang on about him in here (my opinion on him hasn't changed yet). But Mitro not scoring some fairly decent chances (where there is a fair probability in each case he might not score) is not the same as Darlow essentially hoying the ball to their striker in front of an open goal. Maybe criticising him for throwing away points at QPR is harsh, and in that game there were multiple offenders, but Darlow vs Norwich was by far the biggest mistake that cost us points IMO

Up to about 6 weeks ago I thought he'd be enough to see us through next season but not now. It's like with Bramble. It's all well and good him looking top class for 89 minutes but if these brain farts that are standing out are going to be a regular thing then it's no good. We're effectively starting at 0-1 every 2 or 3 games in the Premier League.

 

We can worry about next season in good time, for all we know Krul may be back here. There's going to be some hefty investment needed next season, but keeper wouldn't be the priority for me. f*** me, we had Jak Alnwick in goal not too long ago in the premier.

 

I'd be very surprised if Krul stays like. Very rare for a regular first team player to be loaned out in the prime of his career to come back, particularly when we paid for a keeper in the summer.

That before or after Burnley away? Must've been about then. Another shot he should've saved.

The Jak Alnwick fiasco just highlighted how important it is to have a really good goalkeeper at that level. If Krul leaves permanently it's a position I'd be looking to strengthen, no doubt about it.

Think oir best bet is to stick with him tbh and hope he comes good. Elliot is awful and has been injured for a very long time. Sels couldn't catch a ball thrown to him by a toddler

 

To be fair that's fucking solid.

Probably our weakest area now. How many points have him and Sels cost us between them now? 1 home to Huddersfield, 2 at Villa & Norwich and two today just off the top of my head. Need a keeper in the summer if we go up just to stand a chance. That's before we consider the other glaringly obvious weak links.
