Lush Vlad Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 My fenland source (not Colman’s mustard) has always said he’ll be back playing in April. So it would be great if he’s back even sooner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

500bhp Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 He's been the biggest injury miss hasn't he? The difference in goals conceded before and after his injury is frightening! We actually kept five clean sheets in a row after the Brighton game in September. Seems like a lifetime ago now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I think our midfield is a bigger reason for the conceeded goals than us missing Pope. Sure he'd probably save a few more chances than Dubs have, but I don't think it would have made a big difference to where we are today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 It’s cost us at least 4 or 5 points I’d say. Which in the grand scheme of things does make a big difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Probably would have made a few more saves than dubs but highly doubt the results would be any different, especially when a large amount of goals conceded are down to defensive fuckups instead of keeper.

Dubravka's starting position is much deeper than Pope's, so our defense drops deeper and suddenly there's a big gap between them and the midfield that is being repeatedly exploited. We are setup with a sweeper keeper type defensive line but we don't have the keeper to do the job. You almost never see Dubs heading clear or making interceptions outside the area.
