El Prontonise Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 (edited) Just now, Lush Vlad said: I have no issues with the sweeper keeper thing. It is a big part of how we play and it has worked more than it hasn’t. When it doesn’t. Well…… it’s spectacularly bad You could see 10-20 yards away he wasn’t getting there. I know it’s high risk/high reward. But that was painful. Like watching a car crash in slow motion. Yeah, I don't mind it as well but tonight's mistake was utterly awful.

Give Ramsdale a long run in the side. Completely turned the game on it's head, total head-loss. So frustrating. He was great for 6 months, he's been good to above average since the sending-off, he's now costing us points in Europe and the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpie Mover Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 We need to give Ramsdale a run and find out if he is good enough to replace Pope, if he isn't then buy Trafford and see if he's good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 I can no longer defend. Cost us the game tonight. Nice lad, half decent keeper, zero confidence and some degree of head loss. Dropping him would be for him and for the right message to the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenlau88210 Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 I thought that kind of rushing out only happens when I goof around playing FIFA with my friends. Comical to see that in real life Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fak Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 Spending BIG on a GK in the summer is a must. Ramsdale is probably better than Pope at this point but I doubt it's the improvement that could take us to the next level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 I absolutely love Pope and the player he’s been for us but I can’t handle his kicking. That’s a way bigger issue for me than anything else. It brings huge unnecessary pressure on us every game multiple times Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted November 25, 2025 Share Posted November 25, 2025 Stick him on the bench until Easter minimum, he's been great at times but these braindead rushes of blood are fucking killing us in big games. He's got to take at least 60% of the blame for that tonight - 20 seconds into a hugely important half of CL football that has automatic qualification riding on it and he does that? A strong manager benches him and let's him stew on it for a long while, he's got to better than that, shocking mental mistake that completely swung the pendulum their way immediately. Horrific keeping and needs a reaction from Howe tbh, it was that bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to be the club we all think we can be, our #1 GK can the the least worst out of tweedle dee and tweedle dum. Get a bonafide #1 who will suit our style of play (whatever the fuck is even is?!) and let these two chumps fight it out for the backup spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe what I was seeing for the Marseille first goal. What on earth was he thinking? AND this type of mistake is happening more often. These mistakes will impact on our defenders. Just look at Thiaw screaming at him whilst he was dealing with Aubameyang. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d be toast in the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
