If thats the thought pattern I'd rather recall Sol Brynn and play him than Roberts. Roberts has played 4 games and was at very poor and at fault for goals in 2 of them.The fact is, we’re talking about Steffen almost every week. But most importantly HE’S NOT OUR KEEPER. If he’s not staying here, why are we playing him? The idea was this season was a developmental season, wasn’t that why Carrick was appointed?
he is the weakest link in this team, inspires no confidence in our players or fans, well below an acceptable standard !It's always the way that people try to pin the blame on certain players after a defeat.
A big part of the way we play is possession based and he is comfortable being part of that, but this will always lead to mistakes.
Even the best at it make mistakes, Edison for example and even yesterday Sarr made a bigger mistake than Steffen's.
He's been infinitely better that what we had last season and yesterday I thought his performance was mixed - there was some good stuff and some not so good stuff.
Whether he's here next season remains to be seen, but he certainly not a weak link in this team.
1. No he isn't1. he is the weakest link in this team,
2. inspires no confidence in our players
3. or fans,
4. well below an acceptable standard !
In your opinion of course.he is the weakest link in this team, inspires no confidence in our players or fans, well below an acceptable standard !
A bit of an error on his part showing you his payslip I suppose...He is on mad money with city
Is that A joke as since Randolph we’ve had some horrendous keepersFor years, we've been spoilt with - quality - keepers, we were due a drop, Steffen is ok but no where near where we need a keeper to be..
The big issue there is the skill set required to play league 1 and 2 is very different.The problem with Brynn is he's not played at a very high level. The step up to the championship seems quite big for keepers. We've had a few who've done really well in league one or two but struggled here.
However well he's done it's a big ask for him to go from league 2 to starting for a championship promotion contender. But of course I'd trust Carrick's judgement if he thought he was ready.
Pears, Steele, Turnbull, Jones........Appreciate it’s a step up to play in the Championship. But this is the same MFC that recently hoyyed Ainsley Pears into the first team. IIRC Pears had much less experience??
Not a great example I appreciate as Pears was poor. But does suggest a club willing to take risks
No, you're just judging the timescale too narrowly:Is that A joke as since Randolph we’ve had some horrendous keepers
I wasn't going to add any comments on another Steffen thread, already commented on him a few times, but your comments are comical.1. No he isn't
2. Made up
3. Extrapolated from your own (flawed) opinion
4. Again your opinion and based on a few things that he has done which NEARLY led to goals (but didn't)
Indeed I do. With your good self it seems to be more a case of watching but not understanding.Do you actually see him live or just watch him at home on the tv with your slippers on?
The irony.With your good self it seems to be more a case of watching but not understanding.
And your use of the word "should" tells me all I need to know about your confirmation bias.His ridiculous pass out in the first half was utterly brainless and should have resulted in a goal.
So their best player is 12 yards from goal with a free shot on goal under no pressure. Steffen is beaten, but I have confirmation bias because I believe they should have scored?And your use of the word "should" tells me all I need to know about your confirmation bias.
I'm done on this subject. Steffen will play on Saturday, I'm sure he'll do something that will go in your notebook.
Enjoy that.
