The Doctor

I mean, it's a tough call between the decaying corpse of Craig Gordon, and Danny Ward.

I mean it is Wales, and their other option is a bench warming bloke who's too stupid to know what a Nazi salute looks like. not exactly blessed with options.

honestly it's unfathomably bad that he's chucking in 2 more goals per game than the average keeper, like **** me, with him in goal you have to score 3 just to have a chance of a draw.

the xG stats are just hilariously bad. https://fbref.com/en/comps/9/keepersadv/Premier-League-Stats Mads - prevented 5.8 goals more than expected, the highest in the division and the highest on a per 90 basis than any keeper who's played more than 3 games. Ward - 5th worst in the division, conceded 3.1 more than expected in just 1.5 games, would be miles out in front on a per 90 basis if he weren't excluded due to the tiny sample size of games he's had.

"dear Danny, we care about you and think you should retire rather than continue to embarrass yourself". don't think it'll catch on as a chant tbh

I think that meal deal has a bit more to it than this bloke tbh

recruitment is the DoFs job but he's neglected it so much that he just rubber stamps whatever the manager wants, hence why we signed Kristensen and Souttar and both were sidelined completely within 6 months and a change of manager, then renewed Vestegaard for 3 years only for him to be completely sidelined again after another 4 months and a change of manager, and why with any luck we won't see Ayew or BDCR pollute the KP pitch again once RvN has his own squad to pick from.

if that comes from the wolves player, and I struggle to believe it came from Ward given he's on his goalline and the ball is the edge of the box, then it should be a free kick and yellow card. Another cockup by Anthony Taylor.

we'd have drawn, because a goalkeeper with functioning arms wouldn't have conceded any of the three he did yesterday

who on earth voted ward above a 1? he's lucky 0 isn't an option

dick would be more effective as a keeper if he only had one hand tbh

if the half time entertainment next Sunday isn't season ticket holders getting to pelt tomatoes at him, I'm not going

Newcastle was a disgrace but he didn't really have a squad to pick from did he? since Ruud took over our xGA is 18th, xG is 12th and xPts is 14th. it is, miraculously, better than cooper (who was bottom 2 on all of those) which tells you how bad that lord of the rings reject was

start Ward, Ayew and Justin with instructions to punch Salah from the off. three reds and a brawl, should get the game abandoned and the benefit of all three being suspended for a good while

loud Rudkin out chants in the kop (starting in ufs) after the second

would have been 0-0 with an actual keeper in goal, unfortunately we had a literal clown

did we keep the receipt? does absolutely nothing

first mark against him, not gonna hold Newcastle with no fit midfielders against him. selection was obviously wrong, a layewbility on the right and a man who'd drop the nails if he was being crucified in goal rather than Facundo and anyone else. that said, he needs a window to at least try and fix the mess of a squad Cooper gave him with Skipp, Ayew and BDCR, and no replacement for Kristensen

one game closer to Rudkin and Ward being taken to the Hague

never seen a stronger argument for post third trimester abortions than this man

yea there's been ironic cheers whenever he's made a save or caught the ball

does this bald twat know you're supposed to book players for persistent fouling?

Facundo on at long last

at fault for at least the second, honestly all three imo
