The question most have posed is that Ward is undoubtedly the worst PL keeper, possibly one of the worst in the championship and could well be only mud range league 1. The justifiable question has been, not if Iversen is world class, but is he better, or at least level with, a mid ranking League one keeper?
lee7 Posted 28 February 2023 Posted 28 February 2023 Honking positioning for their 1st as he wasn't quick enough to get back to the centre of his goal but in all fairness to him he had made 2 or 3 quality saves by that point. 2

The narrative is actually Ward is definitely not good enough and Rodgers needs to give Iversen an extended chance to see if he is good enough or at the very least better than our current number 1 for the rest of this season. Tonight iits reasonable to say ihe saved us from losing that match by a much bigger margin and showed in a 1v1 scenario that he is more confident than Ward. 1

Agreed, and I know it isn't saying much but I still saw him as an improvement on Ward. Made two really good saves, and held his own in 1v1s, which is arguably Ward's biggest weakness, along with shot stopping, positioning and basically any basic fundamentals that would be expected from a League One goalie. 2

What is his realistic level? So if he’s more than good enough for League Two … What club in L2 next season will be minted enough to pay him his £40K/week … and needs a “hometown boy returns” angle to feed their Hollywood publicity machine? Yep. We loan him to Wrexham for a penny. He may have to ride the bus to Bradford and Grimsby, but they’ll make a movie about him. Probably throw a homecoming parade. Win-win. Unless anyone has a better idea? Because nobody, NOBODY, is going to buy him on Prem wages through 2025. 1
adam1 Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 Positioning for that penalty was atrocious. Don't know why Iversen isn't playing.

Your Honour Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 It’s getting to a point where I really dislike him. Atrocious goalkeeper, one of the worst I’ve seen at this level. 2
beepee1984 Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 If we all say the same thing about Ward having a weakness on one on ones. Why do we continue to defend a very high line with CB that have no pace, we need to defend deeper and stop teams getting in behind

He just saved a penalty, after the twat handled it. The shit defence then passed the ball straight to the argie minutes before he scored his next chance The shit defence has to take accountability. Everyone knows Ward is shit, so maybe we should be trying to limit the chances rather than keep leaving one on ones 1

Vestan Pance Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 Saved a penalty then redeemed himself by getting nowhere near a one on one. 1
beepee1984 Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 It's the back peddling that I really hate, if he stays further forward he leaves the striker a much narrow target. 4
BillyFOX12 Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 Looked a weak attempt by Alvarez. I think Kasper saves that one.
lcfcsnow Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 Sacking Rodgers isn't enough, we can't stay up with this keeper.
funkyrobot Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 Our biggest threat of relegation is Danny Ward. 3 1

We have a direct alternative for Ward already at the club in Iversen. 1
funkyrobot Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 These are the games when a quality keeper would’ve got us a point. 2
FoxTimmy2 Posted 4 March 2023 Posted 4 March 2023 I'm his biggest critic but there is nothing he could have done here. The pen save makes up for the 1v1 goal. 1
