EnderbyFox Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 He's easily the worst starting goalkeeper in the league. Go up & down the table & tell me who you wouldn't trade Ward for?

He’s the worst in the top5 leagues, measured on average shot difficulty vs saves. In the PL he is ranked 28th out of 28 GKs. He’s absolutely as bad as people make out, how can you possibly say otherwise? Show me the info....

smudger63 Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 There was an interview with Lee Dixon earlier this week praising Ramsdale at Arsenal, and what a big difference he's made to their defence. He said if your a defender and you know you don't have to worry about the goalkeeper behind you, it helps you concentrate on your own game and defend better, and can save you at last 10 goals a season. I would be amazed if any of our defenders have any trust or confidence in Ward at all. 3

Ric Flair Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 He has a look on his face when in the sticks for us where he's constantly trying to ascertain if that diabolical gas he can smell belongs to him or someone else, its a look of concern either way. 1
FoxinNotts Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 meh, he's not great. We've always had great keepers (in my head, I'm sure someone will shout 'Rab Douglas', or something!) We need a great keeper. Go get one. They're really not that expensive

Give them 45 minutes of Danny Ward and they'd take you in goal. He's easily the worst keeper in the league by a long way. I doubt most of the championship would have him start. 2

ithuriel Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 Ah Danny Ward, the man you'd want to be in a pandemic because you know like everything else, he would not catch it. 2

Its Ward or Iversen..... end of Nothing to do with the fact that Rodgers was happy with him being our new number one? I’m sure he came out a few times and said this in interviews. Plus we just moved on Kasper who was one of our highest paid players so surely,at least, a loan move could of been possible.
Sharpe's Fox Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 Fact is when you've got a clown in the net behind you the defence will always be shakey because they tend to overcompensate. You have to start from the goalkeeper.
ARTY_FOX Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 Guys got holes for hands and a world class talent for moving out of the way.

Fox92 Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 Can I just say this thread, the initial idea and posts, just show how players not playing somehow have their opinion increased. Mad that anybody thought he would be better than Kasper and I stand by my post, about selling him, at the start of this thread in May last year. 1

gd4foxes Posted 17 January 2023 Posted 17 January 2023 4 minutes ago, Buzzell said: Why get rid of Kasper then when he had another 12 months of his contract then? Because his wage was too high... They offered him a new contract but with a significantly lower salary. He politely refused and out of mutual respect they allowed him to talk to other clubs Ultimately reducing our wage bill and helping to balance the books.
