majaco Posted 5 September 2022 Posted 5 September 2022 Ward does not look like a Premier League keeper. Iversen may not be of the required standard. But his record in the Championship suggest we would lose nothing with him playing. We might gain something. Like points. 2
Trueblue96 Posted 9 September 2022 Posted 9 September 2022 Iversen is far better than Alex Smithies and Danny Ward. If there is a chance for him to be No.1 within our squad it is right now... or at least when my microwavable casserole has finished cooking 1 1
He aint bald Posted 19 September 2022 Posted 19 September 2022 Never posted idle press speculation before but i occasionally look at the NewsNow site. Several articles on Iversen wanted by Stoke......... I was too scared to read any, should we be worried?

MPH Posted 20 September 2022 Posted 20 September 2022 I feel sorry for Ward. Kasper had a somewhat solid defense in front of him for the best part of his Leicester Career so for Ward to come in and have a totally incoherent and Downright diabolical defense in front of him to start his Leicester career is borderline unfair. basicslly, he never stood a chance to develop as a keeper in those circumstances. He didn’t even have much of a pre-season with them either to get used to everyone. 1 1

Hes been here 4 years for a start, I’d like to think he was fairly comfortable with his team mates after being here that long. Regardless of the defence infront of him he’d still show glimpses of being a good premier league goalkeeper if he was 1, but he isn’t and he’s shown nothing to say otherwise so far 1

How Evans plays in a 5 a side and how he runs around some cones is very different to how he deals with Ivan Toney running at him, for example

cruzFOX Posted 21 September 2022 Posted 21 September 2022 Give Iverson a chance let’s see what he can do. Ward is still no.1 until further notice 1

The only way of truly knowing if Ward is being dealt a bum deal here is put Iversen in and see if we improve in the goals against column. I was thinking to myself the other day about whether we'd be any better if Fofana was still here and I'm not so sure we would, but I do think Ward is all over the place and making basic errors with very little marginal gains in situations where it could be argued goalkeepers couldn't have prevented a goal. He's conceded 60% + of shots on target he's faced I've read, that is HIDEOUS. 2

There's always a chance if Iversen gets the nod he could pick up a knock later down the line and Ward would be back in. See it all the time with other clubs. Newcastle, Southampton, Palace, even Arsenal to an extent in recent years. The in-form keeper keeps their place. All down to the attitude of the individual though and how hard they're willing to work

cruzFOX Posted 28 September 2022 Posted 28 September 2022 I have nothing against Danny ward he’s our player after all but I so want Iverson to do well just cuz we desperately need a feel good story in this moment of need. Nothing seems to be going right. Having a keeper that can keep the ball out of the net will provide hope and confidence to our fragile defensive back line. Cmon Iverson we are all rooting for ya lad!
Lambert09 Posted 3 January 2023 Posted 3 January 2023 Alan Nixon claims stoke have been chasing Iversen for months. (no bid yet) Alex Neil is the stoke boss and was in charge of preston last year so knows how good he is. Personally, I hope we loan him to them and perhaps see if brendan is still here in the summer. I still think he’s the answer to the keeper issues.
Foxxed Posted 3 January 2023 Posted 3 January 2023 Given time, the time I'm convinced Brendan won't give him, I'd wager that he could be as good as if not better than Ward. How long is Iversen's contract? Isn't it almost up? I assume he'll move on and we'll have to buy a replacemet or possibly two.

I still think he’s the answer to the keeper issues. Word on the street (by which I mean FT posters who watch the development teams) is that Stolarczyk is higher rated. The scenario I can see unfolding is we sell Iversen, buy a new, youngish no. 1 like Lafont, and sell Ward a year later when Stolarczyk might be ready to be reserve GK 1

Brendan has shown zero indication that he'll play him. I mean, after our disastrous start, not to have even been given a game makes me think he'll see little to no action for the rest of the season.
