He just seems a bit over excitable.
Needs to just calm the fuck down a bit…..

Any opposition manager should be telling their players to shoot at any opportunity, and certainly be bombarding him with high crosses into the box

He hasn't though has he, many seem to be going way over the top with his Watford performance and he was fine against West Brom. I think his lack of height cost us the first goal yesterday although junior should have done better on the far post |

Being the best player at a relegated team is not necessarily a great recommendation. So far he has been useless, we need better That’s a bit harsh. He did nothing wrong yesterday so I don’t know how you come to that conclusion |

The second goal was our usual dopey selves |

It was a nice ball over. I couldn’t believe how weak junior was for a strapping bloke like he is.

Give the lad a bit of time, everyone said Iverson was shit after the first month or 2 with us and he turned out ok,,i thought we should have signed him in the end but we decided to look elsewhere,,everyone on here was saying we got a top keeper when we signed johannson now he as suddenly turned in to another scapegoat,

My issue with him and I’ve said it after the Alkmaar game I think he’ll get chipped a lot, not just due to his height, it’s his positioning he is always off his line.

He is just the sort of keeper who gives me the heeby jeebies, hopefully not the defence. All I want is a keeper claiming crosses not going walk about and instructing his defence. Travers and Iversen were far better in my eyes this is a big downgrade |

He seems all over the place in a position where you need a calm head and consistency. I’m sure he will pull off the odd great save, but not what i think we need. Would love it if he proved me wrong |

We won't bring in another keeper so let's just hope he settles down and starts performing.
There is a good keeper in there

I’ve never rated him. Lots of chest pumping and ra ra hyping of his defenders, but limited in terms of size, athleticism, and passing. His attempt to get something on the cross for their first is a good example of two of his weaknesses. His vertical leap was about one foot, and being undersized meant his arms couldn’t get there either.
Even though he is not elite, he won’t be as bad as Watford every game, and is not one of the worst keepers in the championship. If we can score at least a goal a game he’ll be a perfectly ok starter.

I think it's still a bit early to judge to be fair, he was definitely at fault last week but I dont think so this week Here's hoping anyway At fault for the first goal in the sense that he is too small to be a top keeper . As a result of his being too small he flapped at the cross and didn’t deal with it . The fact is Bonham would as he is several inches taller . Sad fact is Bonham is the best keeper we have on the books by a country mile That would be the Bonham who also comes out and completely misses crosses? Just checking.  |

His shot stopping stata this season must be as bad as butlands tragic season stats. I would imagine all our previous 5 keepers including Bonham have better stats and we thought many weren't good enough |

If he didn't take the two steps forward yesterday he would have got his hand to the ball. Small margins can be costly.
