Goalkeeper thread.

[Oldbutnotdone]

Error prone - against Norwich, Sunderland and Burton last season - Maxwell rushing out led to a goal scoring opportunity or a potential hand ball in sunderland's case.
Against Barnsley at home he went to catch the ball, dropped and they had a chance which they probably should have scored.
Birmingham at home - both him and Huntington were to blame.
Derby and Morecombe at home - should have saved the shot.

Now i'm not having a go at Maxwell because coming out a lot/taking risks will lead to more mistakes being made - example was the Liverpool goalkeeper yesterday.

And actually if you read my post back I think Maxwell is the better keeper because as mentioned being proactive is a lot better then reactive.
Rudd does make mistakes but not as many BUT there were times last and this season where he has stayed rooted to his line and the opposition have scored. Bolton/QPR away are two examples. QPR at home this season we got away with because of a fantastic save but it shouldn't have come to that.

Last point: Our defence before Christmas was better with Maxwell. I also remember us conceding a lot less goals from set pieces with Maxwell in net then Rudd. I agree with you - Maxwell should be starting.

You fell for it buddy!

You have listed very few occasions over 60 games some of which you exaggerate for effect. This volume even if all were justified makes him less error prone than the vast majority of pro keepers, the vast majority of whom play safe at all costs simply because the don't want to put up with this kind of shit.

This post made me laugh out loud. What a way to make judgement on two individuals. You cannot be serious, surely? "Love Island esque pumped physique" - of course this means he's prone to throwing a strop, I mean, it's the only common sense thing to think, right? And to think Maxwell is cocky because he went for a run abroad, where it was probably very warm, without a top on, makes him cocky. Then, Rudd's a Vegan therefore that automatically makes him a nice guy. Haha, you've provided me with a great laugh today.

I've seen some codswallop on here but this takes this biscuit.

No mate you’re right if this was a court of law the circumstantial evidence would be summarily dismissed but it’s a football forum and I always found it interesting to form a view on characters from long sight. I could detail more ‘evidence’, all completely opinion based. I do actually reckon though I’m partly right and indeed lots of football managers make their selection decisions not strictly on what they see on the pitch but they are slightly influenced by their characters and essentially whether they like them or not, same as in any walk of life. That’s why I reckon a lot of the time the fan, who only sees players ‘in combat’ is actually a better judge as they are not influenced by the largely irrelevant background noise of character throughout the week and only judges on performance.

What are you on about? He's made 3 errors in his only 2 games this season.

Just like everyone else who randomly quotes what they feel fits you have absolutely no substance to what you say!

Without you and many others being able to quote Fulham away (I was there) you can have no justification. Fulham away was 12 months ago!!

Yet you do exactly the same with Maxwell.

Funny how you joined here when Maxwell joined PNE. 🙄

If you aren't Maxwell himself, as all you do is defend him, then you are related very very closely to him. 😱

I'm not giving Maxwell shit. I actually want him to start but for some reason you just highlight the bits you want to read and ignore the rest - bit weird.
You asked for his mistakes and I listed them. You can dress over them as much as you want they were mistakes from the goalkeeper which led to a goal. Maybe if you weren't so far up every goalkeepers ass all the time you would admit this to.
And just so we are clear - I want Maxwell to start.
