    Better than the alternative.

    Least worst option.

    Not when we play it out from the back.

    The benefits of bazs kicking don’t outweigh the goals conceded. Over a season Baz will concede more than McCarthy

    Not enough to justify playing McCarthy with the style of football we play. It just wouldn't work. And lumping it forwards isn't the answer either. So I'd rather stick with Baz.

    That's them, it's such a job to pull 'em up.

    I agree. Gavin Bazunu is a young keeper who is slowly getting better. With the best will in the world, Alex McCarthy isn’t.

    Pretty sure someone posted stats for this season that show Bazunu has actually been better than McCarthy too.

    The not606 unofficial rulebook states that we must debate who should play in goal, McCarthy or Bazunu, roughly every 2 weeks or until one of them makes a mistake, whichever comes sooner.

    Have either of them ever gone 2 weeks without making a mistake? International break the only time

    They were both faultless during June and July. Apart from summer tour matches

    So until one of them makes a mistake then.

    If Alex wasn't out of contract I'd be convinced that we'd still be having the discussion next season.
