THE SOUTHAMPTON GOALKEEPING CRISIS FLOWCHART please log in to view this image Seriously though, what do we do? DTLW
We really are'nt in a position to compensate for Gazzaniga's constant errors, like i said in the matchday thread thats now 4 points and 3 cleans sheets he has cost. Surely Nigel wont put up with it, i doubt Nigel will care about the confidence of Gazzaniga when he is costing the team and letting down the other players.
I favour an invisible net that we place over our own goal. 'How did that not go in?' pundits will exclaim, while we smile knowingly in Adkins inimitable style.
Adkins: “Paulo has got to save it, it changed the game. We have 3 good keepers & we have good competition and he has to save it.”
Boruc is the most accomplished goalkeeper of the three. He's also patently insane. Gazzaniga probably has the best physical attributes. He's also error-prone. Davis has the best track record over the past twelve months. He's also probably not good enough for this level. Thus, the only solution is to sign Dexter Blackstock on an emergency loan.
At least that would be an entertaining way to lose points. Think toothy would come off best whoever hit him though.
Can't we just get Boruc to injure Davis and Gazza and Copper then himself?, then we could bring a loan in.
It is completely inane to say that Gazza cost us 4 points as there are 10 other southampton players on the pitch who are responsible for the result. He has made many mistakes and only two good saves imo, he is technically inadequate and reckless with his decision making. However football isn't played between two goalkeepers.
We don't need to do much; brew the morning coffee a little too strong, and Boruc will take care of the rest.
Davis. I wouldn't want to change a lot if possible but it was just so obvious it was going to go in when he was lining it up...
Although I think Paulo should've saved it did it not clip off Clyne and change the direction/trajectory slightly? Not a huge amount of course but not just a straight blunder. Although I have said we should stick with Gazza for a few games, I think it's Borat time (or even SKD time...eek)
Thing is Davis is to slow at diving, Gazza makes mistakes and Boroc is mental. Maybe if we some how combined the 3?.
But we would have Davis amazing reaction saves, Gazza's ability to dive and Boruc ability to marshal the defence better.
