Both Forster and McCarthy were good keepers but had dodgy spells. Boruc was well liked. Davis is a club legend, just not up to PL level at the end of his career. I think the criticism of Baz is justified tbh.
I agree. He has had two seasons where he played as No1. One ****e prem season and one championship Russball season. I think he would be much better under the new manager.
I'd like to see what Baz would be like with outfield players who are good defensively. I'm sure this would massively improve his confidence and would help raise his performance. That being said, he's not the right goalkeeper for us yet especially on the contract he's currently on and should never have been signed at such a young age as our number one. Where young 'keepers break through they most often come from the academy (eg Buffon, Casillas) and paying over the odds for someone untested at that level is just another black mark for our recruitment.
Gk, seems to have been an chilled heel since about 2005/6 with the exit of Niemi, who was outstanding for us and a really top keeper. Yes Kelvin was fine at champ level, but that was his level, Boruc did well for a short time, and I think Forster had a strong 18 months under Koeman. Since then it's been mainly meh with bright spots. Mccarthy look really good in his first run for the team when he got an England call, but we have not has sustained consistency since Niemi
