Kitman 2204 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Anybody looking at the team sheet would've known we were fucked before a ball was kicked. He has to drop Willo Riviere and Gouffran for us to stand a chance against the mackems imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Can we not sign a keeper who is sat twiddling his thunbs because he is out of contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30167 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 That's almost certainly not the worst you've made on here. http://www.thepfa.com/transferlist/listedplayers/sortbydate/gk/outofcontract/-1/-1/-1/1/ Tomasz Kuszczak could do a job.

ewerk 30167 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Actually, he signed for Wolves a month ago so that list is a pile of shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6457 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 We should let Alnwick play 50-50s with our reserve team . "Go in hard lads". Thats the best chance we have of winning a game in the next few weeks. And Pardiola knows it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1977 0 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Can we not sign a keeper who is sat twiddling his thunbs because he is out of contract. As long as there's room within the 25 man squad rule, any player that was out of contract when previous transfer window closed can be signed and registered to play. How many of those are around though? Emergency loan deal for Brad Friedel wouldn't be the worst thing to do. Or perhaps Mourinho fancy Petr Cech to improve the odds for Newcastle against Man Utd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Well 90 minutes that offered so much and gave so little the final 25 minutes were almost like a training game to Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 6457 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 The commentator said last night that both Krul and Elliott were out until mid January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 So most shots on target will go in until then, fantastic. I'm sure they'll unregister Darlow and bring in a loan Jan 1st but it's going to cost us another loss to the tramps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 According to physioroom.com. Krul ankle/foot injury 3 weeks Alnwick shoulder injury no return date Elliot hip/thigh injury 3 weeks That leaves us with Freddie Woodman a 17 year old kid with no first team experience to face the blue pop guzzlers and the Xmas and new years fixtures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelie 103 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 If my memory is standing firm to some degree after 82 years of wear & tear, I think that many moons ago Sunderland's youngest first team starter at one point was a 16+ year old goalkeeper called Forster. If I'm right then perhaps 17 year old Woody might be a better choice than Jak-shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30167 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Turns out Alnwick will be fit for the derby. Whether that was before or after we appealed to the PL for an emergency loan is unclear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobos 297 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Although has was poor and very much at fault for goals, we could have had krul in last nighþ and we'd still have got a spanking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we were shit, but we were mostly shit at White Hart lane last November and Krul somehow kept us in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelie 103 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 It is my firm belief that age has got nowt to do with it, it's all about skill, ability & confidence at any age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree for some outfield positions, but experience & maturity is a massive factor for 'keepers. If Alnwick and Woodman had been recalled from being 1st choice at a Championship/League 1 club I'd say they've the experience regardless of their age. But these kids haven't played competitive football consistently and, as we've already seen, are flappable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trooper 940 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 If it comes down to it having to be Woodman on Sunday shirley we have someone with a bit of experience in the Premiership stepping in and taking the goalies jumper. A bit like the old days if the keeper was injured or sent off, don't forget Shearer started playing football as a goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these kids haven't played competitive football consistently and, as we've already seen, are flappable. Aye I agree experience is more important for keepers than outfielders. That being said I'd still prefer to see Woodman start the derby mind as Alnwick looked completely fucking incapable, the lad couldn't even get his positioning right on two of the goals ffs. Woodman at least seems to be respected in the youth set up (hopefully for more than the fact his dad is a coach) whereas Alnwick already knows this is his last few month at the club. I'd say that I was disgusted that the FA have decided to prevent us from getting an emergency loan on a bit of a technicality but tbh I expect no less from that fucking shambles.

scoobos 297 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Might not be popular, but I see the F.A as right here. We have 4 keepers, it's the clubs responsibility to maintain 3 decent keepers. We've had 1 decent keeper since harper went, and he's been in the shop window anyway (krul). Ashley really does know fuck all about a football squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 16995 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Alnwick is fit so will play Sunday after Pardew demolishes him in in the post match interview after Spurs. Instead of being positive he said it was a shame for the players who had "put a shift in" that Alnwick made mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
