Jack Butland at Rangers is better than both Trafford and Muric.

Sometimes it's not that difficult this management thing.

I like Butland and he's doing well north of the border - but Butland cannot do what VK wants from his goalkeeper...

(not many can).

CoolClaret

Exactly this. Who would use the Sheff United keeper as a defence - they are the only team who have been sh-itter than us !! Those who thought Muric was the answer have been made to look a bit stupid. That does not mean he did not deserve a chance to play as he certainly did. But those who have said...

CoolClaret

I have to say that as an ex goalkeeper I would expect to be dropped for the 2 errors There's literally 0 point in doing so at this point. If anything, we need to throw even more caution to the wind on the off chance that we win 3+ of our remaining games. We will only win taking big chances and tryi...

CoolClaret

You also realise this “better run” we’ve been on has been against 0 sides in the top 6. Muric has to be dropped, he’s nowhere near good enough, this leagues hard enough without having a keeper prone to an absolute clanger. Like I said you won’t see another PL goalkeeper make those same 2 mistakes, ...

What a pile of utter tosh, you mean Muric should be dropped because he’s made two awful amateur level mistakes that have cost us points. Mistakes so bad, you won’t see another like them all season unless Muric does it again. Weird Burnley fans can’t accept they were harsh on Trafford after seeing h...

CoolClaret

I find it crazy how 90% of this board is based on kompany decision making and selections and yet when he finally changes the keeper and we have our best run of results (all be it not much to shout about) people can’t understand how important muric is It really is this simple. I blame social media/s...

CoolClaret

Don't have a problem with wanting Muric back in. I did. You were relentless in your criticism of Trafford. Relentless. Your tone would've been far different had Trafford, or Traff, made the error that Muric made today. Because I was frustrated watching us serve up that dross week in week out when I...

CoolClaret

His central point is accurate. You have agenda against Traffford and you couldn't wait to criticise him. You've campaigned against Trafford more than anyone on here. For the 10,000th time My 'agenda' is wanting players to play that: - Did nothing to be warranted being dropped in the first place - A...

CoolClaret

Trolls lol you’re full of crap, you were quite happy to start thread after thread criticising Trafford for far less but you want to sweep clown goalkeeping under the rug because it’s Muric, you’d have been happy as pig sh!t if Trafford did that. Complete agenda driven hypocritical bs You honestly h...

It’s defined by 38 games and the key points in those games. Can’t change those goalposts to support a view.

It is defined by 38 games - you are correct.

He's played in just 5 of the 33 games we've played, had 2 poor mistakes yes, yet 3 other extremely good performances.

Yet to play in goal against a top 7 side so ridiculous comparison.

Our season isn't defined by results against the top 7 though - it's by teams in the bottom half.

CoolClaret

Bellers had a wonderful interview here after the game and directly addresses Muric's performance today and since his time at the club. https://youtu.be/PZIcYtiwx80?si=l-WkmZerCleMeHe3 Great words - wish some on here could understand what he's trying to get at... Also interesting the glowing characte...

Show me a mistake from Trafford that was worse than the ones Muric has made in the last two games please! :x Traff made a similar mistake to Aro's against Everton when away at Luton earlier in the season - it just spooned wide instead. That also isn't the point, nor has it ever been. The arg, at le...

Yet the experts on here wanted him in.

Hope they're happy.

Sorry I forgot, the alternative... *checks notes*... 1 home win, 9 losses and 1 draw, was a much better alternative, wasn't it?

CoolClaret

Traff literally did the same as Muric did last week against Luton away - it just deflected wide but was pretty much the same mistake.

Today is a massive blunder - no doubt about it.

What we need, imo, is to pick and choose our moments to play out and moments to just kick it long.

CoolClaret

Why on earth we dont play 3 in midfield with Brownhill joining the other two, rather have Brownhill in than both Fofana and Foster together I thought this was meant to be the plan from the start. Two sitting midfielders with Brownhill ratting from the front - just like we did to start the Champ las...

CoolClaret

Muric 4 - damn shame, I'm a huge fan and he's supremely talented. If he can just improve his concentration and cut this sort of thing out the sky's the limit for him.
Assignon 6
Ekdal 8*
Esteve 8
Vitinho 6
Berge 7
Cullen 7
Bruun Larsen 5
Odobert 6
Foster 4
Fofana 4

Taylor 5
Rodriguez 6

CoolClaret

Might get pellets for this but I thought we were very good today against a more that decent Brighton side, yes we missed chances and conceded chances but on the whole I thought we looked good. Also Muric is twice the keeper Trafford is but he’s always had a clanger in him. I agree. We should have b...

Muric made loads of mistakes last season

Any keeper playing as a sweeper in a team with a high defensive line will make mistakes at a higher rate than in a Dyche style setup.

Popey would look utterly shite in this system.

CoolClaret

What needs to change is trying to play out when the opposition is set in position - we should pick and choose our moments better and only try and play through the lines/force it when an opposition player is out of position.

CoolClaret

Shame that, think spt is correct in confidence. Even his distribution wasn't up to par today and that's a real shame.

Interestingly both goals and most chances today came from the other team bollocksing up from cocking around at the back - need to change it up more than we have.

Rubbish they are equally as bad as each other

Nah. One is a deflection that spooned up and over from dallying on the ball for a tad bit too long.

This is standing in front of your goal and taking a terrible (attempt?) of a touch.

CoolClaret

Im not sure I'd do it myself but I can understand the argument to rotate Trafford back in after today. Muric probably got us points we wouldn't have got otherwise the other 3 but that's two game shattering errors in a row beyond any of Traffs mistakes. Absolutely gutted. Can't see us winning now. I...

CoolClaret

Trafford made a good dozen errors before getting dropped and was a perpetual deer in headlights aside from one half. But Muric has gone from 3 arguably MOTM performances in a row to 2 in a row with absolutely unforgivable howlers that have left me speechless. Just can't believe those two errors by ...

That's why I wanted JB in the ten from the start of the season btw. Just for his ability to press/rat about from the front.

I said this after the Wolves ‘free kick’ in our game. European matches are much more physical contests than in our country. Refs actually need to see a foul, rather than someone falling over.
