I'm beginning to think maybe he isn't that great after all. Is it time for him to be dropped?

Ha ha, ruined my childhood that guy. Hated him as well.

We seem to have goalkeepers I either absolutely adore or couldn't bare to watch ever again, and very little in between.

Simon Royce maybe. Steady Eddie.

Roberts...tame shot...I can feel the anxiety all over again!!

Agree also on Begovic. And with Clive - I still can't fathom what was going through his head. It's not just the error, it's the thinking that has me stumped.


Yes, I'm still flummoxed by the decision making. Even though the cross was eminently catchable, I would understand if under pressure he decides to punch it clear. However, flapping? What was he thinking?

David James was similarly poor with routine crosses, particularly when representing England. Was it him who was nicknamed "Dracula" because he couldn't handle crosses?

You aren't overreacting and you aren't wrong.

With, I think, at least 4 keepers out of contract this summer I worry they'll do something stupid like re-sign him.


If he’s coming next season I fcking ain’t.

Funnily enough, I read those arm gestures as him berating himself. In any event, it's clear, whatever his inadequacies, that one or two here just love to hate him whatever he does or doesn't do. If we still somehow sink, any sane fan will know the reasons lie elsewhere.


I think he started out intending to berate Adoma but misjudged it and ended up berating thin air.

Well he's pretty good at catching it so may as well have a bit of a shout as well.

Bizarre, indeed. I'm used to it because I remember folk making similar excuses for Tony Roberts back in the day.


I'm still astounded he's GK coach at AC Milan now!!

Hopefully on an increased wage of 50k per week, he has earned it.

Roberts was not the best keeper that we have had but better than our current No 1.....and not as bad as many think - he played for Wales!!!

As for his coaching - a good keeper does not mean that he will be a good coach, likewise a poor keeper does not mean that he will make a poor coach.

Coaching & Management is a lot lot different than playing.

It's certainly catchier than Begovic on crosses.

Honestly, that Begovic mistake may very well be the thing that gets us relegated.

You get relegated for being shìt consistently over a season. Which we have been.

The fact that Begovic is shìt has contributed to the fact we've been shìt but that one mistake isn't the reason we are where we are.

Honestly that’s a load of rubbish.

Terrible error to be sure but our total failure in attack over the last three games is the reason we are now right back in the relegation mire.

Genuine question - why do you defend him so much??? For a player with so much experience, he is unbelievably poor?

What is he adding today? Saved nothing. Incredibly slow off his line for the second - a keeper who uses his feet is out to clear that. Down in instalments for the third. Can't kick it very well. Really don’t see an issue with playing Walsh tbh.

Everybodys biggest fear to be honest that Begovic would crumble under the pressure with zero goals coming for us and teams running through us like Hull today.
Only saw the first goal and think it was a stunning top level strike rather that Begovic too far off his line . I will wait for Boston to deliver the lowlights to see the other 2.

I don’t think he’s much good, makes too many mistakes and hope to God he leaves in the summer but it’s ridiculous the amount of posts that seem to blame him and that one mistake as being the main reason we are not safe from relegation. The main issue is at the other end of the pitch as we don’t score goals.

Same with Dykes who seems to get most of the blame for our lack of goals when ALL of our ‘attacking’ players are equally culpable.

The back four and Field can say they have performed well over the last few months: none of the others can and that is why we are now right back in it.

Fair enough although keepers always get a fair bit of flak because their mistakes often lead to goals.

For me, he is up there with the worst keepers we've had in the last 40 years and is a huge part of the why we are where we are in the table. However, the same could be said of half of the squad.
