How the hell did we get Marshal? 16:29 - Jan 29 with 12063 viewsDylanP

Seriously, he is absolute quality. He has been brilliant since taking over between the sticks. How was he available???

What excites me about Marshall isn’t just that he’s come straight into the team and iso playing superbly, but also the influence he’ll hopefully have on Dieng and Walsh. He’s seen it all, played at the top level, seems to have exactly the right attitude: for Seny in particular, having a back-up keeper of Marshall’s quality will create serious competition for the number 1 shirt, and underline that he can’t ever afford to get complacent about continuing to progress and improve.

One grizzled old veteran, one young but relatively established starting keeper and one inexperienced prospect feels like a really good balance to have across the squad, each bringing something different and offering a reason for the other two to outdo them.

A lot of recency bias in here. Marshall has been superb for us and has shown his quality, not a surprise he's had such a good career and he remains a top level shot stopper.

But, Dieng is not only better, but he suits our game more. He is better with his feet, can play with a higher starting position and is dominant in the air. The claims he makes under pressure are superb for a keeper with his level of experience and he's destined for the PL in the next few years.

Marshall has done brilliantly and will be excellent competition/back up for Seny, certainly more than Archer, but Seny is the future He should earn his place back, but it should still his place to lose.

Marshall, am guessing is a better keeper than Archer but strange break for back up keeper sadly misses out through injury and suddenly out of nowhere a new super sub goalkeeper comes good.

As Baldrick said to Blackadder, I have a CUNNING PLAN !!!!! 🤣🤣🤣


Was thinking the same during the match, absolutely love Senny but Marshall can’t be dropped on the back of his performances ?

There used to be a widely accepted convention that players didn't lose their place in the team due to injury or international call-up. Maybe that's out of style nowadays.

An international call-up I could understand but injury? I don't remember that convention.

It'll be interesting to see what MW does but either way we'll have a decent keeper between the sticks so I'm not overly concerned.

I'm talking 50-60 years ago, but it existed. When a player was fit again he got a chance to reclaim his place. Maybe not for long, if his replacement was better, but he still got the opportunity.

On the one hand Marshall is playing well and deserves to hold on to the jersey. In addition, Dieng is on the bench for Senegal so he may lack match sharpness on his return from AFCON.

On the other hand, Marshall is 36 and on a short-term contract until the summer. Dieng is 27 and on a long-term contract. The latter is clearly our future and, moreover, a marketable asset. QPR need to be careful not to jeopardise either his confidence or potential sale value by keeping him out of the team for too long.

He played two or three matches. I doubt he'll be stale.

We have to keep playing the 'form' players

Nothing against Dieng, who is a great keeper, but Marshall is totally 'in form' at the moment.

This team now has momentum and belief.

Keep Marshall between the sticks unless his form disappears.

Seny is also on form - he didn’t concede in the Afcon games he played in. As others have said though - great problem to have and I trust MW to handle it in the right way

I'd be shocked if Seny doesn't come almost straight back in. He's our number one, and won't be punished for going to play in an international football tournament. He wasn't injured, he wasn't out of form. Marshall's done great, but he's here for a few months. Dieng is our long term keeper. It's harsh, but being a keeper is harsh because there is only one spot up for grabs. Marshall knows that better than anyone.

Bare bones.

Yeh agree with this. Marshall been good but he's just cover while Dieng is away.
He's made some great saves but I didn't see anything that warrants keeping Dieng out of the side. He just done his job. I actually thought his kicking was horrendous and he never really kept hold of the ball that well. Good shot stopper.
Edit..
Horrendous is a tad harsh tbh. A bit wayward on occasions. Lol

For me, he has let in one worldie, otherwise its clean sheets, not sure what more he could do, tbh, very surprised if Dieng starts v Boro - but we're all just guessing obviously.

I think a start v Boro might depend on when he comes back. If it's this weekend, maybe, if it's after the weekend, no, and probably not the game after either.

Bare bones.

He'll be here at the earliest on Monday. More likely Tuesday.

He'll be involved (well, on the bench) on Sunday, either the finals or the 3rd place play-off.

So Marshall still in goal vs Boro.

Always thought Marshall was one of the best Championship level keepers.
Bit better than Seny in keeping the ball out of the net which imo is the most important thing. Happy to have either in the team.

The situation reminds me of when we signed Lee Camp, he was superb and kept Chris Day out of the side when he returned from injury.

good point, forgot about 3rd place playoff! So minimum of 2 more games for Marshy, maybe 3.

Bare bones.

You have to keep playing the players who are playing well. Not just because it ain't broke, as important as that is, but because that's how you maintain morale and work ethic in the squad. We all know how competition makes players work harder and play better. If you don't play well your place in the team will be up for grabs. But it has to work the other way as well. If you play well enough you stay in the team. Otherwise players lose motivation to give their best. The way it works must be clear and fair to keep the players motivated and feeling positive. So sure, one could make a case that Seny is in general a better goalkeeper, but that doesn't outweigh the two reasons I've just given not to change the team just like that.
