Goalkeeper

[Wolves in Limerick]

I note that Carl's replacement did not overly impress people on Saturday. He was brought in as cover while McCarey was injured. I note McCarey made an appearance for the Under 21's last week. He may not be fully fit to come back into the first team just yet, but do posters consider him an improvement on the present custodian?

 

[Erick1011]

We can't rule TK out after one game.

 

[SouthwesternWolf]

No. Kuszczak is a much better keeper than McCarey

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

Hopefully it was just first game nerves or just a bit rusty.

 

[Dan G WWFC]

McCarey is going to get released soon. Miles off Championship standard and is massive N*b.

Worse Goalkeeping performance i've seen was him against Northampton. Followed by Damian Martinez against Reading a few years ago

 

[Summer_Wolf]

Give the bloke a chance! He's had one game and yes a couple of dodgy moments but also made some excellent saves. Just needs a couple of games to get into his rhythm, he'll be fine

 

[Perton Wolf]

McCarey is useless, don't think Kuszczak did much wrong Saturday. Certainly couldn't have saved the two goals and did make a few good saves.

Disagree.he should have done far better for the first.

And as for making good saves, all keepers should make some.


Except our opponents don't need to as we manage about two shots

 

[Taffywolf]

TK did nothing wrong Saturday, the goals were his fault.

 

[Essex Wolf]

That comment contradicts itself Taffy so not sure what you mean here?

 

[Sketchead]

This. He's a good, proven keeper and I'm sure he'll do us fine!

 

[Essex Wolf]

Starting tomorrow.

Kuszczak is a good keeper just abit rusty i guess

 

[Taffywolf]

Weren't his fault....

 

[Essex Wolf]

Weren't his fault....

Cheers Taffy, wondered if that was what you meant.

 

[NewarkWolf]

Just like ikeme shouldn't have been beat for boltons first and should've done better for their second when he got a weak hand to the ball but couldn't divert it .... But let's write Tomas off after 1 game where we were yet again useless as a team! Hmmmmmm ok guys!

 

[Surrey Wolf]

McCarey needs to go out on loan & get some games. If people are moaning about Kuszczak on Sat they should have seen McCarey at Nuneaton who did not have the greatest of games & was at fault for 1 of the goals

 

[Deleted member 4023]

TK is probably lacking a bit of confidence. He has been a very good keeper & I'm sure he'll be able to provide the required level of cover for Carl.

 

[North West Wanderer]

I rate him and was surprised he got the $$$$ he did from Sat

 

[shaygriff]

Correct. In his after match interview he said he needed that game for his confidence. I expect better things from him tomorrow.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

I thought he looked very shaky on Saturday. I feel he should have done better for the first goal, not so much because he was beaten at his near post, but because he didn't get out quickly enough to close the angles. There was a very poor clearance in the second half where he needed to put his foot through it and passed it to a Reading player on the edge of our box. I am also a bit surprised about the comments of him needing games for confidence, he is not some rookie, he's a 32 year old who has played 30 games for Man U and is a Polish International.

However I do agree that he needs to play a lot more before we can make a proper judgement.

 

[Sheriff Woody]

Can Kevin Doyle play in goal?

He needs to build up his confidence in so much as he hasn't played in matches for so long. It won't take many games before he'll show why he was a Man U and international player.

Kuszczak is the best keeper we have in my view

Based on what, clearly not Saturday?

 

[kwolf]

express & star gave him man of the match was the reporter actually at the game

 

[NewarkWolf]

He's better than ikeme. Sat he made no more errors that ikeme did verses Bolton! And he's had all season between the sticks.

 

[Wolvesfcneil]

I've seen him play often enough to know he is a good keeper we all have our own opinion

 

[Deleted member 3518]

[SouthwesternWolf]

So based on Saturday?

If we're basing our views on goalkeepers on one game then I presume we must all think Ikeme is $$$$e after his mistakes at Bolton

 

[Deleted member 3518]

Possibly so, but how many games has played for Wolves? I tend to only watch Wolves so can only base my judgement on that.

 

[Wolvesfcneil]

He has played more than one game you know obviously I've seen him playing for other clubs as I wouldn't judge a player after watching him play one game

 

[SouthwesternWolf]

Kuszczak on Saturday made two good saves. His distribution wasn't great and he might have done a bit better for the first goal but the collective four in front of him were more to blame IMO.

If I had a choice I'd play Ikeme but if someone's watched Kuszczak and feels he's better then I respect that view

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

It's not really complicated.

Based on Saturday I thought he was poor. I am surprised by people saying he did well.

Based on his career there is no reason why we should worry about him.

The save from Norwood was top quality IMO. That ball moved like a mother$$$$er.

Agreed, but with respect his career's in the past, how old is he and when did he last play regularly? Truly hope he proves to be a success, but based on Saturday a.long way to go.

He's only 32 and played pretty much all of the previous two seasons for Brighton to good reviews as I understand it, not sure why they let him go. Confident he'll be fine.


NWW
The shot did more like a sod, but I still think it was a regulation save. I thought the one low down going across him was better (looking from S5!).

Still didn't fill me with confidence though. Still happy he'll be fine.

 

[mexy]

give the bloke a chance ffs..of course hes going to be a bit nervous making his debut
he actually kept us in the game with some saves ...tk is the least of our worries at the moment

 

[RJs Tankard]

He was average - he made a few good saves, but he almost cost us a couple too.

Began running out of his box on two occasions - only to change his mind and almost got caught out.

Better opposition would have pounced on both of those opportunities.

 

[1312]

Get Jan Budtz back between the sticks! What a revelation he was.
