Joel Robles

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

That's a hard rule to use though mate, effectively going to blame him every single game this season that Howard will make a mistake in with that thinking

If you go on the belief, as I do, that Howard should be dropped then that's completely reasonable

If I think he shouldn't be playing Howard and should be playing Robles, it makes him ripe for criticsm for doing the opposite surely?

I'm a coach in my current role. I have to teach people how to deal with customer requests. If someone is using the wrong system for their job, and making mistakes a consequence, I will go over and point out the correct system to use. If they then go on to use the wrong system again, should I ignore it and let them get on with it or should I go over and tell them to use the correct one again?

You seem to think that if he keeps playing Howard and Howard keeps messing things up, he should be allowed to keep picking Howard with no comment whatsover, even though his picking Howard is what's causing things to get messed up in the first place

That's an exceedingly strange attitude to have IMO

Just wondering why Martinez brought Joel over from Wigan. Did he see a player in there or did he just bring him because he knew he would sit on the bench quietly and not be knocking on his office door every week. Can't believe the lad hasn't taken him to one side and asked Martinez what the hell is going on.

Just heard on Talksport Martinez has said Howard starts on Wednesday and Joel plays the FA cup game instead.

I would retire if i were joel.

Still can't help but think that fans' goalkeeper anger would just be deflected to Robles if he was our consistent starter. We need a class keeper. Howard is just Martinez's best of a bad pair.

Yet to be convinced, like most of us. I think he's pretty dire myself.

Well it seems to be the manager who has signed him twice, sees him every day in training thinks not.

Come next season, we will have a new keeper in nets and it won't be Robles that's for sure.
