Joel Robles

Canuck Darryl · January 8, 2016

I'm more confident with Robles in goal than I am with Howard there. It's time to shuffle keepers. Howard can go to the MLS, sit on the bench, be a game analyst on the tube, anything he wants...but NOT our #1 keeper. It's Joel's time to show what he can do.

How old is Robles now?

One of the things I liked about DM was that whenever a non-regular performed well he kept his place until his performance slipped. I am not sure if that was always the case but it was usually.

Good management and fair and equal treatement for all.

That is one of the reasons why I wanted Robles to keep the job last season. The second reason is that Howard is pooh.

He's 25

WHY? Why is there a decision to be made on GK?

Robles was good vs City and has stated he's his 'cup keeper' (a ridiculous concept for me).

Robles should start.

^^^^^
Unless of course Howard playing tomorrow, means that Robles will take over in the league?

I'd be more confident with Stephen Hawking in goal

Just imagine Howard becoming the cup keeper and undoing Robles good work.

This Manager is starting to annoy me over this issue what power has Tim really got over him - get big Nev in as goalkeeping coach!

That's to obvious to all blues bar a very few and our faith blind manager it will cost him his job -if he persist with TH - my nephew went with a gift ticket by of chance v City on Wednesday , and came away with seeing the blues win a home game for the first time in 4 visits { as he works most weekends}
Our home record is abysmal imo all down to a bad positioning over the hill Goalkeeper - if Big Nev is pointing it out it concerns me whay our Manager is not seeing it one save at newcastle where I would expect any keeper to save that type of shot , and he is singing his praises something's seriously wrong if he puts Tim back in!
