Is it time for us to replace Howard?

[Verbal Kint]

Is this a new thread?? Awful awful dire

 

[Chang Elephant]

If we can get anything off the MLS, now is the time.

 

[AlE]

We could do with a new keeper anyway tbh, given Howard's age and Joel's crapness. Oh, and Howard's crapness too.

 

[Abraders]

It is time to move on if we can

 

[kevdotbadger]

Beaten near post in that situation is not good enough for any PL keeper.

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

He's undropable ffs.

Joel should be given a chance.

 

[bilyaletdinov_]

Get him to the MLS as soon as possible please

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Beaten near post in that situation is not good enough for any PL keeper.

Yeah this.

People do often misuse the "keepers shouldnt be beat at the near post" line, applying it to all goals that go the side of which the keeper is nearest to the post, but often its the quality of the shot and the fact the striker is fairly central anyway which means its wrongly used.

But not tonight. It didn't look to go through his legs which would have been unfortuante but between his left foot and post.

A decent keeper shouldn't let them in like that.

If its a one off you say ok fair enough he made a mistake. But when you're saying he made a mistake almost every week something needs to be done.

I'm sure someone of a certain US state will defend him by talking about all the other players who are gash and making mistakes as if that somehow deflects blame away from Howards mistakes.

 

[maccavennie]

He's a great keeper in form. He's not in form and has been awful for the majority of the season. It's got to the point now where Martinez has to shoulder the blame for sticking by him for a few games top many.

 

[sageyefc]

FFS its time Joel gets a proper run of games, a chance to settle down and get a bit of confidence see what he can do

I actually like Tim, he loves our club and has been a great servant but hes cost us so many points this season its beyond ridiculous

 

[ijjysmith]

@EFCStats: 1 - Hull managed 1 shot on target tonight, Howard had one shot to save in the entire game. He didn't.

 

[Elong]

It's not ideal really. I can't see us getting another keeper in though, as much as we may moan, we're stuck with him. He'll have another good performance in a game or two, and another one like this after it.

 

[blulouie]

He's undropable ffs.

Joel should be given a chance.

The Spanish Brad Jones ...no thanks.
Part of the reason Howards so crap , the competition is.....erm ?

 

[Walken]

time for this bearded tit to do one back to that retirement home in the mls

 

[Kurt.]

He's become a joke tbh.
