ceudmilefailte Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) 6 hours ago, Potted Heid said: Yes I agree. His instinctive save with his foot near the end saved Celtic from the dreaded away goal in a match where Rosenborg could easily have won one or two nil as they missed at least two other clear-cut changes in a game otherwise dominated by Celtic. Thinking back to the England game I would say Gordon had a pretty poor match, and I say that as a goalie, or ex-goalie ( like alcoholics: once one, always one). Not only was he less than commanding at Their two goals, his distribution was dreadful throughout the match. If we are not to go with Marshall or McGregor (a mistake I think), then I'm not sure if we have a good enough young keeper to blood. Play whichever one of the Big Three is in best club form, I reckon. Jordan Archer has by all accounts been outstanding for the last couple of seasons. Only worry is that the rest of the Milwall team might not be good enough for the championship Edited July 27, 2017 by ceudmilefailte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But without a decent defense the team would collaps. There was none better at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonny78 Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Not caldwell thanks very much. Mcmanus was a bit later by bout a year. Pressly and web played together all the time so that overrides any combo of the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely disagree with this gordon should have anticipated a near post shot this is why Gordon failed down south, his concentration levels simply aren't there compared to higher class keepers.
