Keepers in championship (5 Viewers)

[Sky Blue Pete]

Some terrible keeping in highlights on tv

Wilson looking better and better

[Harry_Walker]

Wilson with the best clean sheet % in the division, only Woodman (Preston) has kept more but he has also done that in more game

 

[alexccfc99]

Wilson is currently the second best keeper in the league statistically

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Super Ben Wilson in gooall. I never understood the negativity towards him, the only thing about him that warrants it is the distribution, but who gives a fuck when he is keeping clean sheets

 

[CDK]

Erratic distribution at times only weakness right now.

Another who is P
proving a lot on here wrong, kicking could be better but he’s a safe pair of hands and our defence seem confident with him.

 

[shmmeee]

He’s cut out the madness, and I love his shithousing TBH. He can stay for now, I have questions whether we can leave him less protected.

When I went to school (admittedly a long time ago) 60% was better than 58.8%

 

[PVA]

He's done well and fully deserves the shirt but I really can't remember him having to make a save of note for 3 or 4 games!

 

[Calista]

I was on here praising him a few weeks ago, and I still don't think he deserved the criticism he has had during his time at CCFC. But he really isn't an elite keeper in this league. During this recent run of excellent clean sheets, he's been superbly protected by the defensive formation. He also seems to have a weird knack of getting strikers to hit the ball straight at him or just wide! If he gets a few smashed past him, I'm sure there will be another negative over- reaction. btw funnily enough, I like some of his distribution.

 

[fatso]

He has the best % clean sheets in the championship. The guy absolutely deserves the shirt, he is our no1 regardless of what the bedwetters say, he's set the record for clean sheets, no one can say he hasn't earnt his place.

 

[JAM See]

That could be because he's organising his defence so well.

Keepers are like referees, the less you notice them, the better they're doing.

 

[SBAndy]

He’s done well so far this season. Just remember, though, that for Bristol City’s 3rd in the League Cup he’d realised he had left the radio on in the car. Never minded him as a #2 but can’t be #1 on a long term basis.

Its not even erratic, even when he is under no pressure he is kicking the ball straight into touch but credit where its due with his contribution to clean sheets

Are you talking about Oggy or Wilson lmao

About as misleading as Save % as a statistic for judging a keeper though.

He’s played 7 games less than the guy in 1st place though, harder to keep a clean sheet percentage over more matches

Makes much more sense than number of clean sheets

 

[pusbccfc]

His distribution is so bad though. It's not even a one off, he genuinely cannot pick someone out.

 

[Skybluedownunder]

It’s like saying a striker who’s played 5 games and scored 4 is better than a striker that’s played 20 and scored 15

You can’t predict over a longer duration of matches the player playing less games is going to deliver in comparison to somebody who has

What’s better? 75% or 80%?

I think Oggys retired

So what was his clean sheet % 6 games ago?

 

[CDK]

The one thing about ben now he is performing better than Moore who has been shit this season.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

You’re all missing the point. There was some awful keeping in the championship today on the highlights. Truly horrific attempts at saving shots

 

[Evo1883]

Let's be honest

Wilson has not had an awful lot to do has he

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Let's be honest

Wilson has not had an awful lot to do has he

He’s still made some good saves when required

 

[Frostie]

Ignore my concerns, the main man has spoken...

Robins was fuming at him just before the final whistle for this distribution.

I thought he picked up an injury?

That's because we got rid of Hyam, and brought in some decent defenders

Says it all

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Fair play to him, took his opportunity and proving me wrong over the last couple of games.

It is worth noting though Reice Charles Cooks trajectory after breaking clean sheet records!

My concern is that these records come about because the team plays more defensively and when you need to take the shackles off the keepers weaknesses are exposed.

To me it’s coming from getting the rub of the green from the woodwork while also working bloody hard to protect the goalkeeper. They’re busting a gut for each other to keep the goal out of trouble and so really the whole team should be getting credit for it rather than just Wilson. Who has done what he’s needed to do just fine, except kick with vague accuracy
