Ben Wilson' race for the golden glove?! (21 Viewers)

[rob9872]

Could still be a tie with Horvath if Luton keep a Clean Sheet on Monday & we don't, guaranteed to at least share it though.

Even now You're still looking for angles to fail.

Such a shame all those stats you kept pushing about xg and how he had nothing to do or it was the collective defence rather than give him credit.

Desperate and again wrong.

Ha ha what!? He's had a great season! Just clean sheets aren't a great indicator of the best keeper.

He has, but early on every time I bigged him up, you shot me down as if you were a poundshop keeper coach. Just happy for him (and ALL of us I hope) to have an I told you so moment, so I'm milking it!

Take a Bow Ben Wilson, that Blackburn goal confirms him the golden glove

Fair play to him he’s improved a lot over the course of the season. Let’s not forget it’s a collective effort from the whole defence though.

Moment of silence for the Simon Moore implosion. Such a drastic downturn in confidence and form

Mentioned it elsewhere but Wilson’s comments about how he wasn’t a number 1 before because he wasn’t mentally up for it but that he’d managed to overcome it were insightful.
Both Moore and Wilson have mostly been backup keepers throughout their careers, so perhaps Moore wasn’t/isn’t able to handle the pressure.

Moore started very well and was also comfortable with his distribution. Then one or two mistakes and the self doubt was obvious which led to even worse errors.

Or defence somehow strangely.

Our player of the season gave us a big debate on if our player of the season was a striker or a midfielder. Yet our keeper/defenders have come top in the division for clean sheets before the season has ended.

Something has gone wrong. It isn't very Coventry City.

Just rmemeber not go for players so viciously next time. You tried to do it to BNC too.

I have faith you will learn from this season though

Or do, because then they improve massively…

If he does, will you come back next season please?

Depends if arteta wants me to start next year. Donkeys in high demand babyyy

TBH I had more respect for BNC before you came out as him.

Presumably confirmed that Ben is sole winner of the Golden Glove.

 

[Nick]

Yeah the club confirmed it earlier

Yes. Luton kept a clean sheet but Horvath didn't play.

Was he injured? Bit harsh to drop him.

They rested most of their team for the play-offs.

Bit harsh when he could have won that

He couldn't as Ben's was in less games. It was already his before today.

 

[Bertola]

Noticed on the highlights this morning, Robins tells him he's won it as the players are celebrating with the fans at the end of the game

Yeah, as mentioned before it still could have been shared but Horvath didn't play.

Has anyone got Wilsons XG against vs actual goals conceded? As good as he has been (I think he's now a v good champ keeper), it does seem as though he doesn't ever have a huge amount of shots against him

Does it really matter? Why look for a negative? Our player has just won the golden glove. Let's be proud and enjoy it.

He is +4.6

+0.11 per 90 mins, which puts him 6th in the championship.

Very impressive

(Simon Moore ranks 2nd worst, but from a small sample size of course).

How's it negative? I'm genuinely interested in finding out whether what I've seen marries up with the data behind it.

Commands his box a lot better, goes long more often than previous and wastes time too, all will have an affect on the amount of shots he's had to save. Can't help but love the guy, especially as he must undoubtedly pee off opposition players and fans.

Which goalkeeper had worse stats than Moore?

Harvey Isted, who only played one match for Luton.

And there was another, but I didn't include him as he only played 1 minute, conceding a goal in that time, for a figure of -46 xG per 90 (Luthra for Cardiff).

 

[SkyBlueGuy]

Soooo, do the playoffs count towards his total? Appreciate it might not count towards his EFL stats... But for the club? Two more added to the record for this season surely?

Hopefully 3 more added rather than 2

 

[Johhny Blue]

And let’s not forget he played out the last couple of minutes with a major concussion

Decent
