Agreed. I break out into a cold sweat each time we concede a corner.

Come on Grendel he is one man everyone has to do their bit it is a team game not a singles match.That’s nothing to do with the goalkeeper commanding his area?

It is my opinion nothing else, if you believe every loss is down to him fair enough.
from what I’ve read Robins has a lot of faith in Addai, so I can see him knocking on the first team door soon, but Burge will do me for now.
Imo O’Brien needs to go.
Exactly. I think MR has strengthened the squad in all but 2 or possibly 3 areas:-
CD - existing players are good enough
GK - I believe we need a better goalie if we are to challenge for promotion
Strikers - jury is out
That’s what I mean, get rid in January.Unless we pay him off we're stuck with him until January. We should've sorted the GK situation in the summer. Every fan knew that despite being in the team of the year, Burge would still be a question mark in goal. However, it's not like MR doesn't know this I'm sure the fans aren't thinking something he isn't. But during the Jan window this MUST be our No.1. priority assuming there are no long term casualties to replace.
I blame Bakayoko
The goal today was Sterling's fault.
Burge's positioning for their goal was bazaar. He wasn't even close. It was almost as if his ability to judge the landing point of a curved ball - i.e. a corner - is completely wonky.
That said I thought the goalkeeping in Div 2 was pretty bad. Judging by Oxford and Gillingham Div 1 is little better so Burge would appear to be about par for the division. He is not the weakest link in the team either. The weakest links remain right back and target man striker - JCH and Grimmer.
..or a member of Dollar.Bazaar sounds like a Dutch number 10

Offside?I blame Bakayoko
People in glass houses ….Statements where 'of' have been used instead of 'have' have to be disregarded.
I agree that Burge didn’t do particularly well for their goal, seemed more intent on their man rather than his position and watching where the ball was actually going. I disagree with you on his save low to his right, it wasn’t routine, he was down sharply, the forward must have been very close to him. On balance I think he’s doing well for us.I don’t believe that but I do think Willis and Hyam are our best players - the corner last week was due to Andreu dozing off - this week sterling may have lost his man but why on Earth was Burge even starting on the far post? It’s very odd positioning
How many strikers do we need? We’ve already spent money on Chaplin, Bakayoko and Hiwula to improve the striking departmentSolid midfielder & a target man are priority for me tbh in Jan.
Already recruited. The problem is too many changes, performances should improve considerably in the next few weeks.Solid midfielder & a target man are priority for me tbh in Jan.
A target man to play with Chaplin none of the above are that.How many strikers do we need? We’ve already spent money on Chaplin, Bakayoko and Hiwula to improve the striking department

Maybe Robins doesn’t think a ‘target man’ is necessary for the way he wants to play then if he’s had months to recruit one and the strikers he has signed are not in that mould?
We’re also playing with one striker
Max hasn't been injured for months.
