Looks like Collins has some competition for being a shite keeper from Ward at Lesta( he cost them £12 million quid ) . Never been a decent keeper and was comical in the 0-3 home defeat today to Wolves.
A goal keeper is key part of the team and him saving bread and butter shots is all part of play. No matter how good the defence is the GK needs to save the ones where the defenders cannot a foot in.
Surely Dovin not being first choice something is going on, either bust up, or still got an injury? someone ITK got anything? @Saddlebrains ?
Is collins class in training, but cant show it on the pitch? not sure (doubtful) but surely long term collins will go, and someone else will come in as another 1st choice, or a backup to Dovin?
Robins bought Collins to be our number 1 keeper. He apparently was impressed with the Barnsley league 1 defence following their relegation.
Robins took chopping and changing to new heights and had no clue what his best 11 was.
I assume Lampard was trying to find a stable 11 after a few half decent performances and build confidence. I can understand that.
What I won't understand is if he plays Collins ever again.
He really didn't. Not sure why people keep peddling this myth. Collins was brought in as no.2, maybe even no.3 if Moore got his head straight and cost a nominal fee.
