With form like today, if Stoke somehow don't want him, another Prem team will even as back up; he's playing too good for the championship right now. Can't see him coming back myself.

If he's not confident he wobbles, if he is he's great. Carson is more a 6-7/10 a game man which is generally more reliable but Grant really isn't that far behind him, if at all. Grant on form during the Mac years was excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant on form during the Mac years was excellent. If we were to play it out from the back again I'd have Grant starting every time. His ability with the ball at his feet would give him the edge. If we we're to become a solid team then Carson gets the spot for reliability alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Pleased for Grant and he was great in the first Mac season. But since then he has cost us several goals at key times that have dented our promotion hopes, letting them in in the manner I'd be disappointed a ten year old on the school team would concede. We (or rather our defence) need to have confidence and know they can rely on their keeper and for me the trust is broken. Great if he does well and we can profit on him. Much prefer Carson who's not in the habit (and it became a habit) of punching the ball into his own net. Very talented but playing for Derby he got the yips.

Did punch the ball into his own net to be saved by wieman at MK Dons last year when we were 2-1 up - small margins but not much difference.

You're right and I nearly mentioned that, but I was generalizing and happily he's not looked like doing it again. I feel Grant might easily do it in every match. My heart was aways in my mouth so I think it's inevitable our defenders would be thinking the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you are saying, that said we have seen Grant a lot more over the years so yes more mistakes, - I wouldn't mind seeing Carson not letting goals in without moving or being unable to dive low down before the ball has passed him. Plenty of things things wrong with the others but more noticeable with the keepers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be fair to Granty - he was injured in the run-in and could barely jump. Explains why in the space of 12 games he punched the ball into his own net and conceded directly from a corner twice.

Could also argue big enough to play when asked to, even though he knew he wasn't fit and couldn't probably expect to play to potential i.e. Likely to drop an odd ricket; but did so for the cause.

Others are definitely not "miles" ahead of Grant, or Carson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foster has retired and considering there are 3 keepers in the England squad he only really has Pickford and Heaton ahead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 maybe he meant Forster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgford Ram Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Maybe if Grant keeps his place and continues impressing we can get Butland on loan again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninos Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 So we are standing by the pitch at Burton next to the cool ex DLF Burton steward with the Rams tat on his neck - and we are watching the goalie warmup with Lee G just an arms length from us. He's sending accurate long balls in to Carson. Was dying to ask him, "Lee, how much long are you going to put up with being number 2 here". Turned to my mate and said, he can't be doing this, he needs to get out of here for his own careers sake. He agreed. Sure enough and a month later and he's playing v Pogba and zlatan at old Trafford - it's amazing how players fortunes can change instantly. All of a sudden, with one fantastic center stage performance, the most famous DCFC player worldwide is our backup goalkeeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
