Grbic

[andy m]

He's shit but I don't get all the grief he gets. Trusty is far worse and costs us more goals but gets very little criticism.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

His kicking today was a throwback to before keepers realised they had feet too.

He can't be 1st choice next year.

 

[FleaPitBlade]

I have yet to see him do ANYTHING that couldn't have been done by one of our spare midfielders playing in net.

Anyone seen his interview on sky sports this morning, hoping to make the national team

For which sport ??

 

[ancientblade]

i dont think his signing was wilders decision and still think he will be moved on this summer hes not good enough for the premier league or championship

 

[TJ blade]

Last call... he's fucking useless, and wouldn't get a game on our local park, fuck off who gave the goahead to sign him!!

Trusty would have been bombed agers ago if Egan was fit. The signing of Trusty is just another sign of how bad our recruitment was in the summer

Don’t know how accurate this is but I’m sure I read somewhere it was Matt Dukes recommendation?

He’s rubbish but wasn’t his fault today.

Yep, watched highlights, could do nothing about either goal, did well enough to close down Maupay (?) after that misplaced pass, although I half wonder if he couldn't have committed a touch more and claimed/cleared it, probably the most one footed player I've seen since Sterling for sure and his distribution was poor, but today isn't a day for continuing to throw him under the bus

 

[Agreasychipbutty]

The 2nd there was nothing he could do but the OG I thought he could have saved or at least got closer to, I know it was a deflection but he had a clear view of it and plenty of time to react. I think the criticisms of him even on goals that aren't "his fault" comes from how pathetic his dives are or how quickly he seems to drop to his knees and just accept that a shot is going in. Of all these goals that aren't directly his mistakes he shouldn't be saving all of them but he should be saving some of them and at least looking close to saving them. All that on top of another game of poor kicking and nervy moments in the box because of his lack of presence.

Maybe there was a mix-up in translation somewhere and he thought Grbic was being compared to Buffon, when he was actually being called a buffoon?

This is it for me. People saying he's not at fault are missing the point. Professional goalkeepers are supposed to save the odd shot that's difficult to save. Premier League goalkeepers are supposed to do that fairly often. Grbic hasn't saved a single one of those in his entire time here.

Wilder could have played one of the youth team in goal (and not necessarily even a goalkeeper), and they'd have made the saves Grbic has. I'm 100% certain that Foderingham (an actual experienced professional goalkeeper) would have saved some of the more difficult ones and we'd now have several more points on the board.

This Might not have been at fault for the goals today but I do feel like every shot on target is going to be a goal. Still waiting for a top draw save Wes made every so often.

 

[sportinguista]

I'll say it again...wonder what's going on over on the Burnley forum this evening...

As I've said on other threads it's getting ridiculous now he keeps getting picked.

If it is he wants his arse kicking, it's fucking embarrassing for all concerned just watching him, especially when there's a goalkeeper on the doorstep, what looks and acts like a goaly should. And there's also that lad at Plymouth, who's 10 times better than that lump we've got between the sticks!

 

[Keen Blade]

Gbric is slow to react and slow to move for the first goal and the disallowed one - he somehow dives without stretching his shoulders or arms - he is absolutely feckin useless , he looks nothing like a goalie , he doesn't think like a goalie , he doesn't move like a goalie - he is the worst of our bad jokes of recent recruitment - if we don't ship him out we will be in the relegation zone next season - someone at the Lane has got to start taking responsibility for these shit recruits and getting shut of them , no matter the embarrassment - can't just keep on , it's like the old song about the King's Clothes - someone has to admit the bleeding obvious or we will continue to get weighed down by all these mistakes and it will sap away the already rock-bottom morale in the camp.

 

[hidesbehindapseudonym]

He's dog shit isnt he ?

 

[Higgo's Belly]

Here we go again. Let’s all slag Grbic off because he’s the current favourite target to slag off, just because some fans feel the need to permanently have a player to slag off. Let’s do it however he plays, because we’ve already decided to do it before the games even started. What about watching the game with an open mind, then deciding how he played, rather than just slagging him off, just for the sake of it.

No one takes responsibility for anything at the Lane and that comes from the top

Joke club at the moment

I've watched him every game he's played for us. I think that's enough for me to decide he's a pile of dogshit. The only keeper I can remember seeing who actually seems to shrink the more he stretches for a save.

Well thank you sir !
But it's obvious , and been said by many on here already.
As soon as the Prince revealed his desperation to leave by entertaining Mauriss & Dozy , we became a joke club and I do believe he's embarrassed to own us.
Hence the notorious press conference abdicating all responsibility and removing the board out of Sheffield.
Once that happens , you've no one at the top with skin in the game or presence at the Lane and pantomime will follow.
Transfer embargos , etc - makes last year's promotion a miracle , but let's be honest , we were never convincing were we ? And almost squandered a huge lead by losing to 4 or 5 rivals on the bounce. Then the recruitment .
And us fans can see it all coming but can't do anything.

Rest of your post, ridiculous relegation zone next season hyperbole aside, is fine, but if you are seriously saying that he should have reacted from being set for a cross coming in to then saving an inch-perfect deflection from Blaster (it went in off the far post FFS, he could try to do that deliberately 100 times and he wouldn't place it better) in the amount of time he had, then you're asking a fucking lot of him

 

[Harry's Game]

He will cost us ten places next season if he’s number one.

As I think we are at our best a 15th place team next season we could be looking at back to back relegations

 

[Bladepicker]

I remember seeing him in the warm up of the Brighton game and thinking uh oh, he looks quite cumbersome and he seems to be diving like Mark Bunn.

He's actually much worse.

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

He will cost us at least 10 points next season. Have to get another keeper in.

That's makes no sense? He's literally getting judged on the games he's played. Must've played around 10 games minimum? I've seen no improvement or slight glimmer of quality in there.

Hes just a 6ft5 slow lump. Awful recruitment.

Has he got dual citizenship with Andorra or San Marino?!
