Verrips

[Yogi]

It was just the point being mentioned that Rammers wasn't in the right frame of mind by Jokanovic. He's still our player. It wasn't mentioned he was left out to avoid injury etc it was stated Aaron didn't feel in the right mind to play.

He’s gone by all accounts fee agreed players who have a fee agreed for them don’t play.

 

[Champagneblade]

You’re assuming he was ‘thrown in at the last minute’. You’ve no idea when he was told he’d be playing. Either way that is irrelevant, a good player is capable of handling that situation.

But neither do you. It's just one of the possibilities which may have made his preparation far from ideal for his English league debut.

I agree he could have thrived on it and been man of the match and good players handle these situations. There said, Henderson was excellent but how did he handle the Leeds and the Liverpool games?

Verrips may well go on and do an exceptional job for us for all we know. Though I admit the evidence so far isn't compelling!

 

[ATL Recs]

Because one game?

How many bad games did Ramsdale have for us?

All due respect that wasnt bad last night it was inept
Though I feel for him as he had little protection
He was at fault with all the goals his distribution with hands and feet not good
League 1 at best on that showing

You are correct, I don’t. Hence why I’m not really suggesting either way and (strangely) trying to blame Ramsdale in the process.

I don't disagree with that, however it is one game.

 

[Badger Blade]

Hopefully that's as bad as it gets for him but the early signs aren't great and its not like we have any able back up either unless Robin Olsen turns up.

 

[Bladesman]

In his defence, his performance looked like a keeper who had been thrown into the side at the last minute.

Verrips needs to communicate better with his defenders. That said the sooner we get a settled back 4 or 5 or whatever Slav is going with the better.

Genuine question how many do people think we’d have lost by with Rammers in the net? How big a difference would he have made? This is not a defence of Verrips in any way I’m just curious what people think because there was much more than the keeper wrong with that and as we know crosses aren’t Aaron’s greatest strength either

Honestly believe Rammers saves the first and third goal, and doesn't make a pig's ear of the second.

Rewatched the highlights of us against chelsea away last season, with ramsdale it would likely still have been 3-0. Quite worrying we’ve gone from getting thrashed by chelsea to getting thrashed by west brom in the space of a year

Not great mate

 

[coolasanidiot]

His starting position for the long throws was crazy- he joined in the melee therefore couldn't jump-wtf?

Basics should have told him to stay on the line- if he then adjudged the flight to be catchable/ punchable 3 steps and attack, if he adjudged the flight not gettable stay on line and pick up the pieces.

Regardless of thrown in or not- the first flight was a total disaster. The only saving grace as was commentated at 4 I thought this was going 7 so in the end in a way 4 was good.

Wouldn't have fucked up the second goal. We still would have been handily beaten, when the other 10 are playing like twats, the keeper isn't going to make a huge difference unless he's world class/Stretch Armstrong.

What does this lad need to do to get a game, if Ramsdale was an outfield player he’d have been dropped months ago....Rammers is what chocolate is to being a fire guard...useless. Worst 1st choice keeper we’ve had..that’s including Simonsen.

Give Verrips a go in the cup games at the very least.

This aged well

Sheffield United Football Club in it's entirety has aged like milk, so you've got to cut him some slack.

You reckon?

There's a quotation along the lines of....." A prophet is without honour in his own land.."
Unfortunately some quotes do come back to haunt us.

Judging by last nights performance, I bet when he has a rummage in his pants he actually misses his clockweights.

So come on, own up. Who updated his wiki page?
