All the goals were down to very poor defending by all four defenders and the total lack of a midfield with three bench players in there (Gosdling, Ollie Clarke and Sinclair). Kilgour is nowhere near good enough at the present time even if we were still in the Conference, I doubt McCrystal will be up to regular League 1 and the two full backs will have to up their defensive side of the game this season as will not be able to attack so much but they will not have a problem if we get the midfield and central defence right. Mildenhall and no chance with any of the goals other than a positional problem with the cross which was pure luck anyway. I would prefer to see a new keeper tp come in to push him as long term Puddy is not the answer. A keeper is most important player in a side IMO. A good investment here would be a wise move.

Speaking as a keeper, they're not. They're the last line of defence and if everyone else is doing their job shouldn't touch the ball during the match.

England lost to Iceland as a result of poor goal keeping. Basic mistakes or not anticipating, is the difference in losing or winning a game.

Own goals not counting today then, Chewy? Own goals are the fault of defenders, if defenders do their job the goalkeeper shouldn't have to do a thing. You'll never lose a match if the ball goes nowhere near the goal in a match.

Mildy does not deal with crosses. Fear at a higher level he will be exposed quite quickly. What about the defence dealing with crosses? For about the millionth time it doesnt matter if the keeper comes or not as long as the defence know what the keeper is going to do. People get too hung up on the keeper having to claim or punch everything. If the defence knows the keeper stays on his line they have to deal with it. If they know he comes the defence have to do a slightly different job and even cover the keeper in the event of a clanger Just about working as a unit. Wihout havent seen the pre-season games i dont know about the keepers general form. That said wasnt Mildy apparently s*** last summer How many times did Huth and Morgan head away crosses last season. Even I noticed it. Its organisation 😊

I guess I must be the only person on here who thinks that Puddy played excellently in both matches this week. I rate Puddy to a point but he didn't take his chance well in the really big games ie Dover and Grimsby. Mildenhall saved us points a number of times in the run in. If we replace him its got to be a good un. Not some on loan prem/championship player who played 5 games last season but a serious signing

The first defender in the team is the striker. Everyone in the team is responsible for defence not the back four plus the keeper. Dier and Alli should have stopped the shot for the second goal. It left Hart exposed. They should have scored 5.

Are you an ex-professional keeper ? I'm not but your arguments are dubious to say the least, e.g crosses where defenders are turned and facing their own goal - they desperately want their keeper to help them out (at any level !)

Kilgour has just turned 18, he's going to be a hell of a player. Worth noting his old man (Mike) played over 1,000 games at senior level all above the Western League. This doesn't guarantee anything though does it ? Will Beckham's sons ever play league football ? BTW, I hope the lad does succeed !

It is of course too simplistic to say it's balck and white. Stay on your line or come get everything but it's just to make the point people get too hung up on it. If a keeper doesn't come enough he is derided as sh*t most of the time
As long as the defence and Keeper work together and know in general what is going to happen than you are better suited to dealing with what is thrown at you.
Uncertainty at the back will be a bigger creator of goals rather than if a keeper stays or comes for a cross

Hope I am wrong but IMO, Milldy is not L1 standard.
