romavillan Posted December 16, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 16, 2018 Agree, if he says the first one it's a total worldy. He was very good when under pressure with his feet, he works well with Axel in tight spaces when the press is on. That's where a lot of our attacks will come from, being pressed there leaves gaps behind the players pressing. Also agree he has no command of his area in the air and makes some terrible decisions about coming for crosses or out with his feet. Young though so I'd expect that part of his game to improve, stuff like Forest's last goal was horrendous and something you never want to see from a keeper. He isn't the root of all evil though ay.

abdulaziz1 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Had a good game yesterday. He’s a good shot stopper. His worst side is commanding his area and being nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 One of his good games yesterday. Therefore I'm expecting he'll be a disaster next week against Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 He had a load of shots literally right at him.and caught them. He was as you'd expect a professional keeper to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 16, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 16, 2018 Yeah let’s not start pretending that a game where he DOESN’T drop a clanger is automatically a good game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Some people seem to be going around in circles so let me help you out, he's shit, in fact, worst than shit, he has cost us lots of points so far this season and cannot do the very basics when it comes to commanding his area and claiming crosses, he also has a penchant for letting in very saveable soft goals, i.e. shots from range that he has time to see/ are right next to him and shots at his near post. The sooner this utter clown is replaced the better. Edited December 16, 2018 by Dr_Pangloss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) That just sums up how low my expectations are of him that I think yesterday was a good game Edited December 16, 2018 by Farlz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed he stopped couple of shots, its not because he didn’t drop a clanger. I’m not saying he’s a good keeper though, he has a lot to prove, had many bad performances. Although he had couple of great saves this season which indicates that he’s a good shot stopper. But those easy gift and commanding his area was always questionable.

You need to be so much more than that to be a good keeper. And Nyland is pretty shit at most of it. He did nothing wrong yesterday. But it was a run of the mill performance. He did what he had to do but let's not pretend it was a really good performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coupd be very well a confidence issue. I haven’t been able to follow Johnstone in his first season as most of games weren’t shown. But as I read he did have a bad start with us, yet we’re all gutted he left after what we saw last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you offered me a proven keeper I won’t say no at all. Its just that we’re a bit happy that he’s somehow having a better games. Although he has a lot to improve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Let’s just not beat around the bush here. He isn’t good enough and (to put this constant age point to bed) he never will be good enough. He needs to be replaced in January and sold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnkarl Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 The people complaining about that first goal need to put on glasses. Unless the keeper is lucky to be standing in the exact spot where the shot goes in there's no way he's saving that. I don't get all this moaning about things that aren't even an issue. Sure, he's not been great. Neither has most of our fan base towards him when he's got defenders ahead of him making idiotic mistakes. If I was a winger I'd love playing against our team because we've got two backs who defend with no concern about what's going on behind them or covering their man in dead ball situations. Hutton can fall over on top of the ball, leave it to the opposition and essentially kick it into goal and it'd still be Nyland's fault. Blinkered much?

But what happens on VT when a keeper falls out of favour is people find ways to blame every single goal on him. Nyland isn't good enough, but there wasn't much more he could do on Saturday.
