We've spent close to 10 million on keepers just this season, and ended up with Steer in goal. He has been solid, but I think we really should be playing Kalinic if he is seen as our long term #1. At the end of the day, all a transfer does is buy you a place in the squad, once you're there you have to work for your place in the team. Steer has done what he has had to do so Kalinic has to wait. I'd still be surprised if eventually Kalinic doesnt regain his spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 14, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 14, 2019 I don't think he's anything special, but there's no way you can blame him for their goal last night. Absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Yeah the only thing i could complain about the goal is maybe he could have moved his feet better but maybe is harsh. As others at the game said the wind was quite heavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Whether you blame him for the goal or not the important thing for me was how he recovered. It didn’t phase him at all which means he is confident. Crucial for any player but in particular a goalie. Kalinic is the better keeper but he never looked confident to me. I can see Steer staying in goal for the rest of the season. Edited March 15, 2019 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 After seeing the replays it's not his fault at all after as that was a absolute fluke. No way did he intend that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalinic and Nyland both look shaky. Steer looks more reliable. Imagine if we just recalled Steer and spent those money to get in a proper fullback.

I think Kalinic will be a far better keeper for us. But yes much better than Nyland. He's wank. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted March 17, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 17, 2019 It'll do Kalinic good to watch Steer from the bench a bit. Kalinic is definitely better in the medium term, but now Steer is at the helm. Steer didn't have much to do yesterday, but what he did, he did well. Seems our defense has faith in him, which is important too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think we should be playing whoever is in form, and that the long term number one should be decided by that rather than who we spent a load of cash on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 It's funny to me how Hause isn't exhibit A as to why deciding Kalinic is shit is overwhelmingly premature. Especially given the price, stature and "pedigree". Steer has been solid but how convenient is it to forget he hasn't had half as much to do as the other keepers. Mings, Elphick, Hause and even Jack to a certain degree have a huge part to play in Steers form, and arguably him getting a new contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Genuinely curious about this, but when was the last time he was really tested by a team? I don't recall him making a lot of big saves. That said, he's in great form 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashingqwerty Posted March 19, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 19, 2019 Is he in great form? I can't say i can think of a single save he has made that any of the other keepers we have wouldnt have made. I'd agree that he has benefitted from a general uplift in team performance as opposed to anything he himself has brought to the team. Saying that, i'd have been happy him being our number 1 this season as i think hes a decent keeper. Kalinic is better though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
