Does anyone know how long he is out for? Dont get me wrong I dont want any of our players to be injured but I do have a slight worry that when he is fit he may be put back into the starting line-up rather than on the bench I havent heard anything about when he is likely to be back
I don’t think we’ll see him again tbh. I actually think he’s the better of the two keepers - but it’s in different areas of play, not the same. Collins is still very good. His 1 year contract expires soon, and The project of getting Collins to learn the ‘sweeper keeper’ role off him is complete. Rads is probably back home with wife and kids rehabilitating. Which is fair enough - I think that was part of his contract. He’s a good keeper, but like Collins, any keeper would have struggled in front of our back 4!
I suspect he'll go straight back into being first choice when fit which is bizarre if you ask me. We've had the likes of Thiam and Cavare shunned when arguably we could've benefitted from them at times, yet Radlinger will come back into the fold despite the fact he will be leaving in the summer. Collins is good enough and Walton is decent as backup. Doesn't make sense to play him if we're looking to the future.
Back for Stoke Luton and Wigan - 3 must win games and games where clean sheets are vital - Hopefully Collins has played well enough before it to make Struber have to keep him in the nets - maybe let Ritzmaier play the last home game once we are safe to say farewell?
Don’t wish the fella any harm but honestly hope he doesn’t play for us again. Very poor keeper and not a patch of Brad Collins for me. Without his injury I doubt we’d have had this upturn in form.
Getting my German speaking players whos names start with R mixed up I meant Radlinger of course but my Brain threw a bit of a glitch
Yes I saw him make a save once - a home game down to his left - cant remember who it was against though
I hope he's fully fit but stays away from our starting line up. But if him being fit means he goes straight back in then unfortunately I can't wish him a speedy recovery back to full fitness.
Huddersfield at home 2nd half shortly after they scored went out for a corner. Collins by far the better keeper and will have a solid career. There’s a reason Radlinger is 27 and never held downs 1st team spot.
He’s definitely in the country, his wife’s always posting on Instagram & is back in Headingly, Leeds. I did find it weird that they were sightseeing in London on the same day we won at Fulham but didn’t go to the match
