    I’ll judge him at the end of the season but this one’s shaping up to be a contender isn’t he?

    It’s dark days when you’re wanting to give Ben Killip a run of games…….

    The lad we had on loan from Arsenal...Mannoy or something....think Wenger claimed he would be an international but never said at what!

    Mannone definitely the worst. Slonina might be running him a close second though.

    Another vote for Vito Mannone. Got shudders recalling that name.

    Let’s hope it’s not the same when thinking back to Slonina in a few years.

    Terrible mistake tonight, and just when I thought he had had a few good games tbh, Clarke got a big decision here on whether he drops him or not.

    I'm throwing this out there before his name gets mentioned, I think Radlinger was a better keeper than a lot of our fans gave him credit for.

    There, I said it.

    I think we've definitely had worse keepers but this guy has/is costing us goals, so he will stand out more.

    I think he actually ended up having a good career.

    Not sure how many games he played, but I recall him only being an occasional stand-in for Arblaster. Probably wrong.

    Not that good tbh...60 odd games for Sunderland was his highest point.

    I think any keeper consistently costing goals is likely to stand out!

    As someone who has tried to play in goal myself over the years I've tried to defend Slonina as much as possible but it's becoming increasingly difficult to do so now.

    Same sort of mistake time and time again. That was coming again today as he was flapping at everything that came into the box. Never even tries to catch the ball.

    Slonina may turn out to be a good keeper - who knows - but this obsession with punching balls that could easily be caught is unforgivable. It’s unforgivable that he thinks it’s the right thing to do , and also that the coaching staff have allowed it to continue.
