The criticism of Muller on here...

I haven't been to Swansea or the Wolves game obviously, but every time I hear coverage of the game from outside of this message board, its "your goalkeeper was outstanding", or "yet another great save by Heinz Muller".

 

think we would be f@@ked without him

 

Anti-German sentiment, I feel.

 

From the Radio Sheffield report

It sounds like he wasn't too clever for either of their goals.

Just saying like.

 

Yeah it would seem he was at fault for both the Wolves goals today. Not the same keeper since coming back from his injury. That's clear.

 

RE: From the Radio Sheffield report

From the reports I've heard of the swansea and wolves games, he has made a string of saves in each. He's forced to concede a few; there's too much happening in front of him.

 

Eight Games Without Keeping A Clean Sheet

You have to go back to Doncaster game.

 

I have said it consistanly

overrated flapper.



Just my opinion .

 

Not a patch on Nick Colgan or Dave Watson.

I paid you a compliment last night, mate. Don't worry, I won't make it a habit!

 

It's an 'in joke' between Mark & myself

My honest opinion is that Muller is the best goalkeeper I've seen playing for us in the 40 years I've been going down to Oakwell. Both Colgan & Watson were the ultimate in 'flappers'. The only reasons Watson didn't get more abuse for his feeble attempts at claiming crosses is because he was a local lad and he was our goalkeeper at the most succesful time in our club's history. A cruel. career ending injury simply enhanced his perceived ability.

RE: Eight Games Without Keeping A Clean Sheet

Too overworked that's why. Too much happening in front of him and not enough at the other end of the pitch. Will be an awsome keeper for a decent club.

 

no comment.........

from BBC</p>

Kevin Foley and Andy Keogh missed early chances before Bobby Hassell diverted the ball into his net <font color="#ff0000" size="3">after Barnsley goalkeeper Heinz Muller missed a cross. </font></p>

 

With a lesser goalkeeper against Burnley..

That 3-0 lead would have quickly become a 6-3 defeat. He is given far too much to do in nigh-on every game.

 

RE: no comment.........

Need I say any more. (chinny) (chinny)

 

At fault for both goals, sorry, but that's not good enough

Luke Steele in for me.

 

there's about as much chance of odejayi getting 4 in one match

as there is Davey dropping Muller. Most of the time Steele doesn't even make the bench (its far more important to fill it with strikers that never come on)

 

I'm probably Muller's biggest fan, but

It's difficult to justify dropping Steele earlier on in the season when his form was superior to Heinz's current performances. There's no doubt Muller's an outstanding goalkeeper, but he's nowhere near the high standards he's capable of. Also, no player should ever be guaranteed a place in the starting line up, irrespective of ability. I once read on here that Simon Davey should play his best players all the time, no matter what. In my opinion, that would be wrong, unprofessional and is highly unlikely to convince the likes of Steele to remain at the club.

 

RE: I'm probably Muller's biggest fan, but

If Muller was sat on the bench there would be fewer scouts watching him and no talk of £2-2.5M moves. I'm not saying he still wouldn't go somewhere but it would be for much less. I have always been of the opinion that you can pick up a decent keeper cheaper than any other position. If we can get silly money a la Flinders and strengthen a couple of other positions because of that, it could be a massive turning point in the season.

 

did i read that wrong or did you say we should play a keeper

who is costing us points so that we get some money for him at some point in the future?
