 I think we signed Big Aaron for a month on August 14th. Haven't heard anything about it being extended so Saturday could be his last game. |

He's very similar to Mildenhall, in the way he looks like he's about to throw it out to one of the backs, who's haring it towards the wing in order to get the quick ball, and then he changes his mind at the last moment, for no apparent reason.
Every time.
Proper tease.

When's Puddy back? Not convinced by Mildenhall if Chapman goes.

No better than Mildy in which case it's money needlessly spent
I don't see the point keeping him but then again I'm happy with Mildy and don't understand why DC wants another keeper

I think Chapman's decision making is the most worrying thing for me - yes he threw it out a couple of times yesterday but when he did it sometimes put us under more pressure. Yet he missed opportunities to start attacks with throws with less danger attached to them. It was odd. His lack of communication hindered us once or twice as well, along with letting Lines/Lockyer track back in the final few minutes when Oxford cleared into our half with nobody attacking the ball. Goalkeeper with a kick of his standard should be taking control of the situation.
I'm also in the 'just as good/bad as Mildenhall' camp, his throwing etc. is slightly better but I'm not convinced his distribution is actually worth the indecisiveness and lack of communication his play brings. Re: Puddy, I like him but when under pressure he isn't no. 1 either in my opinion. He was put in very comfortable situations last season when we were doing well and did well, but he struggled when teams competed with us.
Basically, I'd reinstate Mildenhall until another goalkeeper is found. Not sure what happened to Flahavan but clearly DC didn't rate him, I think a loan from Prem/Champ is required because their distribution will no doubt be equipped for what DC obviously wants.

Haven't man U got a surplus of goalies? #dreamon Given a choice should we be spending money on another goalie or alternatively a decent stiker, that's a good one to ponder? |
