Fraser has saved 15 of 37 over his career. Alex's record is 3 of 25 Interesting statistic, especially after today. How many did FF save for us out of interest. My recollection was that FF was a lot less agile than McCarthy but I was reminded the other day that he had saved one at Anfield.

tajjuk Posted 14 February, 2021 Share Posted 14 February, 2021 Thing is McCarthy is only really good at shot stopping and he's not doing that, so what else does he bring? Not very much, his distribution is poor (and often creates opportunities for the opposition or slows us down or just gives the oppo the ball back) and his communication/leadership at the back does not seem great either, he seems rather quiet for a keeper IMO. Forster on the other hand, from recent games seems rather more of a commanding presence and seems to have better distribution as well. Plus he's a giant lump who tends to make himself big so even if his shot stopping might not be up to in an form McCarthy he often just makes up for it by just getting in the way. And McCarthy is not in form, his shot stopping is not up there, McCarthy from the summer saves that shot today IMO, but I also think probably Forster in current state (certainly at peak state) does as well and even if he doesn't its more likely to hit him. Neither of them are great options, we need a better keeper, but I think of the two, I'd be inclined to give Forster the nod because he seems more back to his old confidence self and McCarthy does not seem to be confident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 14 February, 2021 Share Posted 14 February, 2021 (edited) It’s laughable the way Forster being talked up by some. All of a sudden he’s better with his feet, organises the defenders and makes saves. All this whist sat on the bench. The fact is he was complete pony before being dropped and is only at the club because nobody else wants him or thinks he earns his monster wage. We’ve got beat by 9 twice and he still can’t get a game, not because Ralph has a vendetta or because he’s clueless, he doesn’t play league games because he’s pony. As Bill Shankly once said to a reserve after witnessing a poor defeat “how bad must you be to not get in this side”. McCarthy’s detractors need to ask the same question, how bad must he be to be behind McCarthy. Edited 14 February, 2021 by Lord Duckhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 14 February, 2021 Share Posted 14 February, 2021 Fraser has taken the mantle of being a better player the longer he's out of the side. The fact is that none of our keepers are great, they are all bog average and capable of cock ups and stupid slips. We are putting more pressure on them due to the way we play (from the back) which can highlight their lack of ability sometimes. McCarthy is probably the best we have with that. Would anyone trust Fraser playing short front he back? Really? He struggles to move his feet in between his goal. This is an area that is in serious need of investment, but once again our shit show recruitment department lumbered us with another 'same' player in Angus Gunn. No different to what we had already. I really hope we've seen the last of our recruitment disasters because it's killing us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you sum up the problem nicely. I will add Forster seems to pass the easy balls but hits it out of sight if there is a whiff of danger, something McCarthy seems oblivious of. I also sense the defence has lost some confidence in McCarthy and are on edge. They seem a lot calmer with Forster. The other thing is with Forster's long kicking when danger threatens we don't get bogged down losing the ball as we did today and as he angles his long kicks we seem to get pressure on opponents wide way up the field. He has also kept three clean sheets against Liverpool, Arsenal and Wolves. I know what he was like until he injured his knee, He had a bit of a purple patch when we had a great undefeated run under Koeman. He completely lost his confidence after that. He went to Celtic and was brilliant. His one man performance against Rangers won the cup for Celtic. Give the man a go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonic Posted 14 February, 2021 Share Posted 14 February, 2021 It's time to give FF a run of league games. He's had his problems and was very poor a few years ago before he got dropped, but he's seemed solid in each of his 4 games so far this season. One thing I noticed, and others have alluded to, is confidence. McCarthy seems very nervous at the moment and it seems to make our back 4 nervous too. There were three times today I counted when he started to come for crosses and then stopped, which panicked our backline (once with Bertrand at end of 1st half) and a free kick in second half). He also didn't communicate with KWP when there was a simple header back to him in the 2nd half, instead KWP headed it out and then was immediately under pressure from a Wolves player and ended up giving away a corner. To me, it's no coincidence our four most recent solid defence displays have all been when AM hasn't been playing. Time for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee On Solent Saint Posted 14 February, 2021 Share Posted 14 February, 2021 To be honest, at the moment neither McCarthy or Forster inspire too much confidence in me. It's quite strange though that after the last 9, Gunn was immediately dropped and hardly ever seen again, yet McCarthy continues in goal. Am not saying that Forster is any better than McCarthy, but I do think he needs to be dropped and Forster given another go. The goal today was really disappointing in the fact that McCarthy just stood where he was and made no attempt to close down or spread himself in anyway. I'm no keeper, but in teams I have played in, the keeper was always told to make himself big. It doesn't matter what part of the body you save the ball with. For me, Forster just seems to have a bigger presence between the sticks. He has done nothing wrong in the games he has played in this season.

Toussaint Posted 15 February, 2021 Share Posted 15 February, 2021 McCarthy has pulled off some worldies this season, he is at least part of the reason we had our good run. Yes he's made two balls ups playing out of defense that's lead to two goals, and the goals have started pouring in, but that's in a side where chaos has resumed for a variety of well known reasons. He was being talked about in terms of an England call up before we went on this run. Forster has had almost nothing to do in the cup run which has seen us face a succession of weakened teams who have posed little threat. I don't think Forster is the answer to anything, he is back up, that's all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwertyell Posted 15 February, 2021 Share Posted 15 February, 2021 (edited) Forster hasn't become better in absentia. He's still incredibly limited and technically flawed. But he has strung together a whole 4 competent games - which at this moment in time is in stark contrast to McCarthy, who has conceded 20 goals from the last 37 shots he's faced. It may make no difference whatsoever to change keepers, but as our current number one has the saves-to-shots ratio you might expect of a wheelie bin, how much can it hurt to try something else?

The Curse of St Mary's Posted 21 February, 2021 Share Posted 21 February, 2021 McCarthy has saved 3/27 pens on target (11%) in his career. Forster 39%. Davis 26%. Keeper isn't expected to save a well hit penalty that's placed in the corner but that said no many pens are not hit that well and many nowhere near the corner. Mounts pen wasnt great but didn't need to be as McCarthy never looks capable of saving one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodles34 Posted 2 March, 2021 Share Posted 2 March, 2021 General view that he played alright last night? I wasn’t overly convinced for the first goal, just left standing. I think he was left flapping at the disallowed goal and there was a moment in the second half whereby he looked all over the place. of course, with more game time, and I imagine he’s here for a while now, he will get more match fit.

Wade Garrett Posted 2 March, 2021 Share Posted 2 March, 2021 Played ok last night. Decent off his line, and made a superb save low to his left, albeit being offside. He was made to look a bit foolish dealing with a high ball in his 6 yard box, but replays show he was clearly fouled by Calvert-Lewin. One major plus was that you could clearly hear him talking. Something that isn’t in McCarthy’s game. Did nothing to deserve being dropped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
