Hopefully Clownshoes Clark watches some footage of Peter Schmeichel on his giant telly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 At least Parish is over average there! Should start to fire golf balls at Zanders fancy TV, see how good a goalkeeper he really is then! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 2 hours ago, Radford said: Of course, as shown by @RandomGuy. last night, we only need to concede 2 shots on target to concede with Clark in goal, so a good start would be replacing him ASAP. FWIW, and still excluding last night, the league average since 16/17 is 3.57 per goal, and Saints average (excluding Clark this season) is 3.41. Clark 1.88 this season before tonight, and was 2.65 last season. Mannus in 16/17 was conceding every 4.28, Clark has never bettered that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 (edited) It's not even the number of shots, while I know that's used to provide context and to provide some evidence... The most obvious evidence for me is the fact he's regularly gifting goals away from shots that are simple saves. Punching crosses backwards etc. It's a wee bit pathetic what hope do we have as a team if what should be a simple save consistently ends up in the net? Spends more time tweeting about Nicola Sturgeon than he does focusing on his game that's for sure.

Fife Saint Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 That floor of Zander's looks like an abattoir, hope he has underfloor heating installed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it gives off some heavy Patrick Bateman vibes, I think. Little use for a reflective floor apart from being able to see your reflection as you smash someone's skull in on the floor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, the first goal yesterday, on paper, will show Clark making a save, then conceding a high xG shot. If you hadn't watched the game, you'd say he had no chance of stopping the goal. This is wildly wrong. Wish there was a "spilled shot leading to goal" type figure tbh. Edited December 24, 2020 by RandomGuy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonksy+HisChristianParade Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Zander’s house gives me the fear. You can guarantee he’s got a crushed velvet sofa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done it time and again, parries the ball straight back or too weakly to the side to clear the goal area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon most of them are low shots? Sure someone on here had mentioned they thought a lot of his issues were he couldn't react to low shots quick enough, first goal probably a really good example of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Seen the third one again. For f**k sake. Folk suggested replace the GK coach. I of course have no idea if he's any good but he's also not a miracle worker. Lack of or poor coaching is no excuse for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear Zander was still diving for it when Hendry was getting shown the red card in the second half. And the ref thought Callum was fucking late??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 He needs to take up yoga. He's VERY susceptible to shots close to his body/where he's standing. One of the least mobile goalies I've ever seen. It always surprises me how inflexible professional athletes are, also if they can't dance they'll likely be shite with a ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t recommend it enough. He can play it on his big TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
