Superhursty7 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Lot of buzz about young Ollie Ecrepont I'm sure next season will be far to soon for him being the first choice but he's a shout for being cup/second choice very soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just me, or does Ecrepont look really short for a goalkeeper? You know what it’s like nowadays, if a keeper isn’t 6 foot 4 at least, the big teams just aren’t interested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albinson isn’t huge either but I think Ecrepont could do with bulking up a bit. Doubt he’s going to have a growth spurt now though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to fill out a bit he still looks like a wee boy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) 43 minutes ago, No_Problemo said: He isn’t being coached to not attempt to save things with his hands though, so I can’t see how that variable changing matters… If you could see his style of goalkeeping noticeable changing fair enough, but not when he is just making basic errors. If that's your argument, take it to the extreme and do we need a coaching team then? Lots of variables affect high performance. It could be something going on in his personal life. It could be he doesn't like the coaching. It could be he's just having a sticky patch. I wouldn't rule anything in or out. Proclaiming it's nothing to do with coaching is a weird one for me, it could well be. It's all speculation at the end of the day. Moreover, Albinson isn't the biggest issue in this team. The defence remains porous. Albinson came to the rescue in the first half and has been doing that for far too long.

If you don’t have the wing span of an albatross by your 18th birthday, the top clubs lose interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I often see Albinson in Home Range on a Sunday i'll be sure to ask him what's going on if I see him there today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Really wish this league would expand. Getting bored of being around mid table and being the same amount of points off bottom as we are a playoff spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Talking about a 16 year old boy not being tall or bulky enough yet might be a new low point for the thread. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sensible thing to do with backroom staff would be to have them on the same contract length as the manager. Hopefully it's the summer for everyone and Brown can then keep who he wants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibuya Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I think Brown will certainly look to replace a few of the hingers on come the summer. We need to wait and see what division we're going to be in first though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
