Does anyone else agree with me when I say that Tidman's inexperience will cost us more points than his shot-stopping will gain this season? He flaps at crosses, races out of his net and doesn't command the defence like Pressman.
I know Pressman's looking slightly slower this season but at the end of the day, the defence seem lost without him behind them. He is a commanding figure in the penalty area, his decision making is top-notch, and I still didn't think his shot-stopping looked OK against Newcastle. I also feel more confident in his ability to kick the ball when necessary.
Please someone back me up and tell me how Turner, as an ex-goalkeeper himself, can still see the point in keeping the Scandinavian youngster on the pitch instead of putting on a seasoned veteran like Pressman.
I didn't manage to get tickets for the game against Wycombe on TV tonight otherwise I would be going instead of watching the game on Sky, and having to listen to Camara the Blade put us down all evening. Oh well, we'll live.
[Editted 8/09/03 7:55pm] See, I told you so! The defence were much more confident with Pressman behind them and I thought he played well. So there.
