Can we play 2 keepers?

[Arabs4ever]

Coming up for thirty years (26th Dec 1992) since our last win at that ground. If Brian Graham had only scored that sitter that record could have been history. As it is, it is up to the players on Saturday to win the game and break the record.............

Oh don't start on the keepers ffs.

I saw dozens of goals going in last nite in Europe that I knew wouldn't have gone down well with the Tannadice Tormentors had it been either of our two goalies conceding.

I fear diving horizontally from the right hand post to the postage stamp corner and miraculously palming the ball and grazing the woodwork as it went out for a corner will lead to 'he should have parried it round the post, it was nearly an own goal' criticisms.

Please back the goalies, they thrive on confidence & please remember what you said about Siegrist till he settled. Cheap jibes all the time.

Way over dramatic about the keepers. People are just saying what they see and i would like to see a proper counter argument to point out what we are missing to say they will improve?

Siegrist is hardly a shining example to compare the current pair to! The lad never got a chance to start with, but when he did, he improved week on week.

Eriksson is the lesser of the 2 evils for me, Edwards and Graham need to be in the 3 with either from Smith/McMann in between them. In midfield, i would keep Levitt away from this one as i think his head is elsewhere a few weeks too early. Behich, Sibbald and McGrath kinda pick themselves just now, but i would add in Harkes as he seems to lift his game against Ceptic.

Time though to pucker up buttercups as we are about to be rammed again!

[ARAbCHNID]

Siegrist improved.
Eriksson has played 11 games, Birighitti 6.
How many games did Siegrist get before 'fans' stopped howling at him?
'He never got a chance to start with'. Is this the 'fans' now denying Eriksson or Birighitti a chance?
We're not learning.

Think we would do well to judge the keepers when the team is playing more consistently well and the defence is not lacking so much confidence. I appreciate confidence can be impacted on by the goalie behind but am not convinced that is the case currently.

I am the biggest advocate of a back 3 normally, but our weakness with crosses and their good wingers would favour a back 4 for this weekend at least.

Goalie
Smith/Freeman Edwards Graham McMann
Sibbald Harkes
Middleton McGrath Behich
Fletcher

Harkes is obviously a controversial shout, but his mobility could be useful.

Going to be extremely tough regardless of what team we go with. Have no expectations I'm afraid

[TerryTheTerror]

Got to be Ericsson. In his games so far he's had 'odd' moments without any of them being bad enough to cause a goal. Birighitti on the other hand...

keepers are ****e, cant defend that fact, thats not an opinion either its a well know fact we're struggling with keepers and will be our downfall if not rectified soon

I actually think Ericsson is getting better each game. Birighitti is just a bombscare so far though. ☹️
