Danny Ward

[Fox92]

We all knew Ward is good at saving penalties anyway. It's happened here before (think we beat Wolves) and it happened when he was at Huddersfield.

Just a thought, maybe he was a £12m keeper that was so badly coached by Stowell that he regressed to the level we all saw. 
 

Under new coaches, both last season and this, he’s inspired, fitter, has new tactical ideas, and has basically improved?? 
 

We’ve all seen (probably currently) how badly an outfield player looks when trying to implement a manager’s plan they don’t connect with. For a GK it’s a direct 1-1 relationship with the GK coach, so if they don’t fit each other then the results would be amplified more than for an outfield player??

You saw it with Vestergaard.

 

The Danny Ward redemption curve started last night

He just never got a sniff because Kasper played basically every single game during his time here, meanwhile he's sitting on a bench doing **** all - you don't play games, you lose that match sharpness. He went from not playing regular football for a couple of years to being expected to get up to speed over a summer break. Nonsense decision not to replace Kasper after he went.

Honestly, I think there's quite a degree of confidence issue here. Came in cold, got off to a bad start.

 

When confidence goes you start forcing the issues, trying too hard, going for crosses you ought to leave, attempting to pull off the unlikely spectacular to redeem yourself.

 

I'm not saying he's a world class keeper, but 22-23 was one long rabbit hole for him.

Doesn't take into account Iversen looking much better when he was given a chance.

If Ward sees a minute in the league I'm not going. I can't process that we'd actually be that insane.

[Mon.is.a.god]

Ward has definitely chucked a week’s wages to the Walsall pen takers last night. 
 

“Hit them all into the bottom right hand corner at a perfect diving height with no pace please”

 

The guy is utter utter garbage. Let’s not forget, this is the guy that consistently dived out the way of every shot he faced in the 22-23 season whilst leaving the widest gap possible.

 

I’m still convinced he was involved in match fixing that season.

Its insane that we got relegated, drop him to fourth choice and now we are one injury/Cooper madness away from having him as number 1.

Crikey. Not like the club to miss an opportunity or anything…

At least someone is on top of his lob.
