Did well to keep it down to 1-0. The saves from the goalmouth scrambles, and the one with his foot, were very good. We would never know for sure but don't think Ward does as well. 

 

That's if he is ours  

Would be disastrous if they don't bring in a proper replacement. I'd rather have Smithies in goal than Ward.

That's ridiculous.  

Is it though? Ward was a major contributor to us losing games this season we should’ve won. The corresponding fixture against Bournemouth is a classic example. He’s cost us points throughout the season and as a result he’s cost us morale. Every team needs a keeper who can actually make difficult saves. We played 26 games with a keeper that simply couldn’t do that. It’s a massive factor amongst other factors that will likely result in relegation.

Saved us from a deserved trouncing. Did more than anyone today.

[jonny_wright]

Solid no.1 for the championship next season 

[FoxTimmy2]

I also had him as our best with Barnes in our previous game.

[fuchsntf]

Always said,he should be first choice…

And he could still hold his own in the PL.

[dayday]

As good as he was today , his distribution was poor 

[peterborofox]

I think he's decent but wish he'd start tearing into people similar to Kasper style. He seems too nice

[Hamilton Fox]

His kicking was rubbish (which I guess why Rodgers wouldn’t play him) but he saved us so many times, which says everything about how bad we were today

[cruzFOX]

The longer this debacle continues the more it looks like we should have dropped ward much sooner. Iverson is keeping the scoreline low in these losses otherwise it could have been much worse. He’s gonna be a very busy boy against man city next week.

I hope Kasper comes back as our goalkeeper coach.

Kaspers distribution was never his strongpoint either.

 

My word though keeping Iversen on the bench all this time.

 

Its like an act of sabotage on Brendan Rodgers part.

Apparently he didn't leave the club on a high note, both on and off the pitch.

Rodgers ball needed a keeper who can stay calm and pass out - iverson simply can’t do that.  Be interesting to see what Marsch makes of it 

 

for all of ward’s issues, he didn’t always panic (although he scared the life out of me a few times). Iverson doesn’t have the confidence to make a quick pass out wide

Fans should be fuming, as it's becoming increasingly clear EXACTLY why we're headed for relegation this season. The sheer negligence is unbelievable!

[Tomlcfc133]

I’d rather my goalkeeper keep the ball out the pissing net than be able to pass 5 yards 

[cruzFOX]

Iverson shot stopping is on par with kasper. Yes his goal kick distribution is as bad as kasper but by golly he’s keeping the ball out of the net so many times. Poor guy - the ones he’s had to concede have all come from his our players having brain dead moments and literally assisting the opposition with the perfect passes. If I was Iverson I’d be so vexxed right now I’d pin those culprits to the gym walls and slap some sense into them. The man is trying keep the ball out and those fools are helping the bloody opposition. WTF!

He was probably the only one who could see what was going to happen this season

Honestly distribution is pointless unless you’re genuinely a champions league standard team. Having a goalkeeper who can actually make saves is actually most important shockingly.

 

At least if we go down, we won’t have to fork out for a championship no.1. 

[Corky]

The ten minutes after half time were outstanding.

Of course keeping the ball out of the net is the most important thing for a keeper 

but not being able to kick it thirty yards to your full back and handing possession over isn’t good. In addition,  lacking the confidence to play a quick pass out to your full back who is in space is also a problem (although he isn’t alone in that respect atm. I’ve no idea if he would be as timid in a more confident team) 

 

ward and iverson have shown that kasper’s distribution was effectively top class in comparison!

He can have a crap distribution rate…His GK-skills are what’s needed.

 

top gks with good distribution,always tend to bollox something up while preparing

For distribution, charged down, hell of a lot..

 

 

[StanSP]

Thought the save with his foot was really good, but the more I watch it back it's actually extremely good. He's positioned his body well enough in the first place to cover the near post and still made the save. 

[Chelmofox]

Top class keeper between the sticks. To think what could have been if we had been using this option earlier in the season. Can't kick for toffee. They seem to be persisting with getting him to kick to the wings but they should just give up on it. Just boot it anywhere. As long as he keeps Ward out i couldn't care.
