He’s 30 now and has been at Braga for a long time.

Keepers tend to peak at that age though and can still go for another 8-q- years if they look after themselves and have a bit of luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you are probably right especially if he’s caused them problems when they’ve played braga, sometime a cause of buying your rivals best players to remain the best domestically even if he wasn’t to be first choice.

By the same token he went on loan to Livingston and he couldn’t hold down the number one position for them. Not every player is going to make it.

Not every player is going to make it. Circumstances played a big part in that, just as he'd got into the side and settled as number one, he tested positive for Covid and then was out of the side. Made his return played a few games then Livi faced us and he couldn't play so was back out the team, Stryjek had a couple really good games so became hard to drop him. McCrorie came back in, played a few games, it was time to face Rangers again and out he went. Think of all the players we loan out, we shouuld often try minimise sending keepers to Premiership sides.

I’ve been an advocate of McGregor being demoted for sometime. As you say, McCrorie didn’t let us down when give a chance but neither has McClaughlin (spelling) on a more regular basis. Purely on that the latter gets my vote. falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, McGregor has cost us points this season as well as saving us at times. I don’t see McClaughlin (spelling) as a downgrade. Just my opinion though.

superallysbears 7,879 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 No for me, looked better at acting than goalkeeping, decent at coming for a cross ball but that was about it imo. Blumhoilann 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the upper limit of the standard of goalkeeper we could hope to attract here, not that I think we're looking or that there's any chance of him coming.
