He's also got a moment of madness / howler in him. If we were scoring loads of goals weekly it wouldn't matter ss much but right now he needs to sort his own shit out as much as the next man. Edit: the defence being dugshite would make it difficult for any keeper. Said it before, I'll say it again, there's a fucking huge weakness there. Their 2nd goal was awful by him.

Popular Post McEwan's Lager 32,033 Posted September 1 Popular Post Share Posted September 1 He’s honestly shocking. He’s letting in goals that average keepers would save. He’s no longer “least of our issues” as some people keep telling us. He should be dropped and I’d be looking at offloading him in January as he’s not worth the wages he’s on.

The most he's ever went for is £4m and that was 11 years ago, the last time anyone paid any money for him was four years ago when Palace paid £800k, last year any club in England could've got him for nothing, he's not done anything overly spectacular to suggest clubs would spend silly money on him, especially now when every club is focused on PSR. I agree that we need to sell players when they're at their peak, thats the only way to develop the squad, but we also need to be realistic about players like Butland's sale potential.

Craiggybear 6,326 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 His attitude is more of a concern than his form... 2nd goal he absolutly fucked it, no "perhaps" about it. "I looked at my positioning at the second one. It's suitable for where we were in the game, in possession of the ball. In giving away the ball I'm trying to get back to my optimal position to where I wanted to be, and perhaps didn't quite where I wanted to be ideally." https://www.footballscotland.co.uk/spfl/jack-butland-defends-himself-over-29849269 HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madina 4,241 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 You can see why his career was on the wind down and he'd barely played for a year or so. I know he was at Man Utd but I dont think even played a game there. Thought he was cracking last season up until about Feb. Still can't get over how he gifted Idah that goal in the cup final.
