Best goalkeeper

Sun Oct 19, 2025 8:11 am

Best goalkeeper at City since when???
Its early days, I know, and he cannot play great every game. Alzo when a goalie has an off day the team usually lose.
But Nathan Trott has made a great impression so far with his overall play….. shot stopping. crosses and temprement. He also has clear kicking skills and ability with the ball at his feet. (although Sometimes we overplay at the back and may pay for it on the rare occasions). :bluebird: :bluebird:

VERDICT: i have watched City since the days of Jimmy Scoular (Bob Wilson and Fred Davies) and i have not seen a better keeper at City. Keep it up Nathan!

Best keeper I can ever remember for sure.
We wouldn't be anywhere near top if the league had it not been for him.
I just hope we can keep hold of him what ever division we are in next season.

No chance you need to see it from behind the ball to appreciate ehat happened! Basically trott was unsighted by defender the ball went past defender it then swerved leaving trott flat footed..

Agreed. We've needed a keeper for years, and keepers and strikers win the leagues. We've got one end of the pitch sorted!

It swerved, and Chambers blocked his view; he almost got it, and he more than made up for it with great saves later.

He plays at his best with Fish and Lalwor; the three of them have the best understanding. The poor bugger has had to deal with Osho assisting opposing Strikers for weeks; that has to be unsettling.

Salech is currently up amongst the top scorers in league 1.

Rival manager's dig at Cardiff City star sends fans into hysterics.

Sour grapes he won us the game.

We have for the most part been OK in the GK dept over the years. Trott has been immense for us though and it's still early days too, I think he could be eventually be our best GK since my personal favourite who was Marshall. Time will tell but keep it up Nathan.

We have been blessed by some good keepers over the years and had a good back up some seasons .
Trott has to be the best keeper in this Division .
