I know kipre is getting some stick for the goal yesterday, And it was largely his fault..
But I'm yet to be convinced by allsop, in my eyes he could have come to collect that ball, most of the time he appears to be glued to his line.
Opinions?

Good with the ball at his feet generally, but not so good at being a goalkeeper in my opinion.

I’d like to see Alnwick given a run. He did well In tbr first Leeds game. Little he could have done for the second game.

Watch Alsop , he is way of his line way to much and outside his box beyond, just watch.

Brought in as better with his feet, he's OK but I've seen errors and certainly no better than Smithies IMO. But we've always been OK for GKs for years, we all know where we have to improve.

I mean from corners etc, not from open play. I know he's always on edge of box or further up.
I don't think he commands his area though

He is probably the least of our worries at the moment.

Allsop will be playing higher up next match as we need more shots on target ;)

Yes he saved a penalty tonight but Christ Almighty he will NOT take charge in the six yard box.

Rooted to his line yet again tonight for their goal for a cross that was deep in the six yard box. For fucks sake - he's a big bloke. He should be coming through every player to claim that ball two yards from his goal line.

Piss poor by him - again.

I've been saying this for ages pal, been clear all season. May be good with his feet but needs to be able to command his box and catch a ball. Really doesn't look comfortable on corners.
