Joel Robles

[Paul w]

Koeman gave the Clev the captain's armband in the preseason...

I'm trying to forget that sad day.

I think we need an expert goalkeeping opinion in this thread.

@Dithering Dougie WHERE ARE YOU

Can't do worse than Stickleback surely?.

Wanna bet?

Haha he did alright when he's come in though, kept a few clean sheets when we were really struggling under Bobby then that oaf got straight back in and all went to hell again. Stickle been poor lately think Joel should get a few games.

He probably should really. But I wouldn't be expecting much difference sadly.

 

[Groucho]

I'd give him a start.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Don't think he is a long term solution. But surely deserves a decent stint starting. Koeman and martinez rate him a number 2 ..maybe for a reason. Still his performances haven't been all too bad.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

I've personally seen him enough times to be utterly unimpressed by him, a totally unexceptional lower league goalie at best. We desperately need to sign a keeper if only to let Robles go.

But that sums up Stickle now? Least Joel hasnt actually let us down, I think everyone agrees we need a new keeper but for now he needs to start Joey.

Me Nan would be better than Stokenbong lol

Yep, when he's been called upon he's always done a job for us, he's no worse or better than Stek, actually, IMO, he's probably even better than Stek, just.

 

[royvernon39]

Other than Sunderland away last season, Robles has always played well, sometimes very well.

The Stek has made more cock-ups in ten games or so than Robles ever has.

Douglas been gone, his corners all taken and his game exposed as some weak ass stuff

 

[Caolam]

I can't understand why he hasn't asked for a transfer, surely he could get first team football somewhere instead of being the eternal bench warmer at Everton.

He's never been first choice at any of his clubs, he's not that good.

He'll be out the door this summer, maybe next month.
