Muric on 01:02 - Dec 28 with 4661 viewsTresBonne

Yep great stats tonight:

Kicked it directly out of play three times
Only managed to hammer it at a defender to deal with once
Somehow let a ball squeeze through his near post once
Managed about one half arsed clap to the away end
Made two routine saves (his job)

Great performance real improvement.

I make you right. Arsenal fans around us were laughing at his kicking - I wasn’t

Man of the match meaning his positional error cost us the goal that lost us the game. If so I agree with you. Merry Christmas (sorry if that offended anyone).

He made about 3-4 outstanding saves to save our embarrassing performance.

I know it's trendy to throw him under the bus but he isn't quite as bad as people think, his mistakes are just magnified by the fact we are under a lot of pressure in the Prem

Much like Jack Clarke, he'll grow into an important player for us


There's no evidence Hladky would have been any more reliable in the Prem although I'd suspect his kicking would be better and I suspect we will be very lucky to ever find a keeper better than Hladky on the deck frankly

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

He could be prime Buffon from this point onwards in his Ipswich career and it won't matter one bit.

The mouthbreathers have already decided he isn't good enough and, to be fair on them, they are the best placed to pass judgement.

His mistakes put us under pressure though, no? Isn’t that the point? His kicking was an example of that last night. Shaking the ball out for a throw in our final third against a team of that calibre invites pressure and has them playing in territories we want to dominate (a para-phrase of KM).

So shanking the ball out once given the pressure we were under is enough to condemn him? Give your head a wobble, ibbleobble.

No-one's offended, you're just wrong. He was positioned where a goalkeeper should be, the errors were with Wolfy and Greaves failing to stop the ball/mark their men (in Greaves' case).

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Once? His kicking was poor all last night and no, I’m not condemning him for that. I want Walton in as Muric has made far too many basic mistakes in his 17 or so games.

No different to several miss placed passes by our defence and midfield in the final third of the pitch, so why single out the keeper for this?

Yeah we deffo want Walton whose been on the bench his entire career and has never played this level consistently, is worse with his feet, is less commanding in the air and a worse shop stopper

Thankfully KM won’t drop Muric

His long range distribution was dreadful. Made a decent save second half. Would have been another near post goal conceded if Jesus was onside. Overall far from MOTM.

Hladky wouldn’t have worked but suspect the club will be reflecting that they could have done better. Such a critical position for a team who scores so few goals. They all make mistakes (we see it every week in other games) but on balance think we could have done better.

Nothing up with his positioning. Havertz got in between Greaves and a late to react and tuck in Davis.

Davis has cost us nearly as many goals as Muric but seems to escape all criticism.

Correct. Davis is having an appalling season. He’ll never be good enough for this level.

It makes me laugh. Third goal against Newcastle, Town fans moaning about him passing that ball to Cajuste, main complaint being both are under pressure from pressing N'cstl players, so in that situation just boot it up field even if it goes out. Last night he was under pressure and this time he boots it up field and it goes out, Town fans moan about him just kicking it up field rather than passing it.

As you say the entitled fans have decided him and Harry will be this year's scapegoats.

The Newcastle keeper shanked one out for a throw the other day. Don’t remember that being commented on. Human beings making mistakes? Shouldn’t be allowed. There are elements to Muric’s game I’m not over the moon about, but this demonising of him is getting ridiculous.

As for Hladky, he got found out in the second half of the season and didn’t find it anywhere near as easy to set up from the back. He made plenty of mistakes too. Do people think he’d have found it easier in the PL? I don’t. It’s a hazard of how the manager wants the team to play out.

Given the level of abuse he’s getting, I doubt Muric will be a good player for us. But he will be for somebody else. So things to improve on and as a keeper his prime is yet to come, probably elsewhere.

It reminds me a bit of Damien Delaney situation. He got dogs abuse here. Many in the crowd got their dearest wish and off he went. To Crystal Palace where he made 170 appearances, five out of six seasons in the Premier League while we wallowed around in the Championship. Fair to say he had the last laugh.

I thought Muric was ok, Cajuste was motm for me, heads and shoulders above everyone else in a blue shirt. Classy player who will be in the PL next year if he wants to stay in England.

A throw in? He put us under pressure by giving away a throw in!!! How about Delap and Hutch constantly giving away possession or is it not fashionable not slag them off.
Arsenal have been exceptional with corners this year. Muric commanded his box very well and had a good game.

Never slate our own Goalkeeper. Absolute no point. We saw this with Andy Marshall, ended up being a nervous wreck.

You can't compare kamikaze Muric to Delaney ffs. Muric has been at SEVEN clubs before us (loan and perm) and has failed to nail on a starting place in every one of them. In fact, ex-Forest manager Lamouchi wrote him off just after FOUR games and sent him back to City. From Day 1 when he started his career he had been prone to inexplicable decision making and cock ups and hasn't improved one bit.

Fair enough, he didn't have a kamikaze moment yesterday but watching a Prem keeper kick the ball out of play without pressure multiple times is shocking.

Seven different managers across different leagues and countries can't be wrong.

Delaney had eight clubs and god knows how many managers before the last Ipswich manager (MM?) kicked him out ‘by mutual consent’ with the blessing of many in the crowd who couldn’t see the back of him fast enough. So it does bear comparison. How many of Delaney’s managers were wrong? McCarthy plus how many?

I didn’t see last nights game. So he kicked the ball out of play multiple times. How many? If you are talking about the season, Hladky did that a fair amount too, when he did kick it. Virtually all keepers do if they are kicking to the side lines. So do outfield players sometimes.

Lastly, McKenna approved the signing of Muric. So if you want to dish out the abuse because you don’t understand why we signed somebody for whom ‘seven different managers across different leagues and countries can’t be wrong’ I suggest you start with KM.

Delaney was a regular starter at Hull for SIX seasons and at QPR for another two before joining us.

To compare his past record before playing for us with Muric’s is like comparing night and day.

Unlike Muric, Hull and QPR fans didn’t warn us Delaney was $hite and a master of self destruction when we signed him.

Unlike Muric, no manager binned Delaney after just a couple of games.

Unlike Muric, Delaney only cost us £750,000. Muric cost 12 times that or even more. Expectations go up when someone is Ipswich Town’s record GK signing.

I’m not comparing Muric with Hladky, but for a Prem GK he is shocking. Reminds me of Bazunu at Saints last season. Even if we couldn’t afford Kelleher we should have gone for Cooper or WBA’s Palmer.
