So you dont think the fact we have booted the old GK coach.....

and brought in two new coaches to share the load is worth giving a try for a while.
Maybe its not all Vlad, maybe he was told what to do in certain situations.

And just for balance (this is how its done with superior analysis) I would think Grimshaw should feel a little unlucky to not be given more chances because of Vlads errors.

Does any keeper in the modern game (passing from the back) go a whole season without making serious errors that probably cost the team points.

I would suggest every GK and outfield player costs their team points and some point.
