13 clean sheets in 45 games joint 3rd in the division, not bad numbers! Few flaps (Plymouth hurt) but stats don't lie | | | |  |

Yeah they don't lie as he's the 3rd worst keeper in the league | | | |

Ranked 7th in the division. Not sure the point you're trying to make? | | | |

Lovely stats R12, but I didn't complete nuclear physics at St. James' ..therefore unsure if he's blowing up or cooling down.
Edit..I think he's done a decent job...especially when compared to anyone else who might have come here. [Post edited 28 Apr 17:17]

I think that he’s unfairly criticised/made a scapegoat, any errors he makes get overly highlighted which wouldn’t be an issue we scored more. | | | |

I think he's 7th based alphabetically.
If you order by goals prevented he's 3rd worst in the league. I believe goal prevented looks at the expected goals vs goals conceded. So if you're getting loads of clean sheets because the teams neutralising the attempts of the opposition it's allows you to look more at the goalkeepers contribution. | | | |

Yeah. He's got the 7th best name in the league innit?!   | | | |
| Begovic has done alright! on 17:29 - Apr 28 with 2157 views | Rangersw12 |
I basically judge him on the PSXG ( expected goals on how likely he will save the shot ) and he's minus 7.7 ( positive suggests better luck and above average GK ability ) so minus 7.7 means he's the 3rd worst keeper .
If you're just judging on clean sheets and goals conceded then he's done ok but it doesn't really reflect the full picture IMO. | | | |

Fair enough. Your opinion. | | | |
| Begovic has done alright! on 17:38 - Apr 28 with 2118 views | Rangersw12 |
Which is why we should be looking at someone like the Rotherham keeper who has been excellent every time I've seen him | | | |

Clive will blow his top when he sees another thread about Begovic .
Remember the absolute cluster fcuk 2 seasons ago when we had 5 keepers now look back at 23/24 when one man stood in goals for for every second of every game you have to tip your cap to him.
At every level keepers have nightmares its just last man standing syndrome and mistakes are highlighted and very costly its just the way it is .
He was a superb servant ,move him on if needed but lets give the man his due for playing a massive part in keeping us up . | | | |

OMG not another Begovic post. He's done ok this season - especially in the last few games. Let's leave it at that. Who cares if he's 3rd best or 3rd worst. We are staying up! | | | |

I liked the analysis by the young lad did scouting goalkeepers and think the Lincoln goalkeeper Jensen would be a good option. | | | |

TBF I think he's been hard done by, his name deserves to be top 5 at least. | | | |

"Who cares if he's 3rd best or 3rd worst"
Well it's quite important as I don't think we should offer the 3rd worst keeper in the league another contract as if we do I think he will hinder our progress next season !
We should thank him for the last two games and say good bye | | | |

I think at times he's been really poor and others he's been quite good. We'd be mad to give him another year though | | | |
| Begovic has done alright! on 18:50 - Apr 28 with 1891 views | Boston |
Is there an Aaron Archibald Andersen available? We'd have a triple A keeper by these ratings. | |

Agreed
My concern about the Rotherham keeper is his ability to play out from the back. From what I saw he can't do.it. it's an important of how we play under Marti. [Post edited 28 Apr 22:01]

Why anyone wants the worst footballer in your side playing out from the back is one of many parts of the modern game i just don't understand. | | | |

Cos if you just knock it long it's a 50/50 chance you lose possession. In theory by passing between your defenders and a DM you create space to play it to a creative player further forward. Having the keeper able to play it to gives another safe option to continue tontire out the opposition. | |

Thanks for that.I grew up in the 'get it down and get it forward' era. | | | |

Modern football innit
My youngest son's under 9 team play out from the back with sometimes comical results ! | | | |

Do we need a third Begovic thread to say he is crap? | |
