Ex keeper Paul Robinson doesn’t rate Freddie Woodman 20:17 - Jun 3 with 1262 views | KeithHaynes | At the highest of levels, not sure Celtic are, but this is what he said. “There is no doubt it, he is an exciting young goalkeeper. My worry is he has not been tried or tested at the top, top level. From what I have seen of him he is very good but there is much more pressure on a goalkeeper playing for Celtic than a goalkeeper playing for Swansea. If Newcastle are willing to let him go, is that a player Celtic want? “

Ex keeper Paul Robinson doesn’t rate Freddie Woodman on 20:50 - Jun 3 with 1200 views | jack247 | People associated with Celtic and Rangers tend to overestimate their teams. I’m pretty sure Newcastle would breeze the SPL. Not good enough for them does not necessarily mean not good enough for Celtic. | | | |
Ex keeper Paul Robinson doesn’t rate Freddie Woodman on 22:41 - Jun 3 with 1115 views | ReslovenSwan1 | Robinson does not actually comment on anyhing relating to Woodman's game. He talks about external factors out of Woofdmans control. Not worth a great deal I would suggest, | |

Ex keeper Paul Robinson doesn’t rate Freddie Woodman on 09:41 - Jun 4 with 965 views | monmouth | Stuck on his line, weak as a kitten, can’t pass, unbelievably slow witted, watches shots roll past him. Good at penalties and the odd flying spectacular. Mid to low championship at best. “Exciting”? Only if you’re an opposition forward. Another opinion like those on Cooper, using received wisdom and myth and not on watching the bloke for any length of time. As long as we don’t waste another season ‘developing’ him and bailing the barcodes out of their profligacy, I don’t care where he goes. [Post edited 4 Jun 2021 9:59]

That's the bit I don't understand about Cooper getting praise for "developing youngsters". He shows very little faith in players outside his England U17 bubble, Cabango has only recently ousted Bennett and that is mainly because of the change to a 4. Don't get me wrong, he trains everyday and he may think Mulder is not up to it, but he's been a part of a successful under 23 side these boys need a chance. | | | |

An England u17 bubble consisting of players who spent 90% of their time being coached by someone else at their clubs. | |

Ex keeper Paul Robinson doesn’t rate Freddie Woodman on 14:25 - Jun 4 with 825 views | ReslovenSwan1 | The time has arrived for Benda, Brandon Cooper and Garrick to become regulars . All are 21-22 or so and ready. All have good long contracts. All are keen as mustard. All have at least half a season under their belt in lower leagues. Theoretically Garrick and Cooper B could directly replace Roberts and Cabango generating cash for the purchase of a striker and creative midfield player. They will have to be shown patience. Latibueadiere and Whiitaker are a bit younger and also need to feature frequently and show rapid improvement. [Post edited 4 Jun 2021 14:40]

Yes I was surprised to see Garrick do quite well in the FA cup tie at Stevenage in Roberts's right wing back position. Perhaps you missed it.? Clearly its something they had been working on in training. On loan at Swindon he was mostly used as a forward. He might be a useful player to regualrly come of the bench for a 20 minuite burst in a numbe of positions next season. He was stop start at Swansea with muscle issues but had a good 15 match run in a struggling Swindon side. He is very athletic but needs consistency and resileince. | |

No I didn't miss him playing in that position against league 2 opposition in the FA cup. There we are, you've just invalidated your own point. In his time in league 1 he was used as a forward but you think he can suddenly step into the shoes of our player of the season at RWB in the championship. Silliness. [Post edited 4 Jun 2021 17:20]

He played at least one game for Swindon as a RWB. it is a position he is now familiar with and can play there if required. I try to be constructive with you but you are doggedly contrary. You will note I used the word 'theoretically'. If a whopping £10m offer comes in late for CR23 then the club can shake hands knowing Garrick is an option at RWB. | |

So 1 FA cup game against league 2 opposition and 1 game on loan at a relegated league 1 team and he's off and running to replace Roberts. Righteo. Theoretically or in practice this fantasy is bonkers. I know we have financially cautious owners but not even them will consider Garrick a viable alternative. | |

The facts are Garrick is highly rated within the club and will play next season with a long contract under his belt. He clearly has been working to build up strength and resilience. He has at least 2 senior games under his belt in that position and is not kid now. Time to throw him in the deep end and Brandon Cooper this is the Swansea way. The alternative is a Keiran Freeman type signing and that did not go well. I have every confidence in them both. I have concerns over Cullen at this level. He needs to scores some goals in league 1 or 2. He cannot afford to sit on the bench. Newpot would be good for him. Garrick has been given a long contract. Nothing fantasy about it. | |

Cooper was quite willing to play CR23 as a forward player in the biggest game in his short career a couple of weeks back. He had only one or two game experience in that postion. It is football. It is quite normal to move versitile players in different postions. Potter played Grimes at fullback and Clement played Clucas at fullback too. Like I say they must have plans for Garrick. He big strong and fast. He seems to me to have a cool head in front of goal. 40 games on his CV upto to now. | |

Roberts, Grimes, Clucas, these players are established seasoned campaigners at this level who can if needed or the game suits play in different positions. Completely different story with a player like Garrick who hasn't even broken in at this level in his traditional position. Yea I'm sure there is a plan for him, but it won't be as the replacement for Roberts at ring wing back next season | |

Once he has done that he will need to lift his head slightly to see what's around him. At the moment it's headless chicken. I hope he stuffs those comments down my throat. We've will see. | |

Loans come with strict conditions. TBF Woodman can be very good but IMO he's not as good all round as he was when he arrived. The only youngsters I have seen develop are Cabango and Guehi. I never doubted Ben's ability but Guehi took a long time to improve and he sometimes gets praise based on a few very good actions rather than his whole game.d | |
