Competition needed for Stockdale!

We seem to have serious competition for every position apart from the very important position of keeper? Stockdale it seems will play no matter what! This cannot be good! I`m not convinced, and from what i have seen so far,Henderson at Charlton looks like the better signing! Hope i am proved wrong!!

I've not been blown away by Stockdale yet, and I'm not rating him highly, but to suggest he was poor today is unfair. He did make some good saves and a lot of keepers would've been caught out by the second goal too.

I thought Stockdale had his best game for us tonight........... until the goal.

Actually, apart from letting in that 2nd goal, Stockdale had a decent game tonight.

He didn't have much to do in the 1st half, but stayed focused and did very well when he came out of his goal on one occasion, made a couple of good catches, and his distribution was very good. I was delighted in the 2nd half when he made that first brilliant save and then the second; even the first Ipswich goal didn't change my overall positive feeling about David's performance; unfortunately, then came that second goal and obviously it must have influenced most people's opinion on our keeper's performance (but I still think he had a better game tonight than against Brentford).

Keepers make mistakes, it's hardly breaking news. Mignolet made a cock up tonight too, but fortunately for him his team mates are able to score. It makes no difference that we conceded a second goal as we never scored a first goal. IMO Baldock, CMS and the other attackers/forwards should be getting some stick. How many goals have come from our strikers this season.

Getting somewhat concerned by Stockdale now. Second goal was not a goal a Championship - potentially Premier League - keeper should be conceding. Really not good enough I'm afraid - so far.

Not concerned where the goals are coming from then? I simply do not get this keeper slating when our 'forwards' do not score.

Erm, yes, very, I had a blazing row where I was slated by about 30+ people for stating that exact point. Would you like me to bump the thread?

Doesn't change the point I made in my post, on a completely different subject?

Personally I have less reservations regarding our goalkeeper than I do with numerous other positions.
