It's early days, Dixon looks an ordinary, but certainly not poor, option & compared with the bizarre Crellin experiment 12m ago he's a shining light. Gilks worked wonders last year & was a coach on the pitch for the defence once he came in. He certainly doesn't deserve writing off just yet, but every single one of us knows he is time limited. @Big Ehas asked me to ask you word for word what you said about goalie situation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game has moved on, don’t need to be 6’6 anymore Look at Casillas, Ederson both just over 6ft, agility speed communication and distribution are the biggest attributes especially in teams like us Back in our PL days we were lucky we'd stumbled across Jussi In that time I'd say the only better ones were Cech, Van Der Saar and maybe Friedel Very few great keepers Most range from average to decent And the occasional Crellin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jussi was a diamond find really, 400+ appearances. Reckon I could count the amount of mistakes he did on one hand. Two games stand out 2-1 at Old Trafford and 1-0 at Hull, two of the best GK performances I have ever seen He’d be £50m in todays money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he turned out to be one of our best ever. If only he could have been a better distributor of the ball. Obviously he was a big part of the Kevin Davies style & suited Sam's system very well, but his kicks were as likely to go out of play, or straight to the other keeper as anywhere. In later years his annual contract brinkmanship became tedious too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
