    Kept us in the game and shut down the Mannion debate for me

    Agreed.
    Certainly earned his corn today that first half.

    Let’s have no more nonsense about picking Mannion over him, Kaminski is levels above.

    Incredibly bad day for the haters 
    Please don't exaggerate, I doubt any fan hates Kaminski.
    I hear plenty of fans slagging him off...

    Think Kaminski is a downfall of his own previous success when you come with a reputation of an ex premier league footballer hundreds of appearances and big wages/fees good performances like today seem standard. 

    Then when u have Mannion who’s best career moment beforehand was being a relegated Cambridges No.1 for a 1/3 of the season good performances seem far more impressive

    Surprised this useless fucking jobber isn’t getting more stick after today. Should have claimed the ball in for the first, could have done better with another too. 

    Instils zero confidence into our backline, glued to his own line. Cannot kick and is just all round shit.

    he will be a big reason we go down this season.

    He was poor today, a few chances he could have collected but didn't. Became clear the backline's faith in him kept declining through the match

    Jones could legitimately bring back Mannion now notwithstanding the defenders performance in front of him doesn’t help. 

    That with other team changes might be the kick up the backside that gets us playing again. 

    Same old same old will not do. 
  • First goal he should hold, not push out. The penalty he had all the time in the world to just lay on it but somehow still managed to push it straight back out. He’s a calamity now and should come out

    If Kaminski was in goal at Wembley it would be Leyton Orient in the championship. His inability to command his box or just leave his line is maddening. He would not have been able to handle the amount of crosses they peppered us with in the last 10 mins of that match.

    Im not convinced by kaminski. Makes some decent saves but parries a lot to the opposition, never comes and collects, no command of the box 
  • Good shot stopper no doubts about it.

    But thank Heavens that others can finally see there is so much more to being a good all round keeper than that. It drives me mad the way he is practically always rooted to his line, he hardly ever comes for a cross. And when you are under pressure like today you just need your keeper to come for the odd cross and take the sting out of the game. Just cast your mind back to Ben Amos and the way he would constantly come and claim crosses - it makes so much difference.

    His short passing out from the back today was also verging on suicidal at times, passing out to players who were being marked. Unless Jones is instructing him to do it, completely braindead.

    Whole lot of them need a good shake up and Mannion definitely deserves a chance in the team.

    Up until the last few weeks I felt he’d been ok. He’s a real worry now and is on track for the hatrick of relegations

    Really can’t stand him.
  • Got to go! Being a good shotstopper is not enough

    Mannion in next week 

    we drop every other player when poor he shouldnt be any different

    Mannion has so much more authority and calmness
    and actually commands his defence

    Everything that Luton fans said when he signed has been bang on the money. Great shotstopper who will have his own save of the season contest but doesn't command his box and has shoddy distribution. 

    For someone I really saw as a cornerstone signing in the summer I can't help but feel slightly let down.

    In a game like today where you get bombarded with crosses you need someone that can command their box.

    Kaminski is the opposite of that keeper.

    £20k a week as well. Highest earner in the squad.
  • Was stood right behind him in the first half and had an absolute shocker. Spent most of the time looking at the screen checking his own work or getting annoyed his poor distribution kept landing on a blue head.

    His lack of ability to catch the ball, matched by his inability to kick a ball sadly limit his usefulness playing in goal despite his brilliance in getting parts of his body hit by the ball.

    He’s a cracking shot stopper but for me a decent keeper commands his box, he is petrified of coming off his line and I actually think it makes our back line even more shaky.

    The Watford game first game of the season when he hesitated and wiped out the player - should have been a penalty. 

    The other night against Derby he should have been straight off his line for the second goal and he would have easily made it to clear the ball away. 

    The Stoke goal at Britannia when the ball came all the way across his 6 yard box. 

    It’s time for Mannion to be given a fair crack!

    Kaminsky is our best keeper for a while if it was not for him we would be bottom 3 ….
  • Kaminski has given us more points than he has cost us. I know this might be controversial take but I would go as far as saying;

    Kaminski is the best we have ever had.

    He doesn't come off his line but his shot stopping is amazing. He did save a penalty today. People moan about his distribution but how many keepers have we had that always used to kick the ball out all the time

    His shot stopping is ok .  I think his spring is quite poor .  The rest of his game is awful

    I disagree! 

    I think he just had an in form solid back line in front of him at the start of the season. Since they have dropped off and fallen ill of injuries his weaknesses have been exposed.

    Best we’ve ever had? I think they call that ‘rage bait’ these days.

    Not rage bait but if you look at most complete player being able to play out from the back, shot stopper, able to kick the ball to the full backs etc... happy to be told who you think is better all round
