    Plus you don’t waste budget on areas that don’t need changing Kaminski and Mannion are good keepers …. Mannion let himself down with poor mistakes v Bristol and Sheff W but an excellent number two

    I wouldn’t play him at right back personally 😉😆

    Good keepers for a top L1 or bottom championship club nothing better. Mannion will stay because his wages are minimal for a No.2 keeper. Kaminski in theory should be our best player with the wages he’s on but he wouldn’t have even got into our top 5 for POTY. 

    Hopefully he has enough past credit in the bank from his career to make a club willing to take him off our hands

    That's.... not how it works though is it?

    I thought he did okay. Bit weak for the goal and why oh why did he save that shot that was going wide and give them a corner. Otherwise, claimed crosses pretty well. Definitely an area we can improve on but still not a priority for me. The key thing is that if we actually score some goals, any perceived goalkeeping errors matter much less - that's the area to focus on.

    No but can’t sit there and tell me Kaminski is worth that kind of money the exact kind of reason we need to be trying to shift him this summer. For a club with a smaller budget at this level we aren’t in a luxury position to waste it

    Anyone thinking VAR overturns that goal is kidding themselves. Firstly the shirt pull is over before he falls but also he puts his hands on the striker too. The guidance is if both players are grappling to tend to let it go. He wasn’t helped by the marking though and it was a well worked set piece. The way Hull blocked actually reminded me of the Knibbs goal against Watford. 

    Beyond that he had a decent game and came for more crosses. He had another he flapped at and a shot he needlessly turned behind though. He’s too old to coach both how to claim crosses and how to keep his concentration. You could probably do one but not the other. If there are suitors I can see him leaving but I also struggle to see the suitors 
    I couldn't work out where he was for their goal so watched back multiple replays.

    It was the fleetest of shirt pulls and the bloke had let go before Kaminski inexplicably throws himself to the floor. Their guy heads the ball and it sails over his head as he's sat on the floor, waving his arms in the air. If he stays on his feet they don't score.

    I know that's the way of football these days, but it's complete bullshit. Stay on your feet, play the bloody game.

    But out resident WUM gave him 8/10 for his performance yesterday 😂

    The flap for their goal was laughable

    He had a bigger flap in the second half when he came for a cross and miss it.

    I don't rate him at all, as i have regularly stated on here since early in the season, but I thought that up to the goal he had performed much better yesterday. Unfortunately, to concede a goal like that was disgraceful. To just crumple in a heap just because your shirt gets a slight tug, expecting the ref to blow for a foul, is beyond ridiculous. Has he never heard of playing to the whistle? If he had stood up he would have just caught the ball. There was no real danger to our goal.
    The second half just typified him. He made a decent double save but he was at sixes and sevens on one cross and the shot that was going at least a yard wide that he tipped behind for a corner was beyond ridiculous.
    I hope that we can move him on but I have my doubts that that will be possible.
    I personally think that Mannion is the better keeper of the two, if not as flashy as TK. People need to remember the difference in their ages and experience. Mannion is still relatively young, with less than 70 league appearances to his name, against over 470 for TK. Mannion will continue to improve with experience, whereas TK won't.

    It's become a bit fashionable to batter Kaminski it seems.

    His rumoured wage goes up a grand every time he makes a mistake it seems

    Going to share this as I think it's important and it's public knowledge.  

    A fan I know was told by Kaminski that he can do better, knows he can do better and his fathers passing impacted him this season. 

    Happened almost a year ago to yesterday's game. 

    I am incredibly guilty of removing the human side of football when watching players and giving pelters, and it's something I have been trying really hard to work on (still working) 

    It's perfectly reasonable to think with the game being so close to the anniversary of his father's passing it could have impacted his mental state for this game and even fixtures recently. 

    I think he has been disappointing, but, that's mainly cause of the wages which isn't necessarily his fault, and the reputation he has at Blackburn. 

    I think he will be no.1 next season and with a bit more confidence we may see the best from him, that's what I am hoping anyway. 

    Here's Kaminski talking about his father a year ago:

    As someone that has lost a parent I can empathise but if he has tried to say that the loss of his dad a year ago has had anything to do with the way that he has played this season is just lame and I don't buy it at all
