Cityamatic Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Before the match I put a comment on the clubs FB page about why Sorensen had been dropped to the bench and it got a few likes, club responded with something about him being the preferred keeper and there was nothing wrong with Sorensen. When did this happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr lime Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Schoolboy positioning for the Adelaide goal tonight. But Bouzanis is not terrible, I am happy to have him as a reasonably capable back up. But.... STOP THIS STUPID EXPERIMENT NOW!! FFS put Sorensen back in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredinho69 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Tbh I don't mind him he suits our playing style of passing it out the back and a patient build up. Don't really think the goal was his faul tonight it was just poor marking and a great cross. His distribution is a joy to watch however he does have the occasional fuck up 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofhearts Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 The only thing he does better then Sorenson is distribution. He has no command of his box, no confidence, and constantly keeps costing us goals. I'm all for giving a young keeper a go, however bouzanis has proven he is not the keeper to take over the role once Sorenson leaves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo400 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 I'm more worried about our refusal to mark up players on set pieces and general schoolboy defending rather than bouzanis, the goals he is copping Sorensen would be conceeding as well, I'm actually nervous about him coming back in...can he handle 50 back passes a game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His distribution is a joy to watch however he does have the occasional fuck up Sorry but take it from someone who has played in goal at a half decent level: standing level with your near post 3 metres out when someone is crossing from a reasonable distance almost on the goal line is really Under 12 level positioning. If he is standing in the right position the cross would have almost gone down his throat rather than dropping over his head. Defenders usually let the guy they are marking go when the ball is dropping 3 yards out in the middle of the goal from a wide and narrow position. Goal was his but good to get the win. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) First minute of the game I already saw that Adelaide made a huge tactical error, they were not closing him down. When he isn't under pressure, yes he can distribute the ball well for a keeper, and that is why JVS likes him. Problem is when he is under pressure he gets himself into trouble. The far bigger problem though is that he is possibly the worst professional goalkeeper I have ever seen when it comes to actually keeping goal. I'm not even exaggerating, he has been a professional since he was 16 years old, how can he be so bad? How can he have so little clue about basic goalkeeper positioning for a guy who has been a pro for so long? It boggles the mind, just look at the photo above holy crap.

Jestr Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) That cross was always going to be his to grab or at least punch. He moves too far towards the front post then totaly gets confused what his role is in that instant. He does not command his box and can't even manage the 5 yard line. Whats the point of descent distribution when you leak goals. Hand gloves to someone else and became a defender.

He's not very good with the ball at his feet, not fast and I don't think I've seen him overlap and get a ball in to the opposition box. I thought Retre could've been the back up to Franjic at RB so I don't know why Muscat was bought in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we stick to three at the back i think we'll stick with Muscat, likewise if we go back to 4, or even 5 we'll bring in Franjic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 This is from the club 5 things we learnt Change of the guardian? Dean Bouzanis looks to have dislodged Thomas Sorensen in City’s goalkeeper ranks with the 26-year-old starting his fourth game this season. Speaking to the media after the match, Head Coach John van’t Schip declared Bouzanis at this moment is “our number one”. “He did well when he came in, he did well in the Derby. I also said he was very good in the pre-season that there was competition with Thomas,” van’t Schip said. “They are two very different types of goalkeepers, he got the opportunity and he deserved to continue. Like every other player, Dean has to keep focused and keep on working hard and make sure he stays number one.” Read more at http://www.melbournecityfc.com.au/article/five-things-we-learned-city-v-adelaide/1f173i6ayq4ci1r4w8j7mhs03d#o0vsYvbdVm0gXpyW.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't come as a surprise but sometimes I wonder how JVS ever got to any decent level of coaching given some of his stupidity. I do agree with one thing though: "They are two very different types of goalkeepers" : Sorensen is very very good, has played 100 times for his country, played in two World Cups and two Euro Championships and a number of years at the top level in Europe and was named the best goalkeeper in the league last season; Bouzanis can kick well. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best keeper in the league last year, selected as the number one to start the season. Kept a clean sheet before saving two points for us by stopping Phoenix scoring after Rose's bad backpass. Versus a couple of soft goals against Perth and a clanger against Adelaide. If you want to argue "don't change a winning team" there would be some logic. But no loss of form by Sorensen = he should be playing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
