His biggest issue is he's 2 stone overweight. It's going to significantly reduce his reaction time, his ability to leap etc.. No excuse for a professional who trains every day.

If he was that overweight surely the club would discipline him over his condition

Much better with his feet which is plus on Pattinson. Pattinson is an absolute liability....cost us for the 2nd against Leeds and arguably the 1st too if he comes of his line. Cost us again today...needs dropped

He is Hank. He actually looked today like he has put more on.
It's going to affect his all round game.
The days of big bulky keepers are long gone.

Surely they go through fitness etc if the club thought he was overweight surely they’d discipline him over

One thing I will say he definitely doesn’t suit that goatee

he has no command of his box. His quickness to see what's in front of him leaves a lot to be desired. He is overweight looking at him. His kicking to placements on the wings is and has been atrocious for a full season and a half. His footwork is debatable. Positioning is not a strong point nor is His ability in recovery from the ground. His talking to his defence( a key part of any keeper) well I've not seen that. On the plus side, he is a good shot stopper. But again today, he didn't hang around on the pitch at full time🙁
 
The only thing I can think of is that he has bulked up to increase his physical presence in the box.
But you can be physically strong by knowing how to position yourself.

I still think it’s the top makes him look bulky rather than him actually being bulky himself

He’s the best keeper at the club.

But he’s starting to cost us more points than he’s saving us. Teams know he poor on crosses. They target us. This is the key reason we concede so many late goals. As soon as balls come into the box we struggle.

I’m beginning to think we might need to look at a replacement. Which pains me a bit as I’m convinced he has all the tools to be a great keeper. It’s not working at the moment though.

You can guarantee that more teams will now be swinging corners in under our crossbar.
 
Surely resting him and having him concentrating on fitness and back to basics is the best thing for him.
He's a good keeper just having a bad time.
