Swindon Town v Mansfield Town Match Day Thread

[Legends-Lounge]

Honestly baffled by the sudden scapegoating of Brynn. Without his performances earlier in the season, we'd be in a relegation battle right now. To add to that, I can't think of any examples where a mistake by Brynn has cost us points this season.

Is he the perfect goalkeeper, of course not but we're playing in league two, as with any player at this level, they're going to have flaws or they wouldn't be in league 2.

At times I think some forget how young the age of 22 is in relation to maturity and dealing with pressure!

I think RHM is probably the only player whose looked better under Morris.

Brynn is a decent shot stopper no doubt, but in terms of what he brings to the defensive unit I'm really struggling. Says absolutely nothing. Totally mute all game. Weak body language. Doesn't listen to instructions from the bench. Looks like FBT is coaching him through every decision at times. Never comes through bodies for a ball. Rooted to his line. In the round he's a much worse keeper than Ward for me. He makes Wes, Vigouroux and the BFG look like Buffon, Neuer and Schmeichel.

Those three have shown experience isn't a must for a GK, but they all looked the real deal in most departments. Brynn looks good (at times) in one.

That said, probably one of our best players this year, which says more about what a catastrophe it has been than it does about him as a goalkeeper.

When was the last home game when we had zero corners?

Dead on.

I don't think he is as good as some of the other goalkeepers we have had in the past, but he is by no means the worst. He's far in excess of anything else we have available this season too. Putting one of the kids in would be suicide I think.

Let him carry on and bid farewell at the end of the year and watch from afar how his career progresses. I'd be more than happy to see him come back, but I think its unlikely.

We should drop him and play the bloke who wasn’t good enough for Sutton

[RobertT]

A couple of away comms have called out Brynn as being a bit wobbly in his box - I can sort of see it.  However, we have had a lot worse than him in recent times.  The problems with our squads are much bigger in other positions.

[Jimmy Quinn]

He's probably wobbly because of the shit defenders in front of him.

We can't as we can't sign him.

But, I would be happy enough to have Ward here next season. He's not a bad L2 keeper.

He reminds me of Phil Smith, a good backup who can play well for a few games, but if he’s our first choice you can forget promotion now.

There’s a reason he wasn’t wanted by Sutton

Maybe he's one of those players that needs someone good to battle against and bring the best out of him?
