According to Steve Madely yesterday, Daniels is not considered good enough as a back up.
That was my question
. Anyway it was only his opinion that Daniels won't be/isn't good enough as backup, although he's probably right. I think Daniels will be third choice keeper at best next season.
Well it's abit obvious, Boaz, considering we've just sold our number one to Bursapor. If you know it's a replacement for yourself then you partly have yourself for blame for not proving to be good enough. Allowing a goalkeeper's punt to bounce over your head certainly won't do yourself any favours.
In fairness it was a freak incident that 999 times out of 1000 wouldn't happened, and it probably could've happened to any keeper. It was very unfortunate to happen to happen to a keeper desperately trying to impress. Apart from that I think he's performed decently in pre-season thus far.
I think the problem with Myhill is that he seems average. Not 'average' as in bad but average as in ordinary. None of the areas of his game are below average standard, but he doesn't really excel in anything either. Take Carson for example, yes his temperament was questionable, he was error prone and his communication was below average, but on the otherhand his kicking and shotstopping was at times great. Every part of Myhill's game just seems 'OK' rather than either good or bad. When he had his spell in the starting 11 he did OK, didn't make any major errors, but he didn't really do anything extraordinary either.
I think he'd be decent backup to Foster, but he I don't think he's good enough to really challenge for a starting place.
EDIT: Well he's gone to Birmingham City.
