Can someone do a graphical analysis of goalies used (number of games) per season for the Nix. Last season must have been breaking a trend with Mossy playing so frequently.

Because he is better than any other kiwi keeper in NZ? He doesn't count as an import spot in case you thought that.
Is he good - has anyone seen him play?

I would say that Gould has seen Spoonley, Italiano and Williams. They signed Italiano. Should that answer the question?

On the Payne thing, I know it's a whole different level but I read Arsenal have a buy back option for Fabregas and while they are very strong in his position (Ozil, Cazorla, Ramsey, Wilshere, Risicky) surely you wouldn't pass up that option? I see that as a similar situation, just on a massively reduced scale.

two world class (no joke) saves in last game v Amicale, 1) penalty save by diving to foot of right hand post, 2) saving screamer to top right.

Spectacular saves are, paradoxically, the easier part of goalkeeping. What's his defence-organisation and ball-distribution like? Does he tend to catch or punch at corners, or miss them altogether?
(It's odd because my current coach doesn't want me organising the defence. He says "worry about the 6 yard box, I'll yell at them in the 18 yard box." Oooo-kay.)

The pen was outstanding - strong left hand knocking the ball out from just inside the post. The other save was hit from outside the box and was going top left - i'd suggest his positioning is exactly what allowed him to make the save - many keepers would have been caught flat footed.

Italiano is an Ozzie not a foreigner so doesn't take up an import spot

It also says Hicks was our 4th best player, and the only player worse than Boxall was Krishna. Hmmmm.....

Yes, I realised that after I posted the comment but it was too late - not sure how I can live with myself now :-)
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

Don't worry. I said Smeltz was a foreigner in another thread.

It would be interesting to see how they break that down. I think Hicks is actually a very good player. He does his core job well which is distributing the ball. It's alot of other things which let him down and are harder to measure.

His short passing game is very good, his long passing game is not great and he needs to work on that - and if you watch closelt he is very one footed. I still think he could do with being a bit more direct. I don't think we've got his best position sorted yet - I think he didn't have a great season last year so he needs to improve to get re-signed

Having seen them both (often) I'd say two-footed Burfoot is the better player.

Steven Reid is on WBA's released players list, he is mates with Ifill and was an awesome box to box midfielder at Rovers. Injuries have hurt his career and he was playing at RB for WBA I think. Still maybe worth a look.

QPR and a few other clubs are looking at him at the moment.
