STAN 29 Posted October 18, 2015 Am I only one who thinks he''s a shadow of his former self? Struggles to get down on the ground, looks shaky every time he has to leave his line, useless 1 on 1, and his distribution is poor, even his shot stopping is weak! Looks more and more like a Championship keeper every week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iron_stan 0 Posted October 18, 2015 dont be a doughnut cant really blame the guy considering the back 4 hes got in front of him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stylish Canary 0 Posted October 18, 2015 He just can''t defend the across goal shotCan''t see the harm in giving Rudd a run out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STAN 29 Posted October 18, 2015 Personally I like to see a keeper that breathes confidence. Ruddy spends most of his time looking like a new born giraffe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clint 221 Posted October 18, 2015 This is chicken and egg. Arguably the defence could be shaky because they''re not confident of what they got behind them. Or it could be vice versa.But what I do know is that I very rarely see Ruddy make a save anymore, let alone a top class one. However, I do see him concede a lot of goals that IMO other top keepers would save or at least get beaten less easily.Rudd will presumably play against Everton in the cup so perhaps that''s his chance to make his claim.

Bomber 48 Posted October 18, 2015 Must admit I don''t have any confidence in him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rock bus 851 Posted October 18, 2015 Not really sure he can be blamed but certainly poor with the second goal.Is Rudd bet though?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STAN 29 Posted October 18, 2015 Everytime i''ve seen Rudd play he has impressed me to be fair! Definitely a lot more alert and agile than Ruddy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeattleCanary 0 Posted October 18, 2015 I think the Ruddy of the 2012/2013 season pre injury was class. Sadly he never really returned. I too have lost confidence in him. Great save 1 on 1 with Coutinho the other week but that''s about it. Too many soft goals in recent memory, and Rudd surely is due his chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 5,508 Posted October 18, 2015 I watched Rudd a few times when he was out on loan. Think he is a class proposition. Would not argue if he got a chance. John does look more and more suspect. Then every now and then he has a blinder. Cannot help being a goalie though with our defence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginja 26 Posted October 18, 2015 Have to agree with OP, Ruddy is losing his form and Rudd has looked class recently, time for a change, Ruddy needs to know he isn''t guaranteed a spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith Scott 244 Posted October 18, 2015 The whole back 5 are a shambles. This could and should have been addressed in the transfer window, it wasn''t and there''s every chance it will cost us dearly. Still when anyone dared point this out at the time they were accused of being whingers by the usual suspects......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
