Angus Gunn- A fraud stealing a living off of his name?

[cambridgeshire canary 6,823]

Now I'm not saying he was a massive waste of money and him being the only keeper in English top flight history to lose 9-0 twice in a season should have been a sign of his 'quality' as a keeper and that he makes McGovern look like Buffon..

 

BUT

[Midlands Yellow 4,085]

A sentimental signing just because his dad was excellent here a long time ago. There’s far better keepers going for free in the Championship and league one. 

[Capt. Pants 4,285]

He was a massive waste of money. We have better young keepers than him.

Another Webber wonder moment.

[Ken Hairy 3,781]

Just utter dross. I'd genuinely rather have his dad in goal, at his age now!!!

That’s a very good shout. Less agile these days but his rotund frame would at least block a lot of the goal.

Sat close to 'Portly' Bryan against the Gunners....and yep, he would definitely fill the goal.....

[Mello Yello 2,303]

If we'd taken our chances we could have won this game.....FACT!......

Thought I'd get that in before the Club apologist brigade do.....

It’s incredible that people take pot shots at our reserve keeper when the issues are clearly so much deeper and reside with our ownership and board structure. Incredible.

I think it's more the fact that a decent bit of the budget was spent on him, that could have gone elsewhere.

No one can say we deserved anything out of that drivel, if they do, they are watching the wrong sport

I agree Mark.  But who spent and signed off on that.  Webber is so far out of his depth it’s embarrassing, yet people are getting stuck into Gunn.

That does get lost on here. I have often failed to make a less than serious point because I forgot the apparently necessary emoji to explain the admittedly poor attempt at wit.

[The Bristol Nest 517]

And btw Cambridge, why be so unpleasant about our reserve keeper? Was this loss his fault?

[alex_ncfc 666]

Gunn is dreadful. A woeful keeper. 

Literally here because of his dad and because we are "a nice club" who seem to think we owe people a living. 

Was nothing special at championship level for us, got shown up massively at Prem level with Southampton and now we have blown 5 million quid on him. 

Sooner Krul is back the better. Genuinely hope Gunn isn't in line to replace him any time soon.

[corbs 147]

Thought he did OK second half. I wasn’t keen on his purchase though, but admittedly none of us expected Big Daniel B’s health problems.

[Ian 1,136]

Struggling to see him as any sort of improvement on McGovern given the last couple of performances.

[Danbury Yellow 126]

1. Pen - it’s a pen so not much chance.

2. Thought he should have saved it, looked like he had it covered but went under his hand.

3. Fizzed off the post through some players, nothing I think he could do, but the angle was so acute I do question it slightly. 

Decent double save second half - didn’t really have to do much after that. 

Distriubition accurate. 

What makes him him a waste of money?
