Krul has now been given the shirt (mainly I think because of his experience, character and ability to organise the defence rather than being 'the better goal keeper'..if that makes sense?). But if he does start making stupid mistakes then he gets dropped and Gunn is given another go to fully claim the No1 shirt for good.

Pyro Pete 1,897 Posted February 3, 2023 Like others have said, Krul is probably being given the nod based on what he brings to the team as a more experienced voice in the dressing room and on the pitch. Gunn can feel pretty hard done by, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Before Cov scored their two goals, Krul seemed to be trying his hardest to gift them a goal with sloppy passing, it happened twice but he got away with it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Positive_Canary 27 Posted February 3, 2023 This debate really does split the fans. Gunn has done very little wrong and doesn't seem to have the severe errors caused by a lack in concentration which Krul has. Krul always looks unsure with the ball at his feet too. Maybe the selection is based on off the field enthusiasm and his reputation around penalty saves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midlands Yellow 3,995 Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) The jury is split at 50/50, anybody’s guess which way this poll will go. If we get promoted it might be wise to play both. Edited February 3, 2023 by Midlands Yellow 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,609 Posted February 3, 2023 I voted Krul simply as Wagner seems to see it that way and it has worked so far. My one certainty though is that if we go up we'll need a new keeper- I don't think either are Premier League level. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All the Germans 1,078 Posted February 3, 2023 Both are good keepers and I think there's very little in it, but, I'd choose Gunn because he is much better with his feet and less likely to have "a moment". 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulfotto 635 Posted February 3, 2023 For a championship team Gunn or Krul is frankly an embarrassment of riches. Whatever division we are in next season we probably need to sort out this out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the selection is based on off the field enthusiasm and his reputation around penalty saves. Krul has a big reputation for saving them but have seen Angus save a few in his time here so thought I would look up the numbers. This doesn't include shootouts as couldn't find that data.  Career Tim Krul faced 65 and saved 10. Angus Gunn faced 27 saved 8.  Norwich Career Tim Krul faced 23 saved 7. Angus Gunn faced 14 and saved 6. Looks like Angus is much better at facing down penalties based on those numbers. Would be interested to see with shootouts included. Personally have been in the Angus camp since last season. Krul is liekable and a massive personality but not the keeper he once was and his kicking is so poor these days.

canarybubbles 1,923 Posted February 3, 2023 I haven't voted because I'm happy to go with whatever Wagner decides on this one. It's too close to call and from what I've seen so far, I trust him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gordon Bennett 786 Posted February 3, 2023 There is a fag paper between them in reality. Krul just about gets the nod because of his experience but if Wagner had stuck with Gunn as the incumbent I wouldn't have complained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,562 Posted February 4, 2023 Gunn, as said when this question was raised at the time Wagner chose Krul, and not just because of the latter's habit of throwing the game away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
