Lumley

[Shania]

A huge talent.

[corbray]

he's better than ingram that's for sure. he'll only get better in time

My only issue is Lumley is young, he will need time & he may make mistakes, Ingram is the back up ........ Ingram is terrible

[Mem]

Not sure how helpful it is to slate Ingram - he’s our player after all. Having said that Lumley is the better, more assured keeper and should be our number 1 without doubt

I understand your point however it’s simply stating the truth.

I would never vocally sl@g players off during a game

McClaren makes Ingram look much worse than he is. He put him behind a new back four that had hardly played together, asked everyone to play a new brand of football, based on possession and "play it out from the back" with players not suited for it (Lynch, Leistner, Scowen, Bidwell etc). We were terrible at playing tikki-takka just outside our own box and lost possession again and again in dangerous areas. To put an inexperienced goalkeeper (with less than a handful of Championship matches under his belt) in this situation is simply unfair. McClaren has to take the blame for this risky set up and he is responsible for Ingram's confidence now being record low.

I think there is a very decent keeper in there, but Ingram future now relies on the man-management and motivation skills of McClaren. He needs to be eased back.

I think Lumley will go on to be our first choice keeper for years and he has the potential to go very far, but I wouldn't give up the idea that Ingram is a good understudy.

Done a great job and tbh kept us in the game a fair few times. We've got a right $hit defence, really hope some someone/two come in on loan to help out.

A fair assessment, I think!!

Make him number one, send Ingram out on loan and get in an experienced keeper who is ok with being a back-up keeper for us.

[72bus]

was impressed with him v wigan , nice save in 1st half and looks the part , ingram's kicking is woeful

I agree

Or maybe Ingram just isn't as good as we think? To me he seems to be rather slow, can't kick a ball and can't organize his defense. McLaren's fault is picking him. Nothing else.

Or it cant be easy to replace Alex Smithies. Imagine the pressure...But i agree, Lumley looked more assured...

[Rangerod]

I was really impressed with his chutzpah! The he was commanding, shouting at his defenders to get in position, he scolded them when they did not do their job properly, he remonstrated with the ref like a veteran and wasted plenty of secs on the ground at the end of the game to gain us some time. These are all aspects of a mature keeper not a huge. Impressive. Loved his distribution too!

Ingram looks like a throw back keeper from the 90s. Most keepers nowadays are slim and agile where he is barrel chested and awkward
