Why haven't these basic goalkeeping attributes been addressed by the coaching staff.
Johnstone does not rate anywhere in the top keepers in this league. Ok he occasionally flies around and pushes one round the post, but he definitely lacks basic positional play, indeed there are better keepers in the lower levels. God help him if we go up l
Because basic keeping now is all about shot stopping and distribution and as a club we seem to have subscribed to that completely.
Do I agree? No. Does it matter if I do or not? No. Bilic does agree and he rates Johnstone very highly it seems.
