Butler stating publicly that Campbell was his no 1 hasn’t helped matters, as now because of that he’s somewhat backed himself into a corner. Butler should have kept his mouth shut and when asked about the GK, he should have glossed over it and not said anything.
All he’s done has come out and publicly backed a player to be number one pick even though he’s nowhere near ready. I wish he thought more strategically at the time before coming out and speaking about Campbell before seeing first hand if he was actually even ready in pre season.
Bigtoe, nervous is an understatement, looks jittery as anything and generally looks unsure of himself against part time players in pretty meaningless matches. I wouldn’t want to see how he’d react in front of a bumper crowd on match day.
Looks bad enough this pre season. To put this into perspective, Campbell is the Tomi Ameobi of Goalkeepers. Not just isolated mistakes either, it’s match in match out and has gotten worse and worse as times gone on. Still got 5 pre season games yet to play.
It’s absolute madness that Butler has allowed us to be in this mess without even seeing is Campbell is even up to it first. Crazy really when you think about it.
