Now that we have a new manager and fitness trainer (I have to wonder if he heard about Ghaly''s remarks at Birmingham) We need to fill the void left by hans Segars sacking. I do think that Robinson can recapture his old form if he had the right coaches behind him. I haven't been too impressed with our turn out of keepers, in fact over the past 6 years hardly any of them are playing football, apart from Burch who is in some league one club. Therefore who's available to fill the role, Ray Clemence springs to mind as he's the England goalkeeping coach, but then he hasn't done to well with Robinson or James for that matter. Peter Shilton is another one, in fact he said he can improve Robinson by concentrating on the basics and positioning, but he lacks experience. I wouldn't mind going for a Spanish goalkeeping coach, just based on the amount of top keepers they are producing Casillas, Reina, Valdes, Cañizares etc... Any suggestions?

Thank God we've still got Ricardo Moniz (not that he's going to help the keepers mind)

Shilts would be good. He learnt from Cloughie and its that spirit we could do with. He is also super-relaxed, which is something Robbo needs.

What's Erik The Viking up to now?

Did everyone notice Alnwick just kicking the ball around with our other subs at half time like he was just another outfield player? I think that was clear enough that we didn't have a goalkeeping coach.

It would, although as Gooners go he actually seems to be quite a decent sort. And he is regarded as one of the best keeping coaches around.

He probably is the best English GK coach, but he is still a Gooner and is about as likely to work for Tottenham as Jimmy Greaves making a comeback.

I think Suckling is just a part time solution until Juande brings in his own coach. I would expect a Spaniard.

Sucklings been our youth keeper coach for a while now - wonder what Patty Jennings has to say on the recent goings on? Isn't he head of keeper development or something pompous like that? :shrug:

I think Patty should lose the suit and pull on a tracksuit and take up the roll himself! :up:

Other than that, Ray Clemence couldn't be tempted with a hefty cheque, no? :shrug:

What i can't understand is how we ever had Hans Segars training Robbo in the first place. He was the Wimbledon keeper ffs. And then we all wonder why Robbo's turned shit. Duh!

thats just stupid, just because he was a crap player, dosnet mean he will make a crap coach. look at wenger, could hardly kick the ball and now hes one of if not the greatest coach, same said for mourinho.

Not really fussed over the name, if he's from ar*enal, if he was a poor keeper....I just hope we are trying to get the best goalkeeping coach available!!
