Joe1973 Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 We are in agreement on this. I don't know why nobody points this out when they discuss team selection by the coaching staff (if they do, they clearly not doing anything about it). During the qualifiers he was making these saves, but that was 2 long years ago. Expectations are not for the goalie to have 10 spectacular saves a game. In big pressure games, i want my goalie to get that one big save that will keep us in game or keep our lead. And objectively analyzing this, unfortunately Milan is not there anymore.

His position on goals conceded looks like how someone would act if trying to look like a goalie saving a shot, not like a goalie actually trying to save the shot (I know this probably makes no sense). It's like he throws his body generally in a direction, but has no conviction, intent, or ability to actually get a piece of it on the ball. The number of balls that just go basically right through him or mere inches away from him are wild. The first goal was so odd, shot right past 3 feet off the ground and he does an arms up kick motion. He made no saves this series, his distribution is garbage. Why are we not moving on? costarg and jhoops__ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narduch Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Borjan is still at least one of our top 2 keepers. Crepeau being the other. I haven't watched enough of LAFC to see if he has fully recovered InglewoodJack, RJB and Addona 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made 5 saves and got a clean sheet against VWC in game 3, saved a pen in game 1, couple other clean sheets earlier in the year too. Ideally our starter is above the MLS level but given our current pool, I’m comfortable going with Crepeau. dyslexic nam and narduch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don’t think LAFC brings him back in for the playoff run unless they are 100% confident in his abilities. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In these instances it’s usually the character that wins the job. Borjan is a legend because he is one of us. If he wasn’t in goal he would be a voyageur and he bleeds for this team. I’m not opposed to replacing him just as a little shakeup at this stage however. Corazon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Will play SK Sturm Graz in the Europa Conference League. I assume his red card means that he won't play in the first leg. johnyb, Corazon and narduch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) Winter training is over and Milan was back to his usual role in the Starting XI for Slovan Bratislava in a league match against MŠK Žilina. He had to be subbed out after colliding with a player. https://sport24.pluska.sk/futbal/slovensko/neprijemne-zabery-brankar-borjan-tvrdej-zrazke-bezvladny-okamzite-striedanie "Borjan sa vo výskoku zrazil s jedným zo žilinských hráčov a po tvrdom strete zostal bezvládne ležať na ihrisku. K Borjanovi okamžite došprintovali záchranári, ktorí opatrne naložili Kanaďana na nosítka. Borjan sa po minútach strachu zotavil a postavil naspäť na nohy, no aj napriek tomu ho tréner Weiss radšej vystriedal z ihriska a na jeho miesto nastúpil Martin Trnovský" Edited February 9 by Olympique_de_Marseille narduch, Obinna, Corazon and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Borjan didn't play in Slovan Bratislava's 4-1 win in the League today. He is making a gradual return and was doing "individual training" during the past week: https://www.skslovan.com/clanok11142-PREVIEW_SK_Slovan_Bratislava__FC_ViOn_Zlate_Moravce.htm Unnamed Trialist, narduch and PegCityCam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unnamed Trialist Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 He's started for Slovan in their Conference League match vs. Sturm Graz, they have a hard task trying to get back from the first leg, which as mentioned he did not play.
