Dean no Brill

I would suggest, as some others have already done, that this is not the time to drop your regular keeper.  

 

A couple of good saves during the week and he'll be just fine.

I blame meekings and his two mistakes (weak pass back & didn't just clear it) for the second goal not brill.

Dont think he should be dropped. We know he can do very well, especially when his defence are on form. And therein seems to be the problem. Maybe its time to get back to basics and start defending from the off.

Collum is a little shitebag of a ref.

Easiest player on the park to blame is the keeper after heavy defeats. Sadly he was let down by the majority of those in front of him. Those are the guys who should be looked at and dropping players is really detrimental to morale. He needs a good shut out on Wenesday then he'll feel better.

It is a worry but who kept his head in the semi final and shared positivity with all around him - on and off the pitch.

Meekings was terrible for those 1st 2 goals. Caught badly out of position for the 1st and put all the pressure on the keeper for the 2nd. True, Brill could have just kicked it out, but so could Meekings, instead of the backpass.
He had no chance with the penalty and little with the others. Only really one of 4 goals he can really be blamed for. The same with the Celtic game. But when you're getting peppered with shots with no real protection there's always the chance you might make one mistake.

Goalies are in the worst position for blame as 1 mistake can lead to a goal against so easily.

But Brill has been, well, brill' this season and 1 or 2 errors do not change this. He has been a great signing considering he was relatively unknown. Even the best make mistakes.

We've switched from a back four with two defensive midfielders to a back four with no defensive midfielders.  Hence, the heavy defeats.  It's not an unexplainable loss of form.
