Reaction to Ayden Duffy's 2007/8

Ayden Duffy came into the side following an injury to Alan Marriott and conceded within 3 minutes of being on the pitch, not the best start he could have possibly made. Duffy was apparantly playing with a back injury in his time between the sticks, meaning he has an excuse for not making an attempt to get to 6 of the 7 goals he conceded.

Ayden Duffy came into the side just minutes after Marriott had saved a penalty. Within 3 minutes of his debut and a trend began to happen...the trend being Duffy just watching the ball as it went into the net. Rumours were circulating that Duffy was playing with a back injury and this could explain why he only dived for 1 of the 7 goals that Lincoln conceded whilst he was between the sticks.

He positional sense is terrible, especially on free kick. The perfect example of this came against Wrexham when they scored their third. Duffy positioned the wall to cover the middle third of the goal, he covered his right hand side and left his left hand side completely open to a shot. It was probably the easiest free kick that Wes Baynes will ever score.

Now, I'm not saying that Duffy doesn't have potential. There was the rare occasion where Duffy showed promise but he'll never make a Football League goalkeeper unless he stops watching the shots and makes an effort to get to them.
