I think Ben Roberts, due to the fact Michel won't be 100% in confidence or fitness after a lengthy injury, and Roberts has played at the higher level. However they are both very able and excellent goalkeepers. It's a great problem for SC to have.

I would start with Roberts and give Kuipers half a dozen reserve games to get his kicking right and raise his confidence a bit.

I was impressed with Roberts last season in his brief spell - quick, confident, decent build for a keeper - and above all a player who WANTED to join us.

Let him start I say.

Has to be Roberts, very impressive when he was on loan and his distribution is very good
Kuipers fitness worrying so I think Roberts will start.

Definitely Roberts, at Woking tonight he looked well up for it and far more confident that Michel did.

Roberts for me better - better kicker and better distribution when throwing the ball out.

nice to see all the Ben Roberts fans out there, does anyone want to join the Ben Roberts fan club ?
 


I would start with Roberts. Kuipers clearly looked out of sorts at Crawley. He hasn't played since very early this year and it showed on Saturday. Needs a spell in the reserves to REALLY get back to full fitness I suspect.

Roberts for me too - really don't think FDM is 100% fit yet. He looked like he was hobbling a bit after a couple of kicks tonight.

Half a dozen games into the Season and Roberts will be undropable.

Couldn't agree more (apart from the spelling).

Roberts is a quality keeper and has a lot of experience. Kuipers can learn from him and enhance his game. Also the added bonus of a bit of competition will keep both of them on their toes.
