Not that I have anything against Etheridge, but how do others assess his communication skills with the rest of the back 4? Some keepers are vocal and are great organisers. Etheridge, despite many qualities, is a quiet keeper. Could it be worth trying Smithies, who has much more experience than Etheridge, just to see if he might be more able to help sort out our back 4? It would be harsh on Etheridge, without a doubt, I'm just considering options. Over to you all.
