Right off the top of my head I remember Asmir pulling off world-class save after save in the game at City (for example, that Agüero shot in the beginning of the game where he had to go down low in a split second after Agüero had turned one of our abysmal CBs). If it wasn't for him we would have lost 7:0 or 8:0 that day. This is in no way an attempt to claim that Begovic is world-class in general but he has those games in him, too. His consistency to give you at least 7/10 performances in 90% of cases puts him near that elite tier of GKs for sure IMO.

Young players usually ACTUALLY LEARN from their mistakes. Courtois has been doing the same shit for weeks now. The world's a lot greyer than what you imply.

Which is basically what he has been doing lately; the nutshell-kind-of-thing. A few good saves here and there only to fuck it up in the end and the worrying thing is he has been conceding goals the same way on almost ALL occasions for which he has been criticised during the past few weeks. There's simply no excuse for that.

Why does Antonio look like a bird took a shit on his head?

We haven't been completely shit so that's an improvement

I don't see him going back to Necoclí, Columbia,.

Let's not act like he doesn't deserve it When you're winding up people all the time yourself it's simply bound to happen that you'll get a taste of your own medicine. From the "new generation" Costa's one of only a few players I can actually "bond" with but the fact that he can't go 3-4 games in a row without getting involved in non-football stuff on the pitch is even worrying to me. The guy's 27, at what point does he calm down?

I know that when I play football or floorball I never even talk to my opponents. I'm simply to focussed to care about anything else than trying to win. There's different kinds of people out there, obviously, so it's just the same argument as the "who should be captain thing" thing - people love when they can see things. Be it running around chasing players or shouting instructions to teammates, we're just "sight animals". We rely so much on our eyesight that anything we can't see and which we think we should be able to see automatically makes us doubt that particular thing.

Nobody's speaking about goals he would have conceded anyway. We're talking about situations which should NEVER result in goals. It started last year with Thiago Silva's header and it's been the case with him throughout this whole season.

Of course him punching the ball into the middle of the 18-yard box is the fault of our defenders. Couldn't make this stuff up

Same ol', same ol'. Plays a good game but as per usual fucks up badly which, as we know, costs the most.

Matic, Mikel, AND Oscar?! Oh ffs, this is why we can't have nice things

They'd get fucking slaughtered out there week in week out.

How about 2009? He was outstanding in boths legs vs Barcelona, specially in our home game. Or how about the away game in Madrid in 2013? You don't need to play the ignorant here. Just because we haven't had many big games lately or because he wasn't used in some games doesnt mean he hasn't shown that he is reliable when played.

If there's anything you can't blame Mikel for it's turning up in big games. He's done it all the time.

Bhahaha, Arsenal playing on the counter today get scored on after a counter attack. They really are shit at everything

Why Oscar is taking PKs for us I will never understand

We just got scored on by a guy of whose name we didn't even know that it existed before today

Cahill gotta retire here and now. That's the rule

I don't want any homophobic assholes at this club, god knows we have enough problems already

GOAT

That 2nd goal was a pretty poor one to concede; he basically did everything wrong there. I'd love to hear Alex's expertise analysis, though.

List of things it took to get this club's best LB games: Mourinho to get fired CB #1 to tear his ACL CB #2 to injure his hamstring Natural RB to move to RB RB to move to CB
