Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 He has been prone to a mistake or few since his return. I would seriously think of bring Begovic back into the starting XI if things don't improveTibos major weakness was always his handling. He almost never catches a ball and often parries it back into the danger area. Really should do better with such soft headers from far out. But Azpi, who has endured some torrid 2weeks, might have been a bit closer to Borini, even though that is a bit harsh. BlueLion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the goal today his view was blocked, getting a hand at the ball was the max he could do for me. Don't forget to mention he also has done some miraculous saves in his first games already.

It can be expected after being out for a period of time, so I hope they disappear from his game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinineUltra 1,170 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 In terms of potential and current abilities, he is the only real world class player we have. He is one of the best GKs atm and will become the best in the near future. Essien19 and Special 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacika 188 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 What I don't understand is how he kicks almost every ball into a throw...It is fascinating.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Brilliant save which for me makes him our MOTM which wasn't particularly hard to achieve today. That said, his kicking was particularly shit. LDN Blue, DYC. and Amblève. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCM4PR3Z 411 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 He needs to work at his footballing skills, but for a goalkeeper it is the part that is the least important. It is a hundred times worse if you are DDG and your footballing skills and reflexes are excellent, but you still need to work at all the other aspects of your game.I do hope that he can train as a field player at least once a week from now on, it would be a shame if that never improved.Truely extraordinary save again though that kept the clean sheet.

Putting my goalkeeper coaching hat on, I'll tell you footwork is the most important thing in a goalkeeper's repertoire considering 85% of what a goalkeeper does is to distribute the ball.Agreed about his save, though. You can't coach that. Totally instinctive. Amblève., Special, DYC. and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 How was Cudicini's kicking ?As I think we tend to have players with absolutely shit distribution - Cech, Hilario, Turnbull, Begovic and Courtois are all worth each other.
