Polo7 3,496 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Thought he looked a little nervous and his throw caused us problems. Pulled off a few good saves. I expect better tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 No his distribution was terrible. Yea, he looked nervy when he had the ball to his feet too, Everton were putting him under so much pressure though. Polo7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 No his distribution was terrible.Yup, his distribution was very off today but he still had a decent game. His distribution (throws) are usually a lot better though. zolayes, Daniel1980 and Polo7 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Just a slight aberration on that Eto'o goal but more than made up for it with the astonishing save from Mirallas.Not to be picky, but in the Mirallas save (wasn't it Baines?) he made up for his own mistake that led to that very chance. He gave it away with a bad pass. Jase 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Not to be picky, but in the Mirallas save (wasn't it Baines?) he made up for his own mistake that led to that very chance. He gave it away with a bad pass. Harsh to put that down completely on him as it looked like him and Azpi had a breakdown in communication and the latter wasn't aware he'd been fed the ball.

Atholy 1,293 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNLMEwFHn8kTibo makes a perfect interpreter for Diego !To know he didn't speak a single word of Spanish when he left for Madrid 3 years ago!

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'm a goalkeeper so I'll defend his distribution. If you watch, Azpi moves away from the ball Thibaut bowls out. Mainly because he has no idea what's going on. So rather than blaming Thibaut, I'd say Azpi isn't paying enough attention in that move. He should always move to the ball, that's what I teach the kids I coach. He realised he was under pressure, panicked, and in the end it was Thibaut who rescued us with an incredible save. However I do agree Thibaut was perhaps a bit too eager and distributed almost too early, perhaps Azpi wasn't expecting the pass after two seasons with Cech, who holds the ball and calms things down. But that is a demonstration of Cech's experience (holding the ball and allowing the defence to reset) and Courtois' youthful exuberance. bababoom, Viper22 and Coop 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 someone said he looks hesitant coming for crosses SOMETHING I haven't seen at all . IMO he has been almost perfect in every game including pre season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, he's been a bit too eager at times. BlueLion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Thibo is an infant in goalkeeper years, it's scary to think how much better he can still become. Although I'm no expert, but when I see him play, I can't see any big faults, only minor ones from time to time. His reflexes and command of the area is as good as any. With accumulation of experience and top class coaching, he will become the best. Myself, zolayes and blu35_army 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
