Tomo 21,751 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 mistakes are made but not when you are fighting for your life, and at that moment, qpr were fighting for their lives. i dont know how much that one point would have made a difference but you just never know in football.one game, 8 year old. then there are mistakes after mistakes. remember the goal in WC. he is just not worth it. there are much much better options out there. diego lopez definitely is one of them. brad freidel can be got for free. but green is definitely not the answer.I agree there are better options (Freidel isn't one tho, completely past his prime and number 3 at Spurs now) but I do believe he is a good keeper who had his reputation unfairly tarnished by that WC error, and even then he made a top save to prevent England from losing at the end.

didierforever 7,349 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Jesus stop moaning he's a backup a goalkeeping backup is very important. basically decides our fate in 2 domestic competitions. if we are playing soton/swansea/everton away in a league cup/fa cup match, this guy does not fill you up with confidence, does he.courtois is still young, had a minor blip this season and was replaced by cech for a couple of matches, would you even consider doing that if green was our 2nd GK. i definitely wont.

Stick an average keeper in our team, with Terry and Cahil playing well, and he will look World Class. I guess the Cuadrado signing has undermined some confidence in Jose, as up until then his signings were great. I have no doubt that when called upon Green will rise to the challenge, this is the twilight of his career, the last chance to win something - he will give 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I cannot believe people are seriously mentioning Friedel. He's 43. He's been a pundit on TV for 2 years now. He's 3rd choice at Sp*rs. He's retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar 441 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 When turnball was the backup goalkeeper, he cost many games...Hopefully, Green does not do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
