Willy Caballero

Issa upgrade on Begovic. 

[Jase 43,479]

Not sure if it was the change of keeper or just one of those games but good god, we looked so vulnerable every time a cross is floated into the box today. @Tomo definitely has a point when he said we look far more assured dealing with high balls when Courtois is in the side.

Courtois’ command of the box is world class, people don’t realise what we have there. How often are we actually threatened when high balls are in Tbo’s area? Very under appreciated aspect of his game. 

[Laylabelle 9,351]

He was hilarious what was he doing?! It's his runs out where he misses the ball and it leads to panic as there's no one in goal.

Is a good shot stopper but we are spoilt by the way Courtois handles the box.

It was really noticeable today. Caballero did made some vital saves, though

Reminds me of Almunia a little bit, which is okay for a number 2.

He's certainly a good option to have & a better PK saver than Thibo

[manpe 10,861]

He saved 1 penalty and people are talking as if he's some kind of specialist already.

[Unionjack 7,531]

I'm on the fence about him.

While hes not the reincarnation of Petre Cech and If he was of a similar standard and was a striker we would be more than happy I also dont see the vast difference of value or pay scale nether.

He has saved 10 out of 26 in his career in Spain and England not including shootouts (his shootout record in England is 4 saves out of 8, not sure about Spain). I strongly doubt there's another keeper with a better record than that.

Diego Alves with 24 saves out of 50 during his time in Spain.

I love Caballero (think he's a fucking nutter), but doesn't he just show how brilliant Courtois is at commanding the box!

Willy Caballero will be given a years contract extension at Chelsea.

 

Good news . Class goalkeeper .

Deserved. Been our best keeper this season

Absolutely embarrassing for the first and third goal and looked a bag or nerves all game.

That’s why I’ll never understand why people say Courtois is worse than him. Even though Tbo is having a pretty rough period, he ain’t conceding those. 

Even the second goal he should’ve come out for a lot earlier.

It's quite funny that fans moan about lack of ambition yet there's constant cries for average players to be regular starters. Remy, Caballero, Bats, Begovic, Cahill (before he actually became one), Schurrle, Moses (as a winger) last few years of the top of my head.
