Vybzkartel 284 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I feel bad for him, it seems every goal we have conceded has been unstoppable except the Arsenal one I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Tomopointed out before, commanding the box in set piece situations is the one thing he doesn't have over Courtois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The zonal marking may be more concerning but it would certainly our cause in set piece situations if Kepa commands the box and claims the ball, whenever possible. Not that it has been a big issue but yeah... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it has been a big issue but yeah... Perhaps but again I don't think it was a clear opportunity for him to go for the ball. Was a poor goal to concede though, which is why I'm not sure if zonal marking is the long term solution, teams with runners from set pieces attacking the ball will always have the advantage on standing players.

Watch yesterday, the couple of times he tried claiming the ball at set pieces he ran into traffic and looked a bit shaky because he doesnt tower over everyone like Tibo who was 6ft5 I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Had already accepted we overpaid for him... panic buy. Already accepted that being shorter than courtois, he will not be as dominant in the air or high shorts (sturridge goal). but this performance against Tottenham got me scared... the first reminded me of sturridge, the second was as big as mistake as a gk can make in my book. Way too far and not even into the corner. Should have been a comfortable save. just hope he improves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second maybe you could excuse him given he was left un-sighted by Luiz? Even Luiz didn't really help the cause by turning away! But on the flip side and rather than just focusing on the negatives, he also made some really good saves. Certainly prevented Spurs from scoring more than 3!

Nope sorry that’s an excuse... second goal was terrible esp without any reaction. not really sure it matters that much after the ga e had been lost due to his two blunders. His teammates might have an argument that the game was lost very quickly which might have deflated them and put Tottenham in a very comfortable position with the big lead. yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first goal was not a blunder, other than shit man marking, and the second goal was all on Luiz for not blocking it. Kepa was our best player today.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Absolute no criticism of him at all Saturday. Was exposed because of how shit how defenders are, and had it not been for him this would of been more embarrassing than it was. He's at the bottom of the pecking order when it comes to slating people right now, there are players in this team right now performing like League One level, he isn't one of them.

Yep, only players playing up to level we have are literally Hazard, Kepa, Rudiger, Ampadu (but injuries and fucking Luiz force-in have fucked him) and up till recently, Jorginho. Kovacic and Barkley have had great games, but overall inconsistent. All the rest (yes Kante included, due to failure to adapt) have been not nearly good enough to even woeful (Luiz; Morata,Willian) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 This is the bizarro world thread where Kepa was flawless and Aurier destroyed alonso, against spurs...
