[Mário César 819]

he is in a good moment and I think that is the better chance to sell him in the summer

I'm not going to sit here and pretend the keeper is to blame when our whole team got burned and didn't set up properly and he is left defending a 1 on 1... 

 

Could he? Maybe. Is he expected to? No. Those situations if the keeper does save, it is largely down to a bit of luck and getting the timing just right.

Wouldn’t say he’s necessarily made it any easier for the guy to score. But suppose there is always going to be a minority who will say he should do better for everything.  

I do suppose rather than blame a 100m+ player who may as well of not been there, doing his best “Jorginho impression” as people may want to put it, lets blame the GK who did everything right by coming out and trying to put the striker off.

Or rather than blame the managers kamikaze idea of leaving somebody in a position where they could be 1 v 1 at a corner also.

I suppose Kepa could have scored the chance Joao Felix hit the bar with the too so that’s his fault also?

C'mon, Kepa could as well leave the line and go for a cigarette break and it still would be hard to blame him for it.

You don't allow fast and lethal opponent to have a 1:1 situation from the middle of pitch and expect keeper to recover it. It would be a miracle if he did, it was fine he didn't.

Massive warning sign (as if we needed one) when they hit the post. Kepa did his usual shell shocked rooted to the spot act rather than actually fucking dive. 

So childish, it's what we did when we were 7 or 8 years old in goal

not long ago we had Cech and Courtois, how the standards of GK have dropped

Cech and Cuntois were long ago now

Snake has been with Real for 5 seasons now (and he played the same amount of games for Atleti as he did with us, and started more for them, lol)

Cech was last our starter 9 years ago

Fuck was this clown doing for the Skipp goal? Absolutely shite 

[Vegetable 790]

We are coming back to the place we've been before - with shoddy defense, Kepa's confidence is ruined and more goals are coming in and errors made, further ruining his confidence and performance. Huge advantage of Mendy is that he seems way more stable mentally. 

And let's not forget part of this howler and Kepa getting frozen is Enzo, who is apparently starting to consider himself Mbappe CEO and director executive of CFC, taking the ball from Kepa and passing it to Tottenham's player. 

[Thor 2,160]

Due to his history here and rocky times - he will never get his fair praise.

He has his moments, like any keeper - but he has been solid. I'd get moving him on, but aside from high corners, he is rock solid. He is a fantastic shot stopper.

Credit where its due. Has quietly had good games in the last few weeks

[Magic Lamps 11,460]

We might actually be able to shift him 

still think his insane wages are what will stop anyone taking him off our hands but we should at least try

I don't think we will try to shift him if Potter has any say.

I know but one can still hope we are rid of both after summer 

[Johnnyeye 7,415]

very weak GK, still can’t believe the club paid 70 million pounds for him in 2018, fucking pathetic.

You'd think he'd justify 70 million by doing a few wrist strengthening exercises.

Infuriating the number of times he gets a full hand on shots only to let his limp fucking wrist let the ball in.

SELL this summer no matter how big a of a financial loss it is. The flapping, the inability to command his area, the letting in of soft goals. Just get rid.

We either give Mendy another shot or bring in a dominant, physically imposing keeper who can play the ball with his feet as well.
