Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 it can happne. last two games weconceded the opener bc of his needless rushing out. absolutely hate the tendencies from goalkeepers to come out when the striker is actually moving away from goalย but i guess it is far easier to estmate the distances from tv than in person.

But did he need to come out for the one today? Silva/Zouma was practically there to deal with it.ย Mendy has been brilliant for us but we can't be having brainfart moments like this all of a sudden.

Ironically our best first choice keeper with penalties in the modern era has been Kepa hmm you have a point, bring Kepa just for penalty shootouts ย Tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killer1257 3,282 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Snake was also not great at sweeping. Not every GK is perfect. Cech had his flaws too.If we go to penalty shootouts, it is our own mistake for letting it happen Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today's is even worst than last week's!ย since he is a late bloomer, i think he can work this out of his game or he can be asked to play a safer sweeper job for a while.ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I want to blame him but there 7-8 other lazy bastards in front of him yesterday that deserve calling out. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only inside the box and yesterday's mistake was just pure stupid. He really didn't need to come out at all when there was one defender there to deal with the danger! It's more of just brainfart decision making than anything else. It's 2 errors now in 2 consecutive league games. This better not become a thing.

Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk That's the thing. We can't control everything in a cup game. May need to win via a penalty shootout sometimes. It's Bayern's problem that they fucked up but that and the shootout gave us arguably the best night of our lives as Chelsea fans. killer1257 and Johnnyeye 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 And not forgetting the free kick, no top hand, higher hand attacking the ball but his lower left.

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Let's be real, the bar was relatively low for him.ย Still see Mendy as a good keeper. We all knew his weaknesses before we signed him (Sweeping/penalties) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,181 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 not at all sold on Mendy for anything other than our new backup he has far too many unfixable weaknesses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killer1257 3,282 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Did I miss something? LolXhaka and Saka scored world class goals nad around 86% of penaldos go in anyway.He made a mistake when he passed it to Laca, but at least he saved it. Also made other saves.Typical TC overreaction. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Beigl, Vegetable and Strike 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
