Stats 7,142 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Playing with the ball at his feet is an obvious weakness which we have seen for time and needs work on, but probably something that is hard to coach a player. If they are just not technically gifted, then yeah but saying that there are goalkeepers that have improved with ball at their feet. Another concern is his hesitation in coming out of goal. He is rooted way to deep and the goalkeepers at the best club now regularly come of their line to clear a ball. He puts us in danger way too much. Top keeper but yes a lot of work needs to be done with the way we are looking to play. Because the ability to play out from the back is key to majority of top teams now. Arsenal having Ramsdale has improved them big time, City with Ederson is obvious.  Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 It happens even to the best goalies. Manuel Neuer had quite a few very costly errors vs Real madrid and Liverpool in the last 5 years in the CL as well. the timing could not have been more unfortunate ofc. He has never been good with his feet but been decent enough for 90% of games. Now he has had his confidence shot maybe so that percentage goes down a bit. I do not see him improving this, given he is 30. But it also means we should keep our eyes open for a long term successor in the coming years if we want to continue playing a system that plays out from the back.

I think it's beyond an error where Mendy is concerned. His ability with the ball is atrocious, and he's keen to hold onto the ball for far too long. Whether we like it or not, we have to take the good with the bad.

Blue Armour 4,439 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Drop him for Kepa. Serious. Mendy is the better keeper but he is playing below par. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 2,711 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 For the bad goal he did give up against Leicester, he saved a bunch. There were at least two or three chances Leicester had afterwards that should have been goals that he stopped. I don't think he is to blame for the first goal against Southampton today either. I understand blame is being throw everywhere at this point, and no, he hasn't been great, but he isn't the problem. He has absolutely no support from his outfield players at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegetable 830 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) He lacks some agility to compensate for his size, but we all knew this from very first day. Can't really blame him today, as first he was effed up by our own defenders in some crazy judo shitshow and second time by our very own Jorghi. At least he was sober enough to play 10x more dead than he actually was when kicked by Bowen. However due to way we defend (or play in general), fans who are easy to sink players in shit and mistakes he made I'm afraid he is going the very same road to loosing any confidence that Kepa did.

Clockwork 1,794 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I think Kepa will benefit a lot under Potter, no way Potter will tolerate a keeper like Mendy who is so poor on the ball and building from the back. Kepa just needs to be solid. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
