Shouldn't you actually read people's comments before calling them nonsense? I was talking about aerial ball, and never once mentioned the equaliser, which to my observation wasn't an aerial ball.

Sometimes they are easy catches for the goalkeeper, a few times it's like you say - calls for aerial ability by the goalie. Kepa is not as big as Courtois but do you think Mendy is better at those ?

The keeper is officially the only player allowed to catch the ball with fully stretched arms. He therefore has an advantage over any other player from both teams. I cannot see how defenders are supposed to pick up aerial balls over their keeper; using what organs? There are times when a keeper must stay put having decided he could not reach the ball. But Kepa was also getting this wrong as well last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Casimiro free kicks are normally taken care of by Thiago, without special organs ! If you say Kepa should stay put sometimes, it depends. Where is the ball going to ? Demonstrate with videos. Fact is the man is not as big as Courtois (2 m) or even Begovic (1.99 m). Kepa is 1.86 m while Mendy is 1.94 m. Cech is 1.94 m.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) Kepa had a psychological breakdown just like Greek legend Serafidis who passed away this year. Serafidis became a great goalkeeper and became a legend when the also legendary German coach Jene Csaknady took charge and tutored him.

Vytis33 1,287 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 If you're gonna come for the ball on set pieces fine but you can't whiff as much as he does. Living dangerously every time he does that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still think he disappeared too much, or just lacked any effort full game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with that stupid Harry Kane like move when he tried to back into Silva who was rising to head the ball. The cunt went onto foul him afterwards.
