Joel Robles

[Rook]

My only despair is that this was an easily winnable game despite the circumstances. Lukaku is exactly the type of player a high line doesn't want to deal with. Give him opportunities and I guarantee we win this game. Robles took that chance away from us as well as poor play from Gana, Barry, Schneids, Williams and Mori. Still- Tottenham should have won and they did. Not surprised.

I don't think it was easily winnable though. Spurs were very good today.

Should have save the first, completely flat footed. Something that Howard used to get ridiculed for.

Second was definitely his fault, just no need to put your team mates under that pressure, especially against a team like spurs

 

[Moomin]

Told you all you would turn on him.

He had a bad game, but he deserves a second chance.

He looks good when he has nothing to do. I hope for his sake that his recent performances haven't been based on a house of cards and we are not going to find out his true form soon.

Pickford is the one, Five years younger and already played more first team games. Get him now at a decent price before it inflates and keep the Spanish Bobby Mimms for a laugh

Spot on

I'm sick of brainless decisions, we had it last season with stones and Howard.

Kane would give many keepers a hard time. Did make some good stops but could have done more and should not have rolled that ball out for their second.

Their keeper let 2 in debate that?
He had nothing to do,Robles was under siege for 95 percent of the game!

This is the Robles thread not the Loris thread mate.

Transfer windows closed mate.

The one we're Ghana let him run into space , and the pathetic Barry turned side on blocking his view to let the shot come in you mean?

Yea. Barry played his part but it was 30 something yards away I don't expect it to go in in such manner. Still, not blaming him on the first but the second goal maybe.

I am not blaming him actually but he better learn. Koeman also.

 

[Rook]

He's not at De Gea level but personally would have Lloris above any other keeper in the league other than perhaps Courtois.

Fair point about Liverpool game but Joel's been in goal for other teams in the top 6 and not made similar ricks, just think it too early to write him off as a bottler in big games, especially as he has yet to have a full season as the #1.

What do Lloris and Courtois have in common. The 2 best back lines in the prem.

Joel and even Steleback (who was arguably our player of the month to start the season) have been better than expected. Goalkeeping was supposed to be a major weakness but while not spectacular has been solid.

Hence my last statement. It is still a game where Lukaku makes all the difference. We couldn't give him enough service and tactically we were awful today.

It's a keeping thread other keepers have been mentioned !
Timmy, Pickford Steck ?

 

[ilikecheese]

Had a stinker.

I'm the summer, he's only going to get better.

...mixed bag today, I suppose he was due a mistake but he also pulled off a couple of fine saves when one-on-one with Kane.
