Joel Robles

[LAToffee]

I take it your talking about our team?

Robles was interviewed two days before the game and he was talking the big man that we would "kill them." (Head in hands)

 

[ijjysmith]

Have you got the Chelsea video away?
He has been dropped for a reason!

That's not what you said mate. You said he never dives.

That's ridiculous.

We basically single handedly won us that point at City. Well 2 handedly so to speak. Some unreal saves there.

He point being he may well have done better than Robles with those goals today. The problem being he probably would have bought his own brand of crapness in instead.

We need a new keeper. 2 probably.

Stek doesn't let Origi's in or either of Kane's vs Spurs. Fact of the matter is last 4 games Joel has had many bad moments and a small amount of good ones

Talk me trough the Chelsea away game or UNT at home when he ran out that far he let in a sitter all keepers blunder he is a Fulham reject playing for his country he let one go under him from pogba from 35 yards!

He started off well, and went downhill hence he got dropped!

He forgot to say we would put a white flag up!
Positive talk before a game is not a bad thing!

So you'd drop Robles after today?

 

[mkrudden]

This lad is a huge improvement on Howard and a slight improvement on Stek.

The standard of all 3 in the last 2 years though is beneath where we want to be.

Just sign Joe Hart for Christ sake. He'd cost peanuts and is a quality goalkeeper.

It is mate,but if you talk the talk you have got to be able to walk the walk.

That's rubbish, and you know it the team play crap so let's blame the keeper hey?
One goal today the third he was at fault for the rest no!

At this stage, we have been burned by this tactic so many times, I think a silent steely determination would be a better approach. No interviews and let's do our talking on the pitch. If you have to say anything, say that. A cliche but until they show they are fit to wear the shirt against this lot, shut it.

No one goal let in was his fault his record of clean sheets is better than Steks!

@Joey66

Yes he started off well then got dropped!

Jags was shouting we would win for Shamus ?

I half agree with you Joey.

He wasn't solely to blame for any of the goals I don't think.

But this is the Joel Robles thread so focus is on him.

On the first he was way way way out of position. Even the uneducated eye can see by the weird way he tried to run after the ball.

The second. A lot of keepers have been caught out by those types. But he did show too much of that side and it was bloody obvious that's were the little Brazilian gobshite was going to go for.

The third. Well that speaks for itself. It was weird. Weird goalkeeping.

But yes, the defence was all over the shop. But that's when you want your keeper to make a difference.
