Stek has had one good game for is and that was against Man City, get shut, very poor yesterday. Much prefer Robles, but make no mistake a goalkeeper is a priority next season. Butland or Schmeichel will do for me, hopefully Butlands injury is behind him now.
 

Realistically , neither of our goalies are good enough for the top six, which I assume is the least we are aiming for. Hopefully they will both be replaced next season. Until then the discussion of which one of the two should be picked is entirely arbitrary, as neither makes that much of a difference to the outcome.
 
I was fuming when they nearly scored from that. Could have walked over and picked that ball up.

I was just wondering, why is he just stood there and watching it roll along...he should be sprinting over to get it.

I wasn't fuming...thought my stream was on slow motion at first then thought WTF

To be fair I said he was awful when we signed him....he has a touch of the pointless about him
 
tbf, we have 4 defenders to do the job of stopping them walking it in the goal as well. He was in a no win situation for that last goal.
Please talk me through the crucial 2nd goal in to comparison the stick posters have given Robles?
steks first save a normal shot he failed to collect - his kicking was poor - he does not control his box ! or organise his defenders his communication was poor yesterday!

I think we have not given Stek the stick as we already knew he wasn't good enough and is only seeing out the season. We will have a new keeper next season, just have to hope whoever plays the season out makes as few mistakes as possible.

Well I have looked at a few Forster from Southampton a poor season by his standards, schmiecal at Lecister average to say the least , and now aging, the Burnley keeper captain etc,
Jack Butland if we could get him would be the only one with potential to sign big - Pickford is another potential signing keep er - Robles as back up or we need two keepers signing if he wants to move on the Stek has to go not fit for purpose!

Not everyone is concerned but his size is a bit small for a keeper.
 
For a keeper who is 6' 6" he is useless in the air, he cannot catch a ball, he tends to knock the ball down and get it at the 2nd attempt. His punching is pretty poor and his positioning is at times suspect. He is good at saving penalties though !!
