Maarten Stekelenburg

[stretford blue]

Certainly been a pleasant surprise solid in everything he had to do today

 

[Durham Toffee]

Been boss so far. Long may it continue!

 

[flibbyflob]

Another solid display, if we don't get anyone in at least we know he is a significant upgrade on Howard of the last few years.

 

[Joey66]

Why waste money on Hart if it's only a loan deal anyway you could not drop this keeper commanded his box one great save to keep us in the points again!

 

[bilyaletdinov_]

Been the best goalkeeper in the league so far, making it very hard to want Joe Hart

 

[Kiwi]

I'm looking like prime vaulting beef if he keeps this up for the season. Didn't put a foot wrong

 

[zirc]

what an absolute bargain ol Steakburger has been. As a Holland fan I'm also happy to see him get back to the form that made him first choice for the national team.

 

[polish]

He's won me over, I don't want him to be replaced

 

[PeregrineT]

And maybe this is why Koeman pulled the plug on Hart. People keep saying "it cant last", but its now 4 games in and hes played fantastic in all of them.

Maybe our new GK coach is just that good.

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Another very solid display, so much so we can park the goal keeping issue until January if we want to.

 

[hktoffee]

Why was the last time you are confident when our keeper came out and caught the ball? Stek also made top saves in these three matches.

 

[Jags..class]

Another very solid display, so much so we can park the goal keeping issue until January if we want to.

We still need another keeper incase he get injured

 

[AaronTheBlue]

we need a top class keeper anyway to keep the pressure on for places. Players play better when they are at risk at losing their place.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Big part of that clean sheet today. Punches well and not just wildly. Directed a cross to Baines' feet with a punch/parry at one point

 

[Muggins]

Even in the one on ones he looks calm and composed.

His decision making has been pretty good. Great command of the box at set pieces, and looks like a real safe and experienced pair of hands.

Really impressed here.
