TIM HOWARD THOUGH

[evertony]

The beard has concerned me. It's quite alarming. And it's not saved us a single point this season.

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

tons of people have poor starts. Jags had a poor start this year. Just pointing out he hasnt always been crap

There's poor starts and then there's playing crap until March.

 

[USABlue]

I would guess so

he or she has tons of EFC videos including the Bayern game in 1985 and other classic matches, player tributes to players such as Gray, Sharp, Southall, Sheedy, Dunc. hardly think they're some howard USMNTNTNTNTNTNTNT or whatever you all say fanboy

 

[MartSlinger]

Forza Robles.

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

How bout this then?

Dropped less clangers than usual last season.

 

[USABlue]

whole thread can be summed up by recency bias

Watch it again and honestly think to yourself, would the vast majority of Premier League keepers have made those saves?

The vast majority wouldn't have the reflexes to make many of those nor would they have been positioned the same. You're not giving credit for getting across his line quickly, getting out quickly to cut down the angles, getting up to make a double save rapidly.
0:47, 0:54, 0:57, 1:14 (most get rounded), 1:33, 1:44, 2:40, 4:34, 5:04,5:25 (unreal save), 5:38. None of these are standard.

I'll forgive him for throwing that City game at Goodison for us though

I'd argue that most Prem keepers should save pretty much all of those. Except 5:25, the Oxlade-Chamberlain one. I'll give you that one, that's a top drawer save

Haha, beaten at his near post by Aguero and a crap header by Dzeko.

Punching the ball into his own net against Chelsea was actually one of the worst things I've ever seen though. If Robles had done it Dougie and Joey would never forget it.

Wowsers.

Watch De Gea's video from last season, and Howard made more impressive (quantity and quality) saves than he did.

Nonsense though, I'm sorry. De Gea saves United so many points. Also, I bet you couldn't make a 5-minute long compilation of De Gea's howlers like you could with Howard

No one is questioning who the better keeper is. But you saying the saves in that video are normal is incorrect. By your logic, the saves De Gea makes are also normal, which they aren't.
