TIM HOWARD THOUGH

[Skeleton Crew]

Does pushing the ball directly to opposition strikers in front of the goal count then? Like he's done about 200 times this season?

Hyperbole.

You are referring to the Tottenham game at the early season...Where were any of our defenders? If any keeper makes an initial save you have to expect some help from the other 10 in front of him. Doesnt matter if it were DeGea or Nueur or whomever...that second shot and many other moments should have been stopped by a non-lazy defender

It was from a piece highlighting that corners in general are a waste of time.

Agreed

Does anyone have the actual count of goals that came directly off a corner kick?
..or a next level where we made the clearance only to have the ball played back in?

any cross from any wing he is the same glued to his line!

And the Leicester game when he pushed a simple cross straight to Nugent. And the QPR game when he pushed a feeble effort straight to Zamora. And then there's the Palace game when he swallow dived straight through a weak cross and the ball landed on Campbell's head. Balls to this anyway, I've done this too many times before

Tim Howard is not good enough for where we, as a club should be aiming for.

He's easily on par with the Arsenal keepers and Mingolet but if you want keepers like DeGea, Courtois or Lloris you've got to pay big bucks and be consistently challenging for CL football.

Unfortunaley we can't afford those type of keepers at the minute and neither could we interest them at this time, besides the fact we've got bigger priorities for our inferior budget to other clubs.

Now this is just a poor attempt at a wind up. Please step up your game Dougie.

We don't ask for a world class keeper, we ask for a solid, competent one that doesn't cost us double figures worth of points in a season

36 now and isnt going to get any better only worse time to get rid plenty of young decent keepers out there worth a punt

Maybe if it's catching his crumbs, we should try his beard in goal instead next season.

 

[orly]

Yes. Yes he is. Glad you are in agreement!
