I take Dougs point on deflected shots any keeper has to be good or lucky to save them by sticking a leg or hand out at the last second to make a great save, it's hard to see TH having any chance of doing this if he falls or dives to early as Alan Shearer pointed out in the World Cup game were he made many saves by doing this , but I feel with this exposure attackers now know TH is of that ilk - ie it is hard to save a shot/ deflection if you are on the floor sometimes on his back side to poke out a leg to save the ball- eg when we played Chelsea Chec saved with his feet from Lukarku as he was upright ie ready for anything.
I reiterated badly deflected shots are impossible to save, but slight deflections you can sometimes get if you are upright,and not diving too early which this season TH seems to do, on Sunday he was lying prostrate as the ball went in he had dived before the scoring shot had been hit!
It is ideal for RM to try Robles out to see if he can carry on his form over his 3 clean sheets, so we can sort out if we need to spend big in the summer on a Keeper or just spend less on another back up!
TH is way off form, and his extended contract is worrying if this form next season continues?
