Great game. Didn't understand the criticism of him starting today. If he's going to be our no2 then he needs some actual gametime.
 
From the people that brought you Juanfield... Baymirates?

He was quite poor before the penalty and his kicking remained questionable to say the least but who cares. He absolutely carried us tonight, 2 incredible penalty saves and great saves for Rice's chances as well, especially for the header. 9/10.
 
It must be really hard to come into a handful of games a season and be expected to slot straight in. How can you replicate that level of intensity and physicality in training.

I’m always surprised people moan about Onana’s distribution. He’s very secure whether he’s passing long or short, we saw today what it’s like with a more limited keeper in that sense.

He’s definitely earned himself an FA cup run now.
 
Made some huge saves. Very pleased for the lad. If he could just play with the ball at his feet. Can we combine the best bits of him and Onana?
 
Well, I didn't see that coming.

Those two pen saves were brilliant. Neither were bad pens
Havertz's one wasn't good. Yes, it did went right towards the corner so I wouldn't call it extremely poor but it had so little power on it. And I'm not trying to downplay Bayindir's save there, it was outstanding. Still, since keepers are at such a disadvantage, both things can be true — his save was amazing, Havertz's kick was savable, which is a bad thing for a penalty to be.

Ødegaard's penalty was pretty good though, to save that one, especially considering the circumstances!
 
Bayindir was literally the best player in our squad tonight. He pulled off some super saves, he deserves to be man of the match.
 
I written him off after the mistake for Arsenal's goal but what a match afterwards. He's awful at playing with his feet but besides that it was a tremendous performance. Felt like nothing could get in after his penalty save.
 
At the very least, that performance should be a wake-up call that one or two more big mistakes or poor performances from Onana and we have a guy waiting behind him to step in.

Kicking issues aside, I thought he was very impressive today.
 
He was outstanding - perfect number 2 maybe

I'd disagree, it was right in the corner .. to reach it and tip it around they post was impressive
 
MotM for me. Unbelievable stuff. I will overlook the abysmal distribution.
 
Fantastic today. 2 penalty saves, was also close to other 3 penalties in the shoot-out, excellent save after Rice shot, also after a close header
 
9/10. It would've been 10/10 if he wasn't poor at distribution. But MotM definitely with those 2 big saves, 1 penalty saved during the game and one during the shootout. Can't ask for more.
 
Can't say I've previously particularly rated him, but he really stepped up today
 
Massive performance, especially after that game against Spurs. Repaid the manager's faith and deserves to keep starting in the cup.
 
Bosnich’esque with his kicking from the ground. How he’s gotten this far in his career and still can’t kick is mind boggling
 
Can’t knock him after saving 2 pens and generally looking pretty solid but his kick is awful, can’t believe how many times he lumped it out of play!

To be fair, I think he was aiming for Zirkzee all of the time who was right on the touchline each time.
 
Buzzing for him! I thought he was going to start crying tears of joy at th end!

Well done mate!
 
My man of the match for the 2 penalty saves, 2 other great saves from Rice and was generally steady under crosses.

However, he was poor in the lead up to the Arsenal goal, should have caught it or punched it out of the box. And there's no getting around it, his kicking is truly, truly shocking!

He deserves to stay in the team for the FA Cup games on the back of this performance, but I don't think he is a realistic option as a first team goalkeeper for the club.
