[RedDevil@84]

Has transformed our attack.

 

[Alemar]

Excellent clean sheet, impressive today

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

Best Turkish player on the pitch.

 

[lex talionis]

Looked really solid. Yes of course it was a stroll but his positioning, awareness and every touch of the ball was right on.

 

[Blood Mage]

More assured and composed than Onana has ever looked but the opposition was abysmal so you have to take that into account.

 

[Art]

I feel way more assured with him on goal than Onana. Would love for him to given a EL opportunity.

 

[NewGlory]

The best goalkeeper of the game, revolutionary beard

 

[Solius]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

Yea honestly he shouldn't be ahead of Tom Heaton.

 

[CannibalSpectre]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

Apparently Ten Hag didnt even acknowledge or introduce himself to him for two weeks after he signed

He’s as bad as the Turkish members on here said he was

 

[Zoo]

Good save in the second half

 

[RedDevil@84]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

Well, he was just there.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

Shaky for the goal but surely that save showed you he has something about him? Was one of the best saves of the season.

the only safe pair of hands from turkey that ten hag was interested in was a hair transplant surgeon.

Lacking confidence is not surprising when you have barely gotten any minutes, still managed some decent saves and really was never a ball playing GK so I won't criticise that aspect.

the last thing you’d want is for your backup goalkeeper to slot in seamlessly.

That’s why Romero was the best backup goalie you could wish for. It’s a difficult role to play.

 

[SER19]

Bizarre to see people complaining, we clearly needed a second keeper, he rarely plays and cost 4.3m - for a keeper who was fairly experienced and played internationally too, it was a measured transfer in an area we couldnt commit big money too. Tom Heaton is basically a goalkeeping coach at this stage and anybody suggesting he's a suitable number 2 is just making stuff up as they go along. Of course we'd like a btter number 2, but at the minute we just dont have money to spend on a player who might feature 2-3 times a season.

 

[FrankDrebin]

Understandably he was going to be abit wobbly as he hasn't played for,like, forever.

 

[arthurka]

Pretty decent, brilliant save.

 

[Plant0x84]

Conceded 2 unnecessary goals, nobody really cares

 

[Oranges038]

Pretty decent, brilliant save.

It was like that VDS one from Muamba for Bolton all those years ago.

He won't be troubling Onana any time soon.

 

[Utd heap]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

To play in games like tonight?

 

[NewGlory]

I really don’t understand why we bought him.

One of many strange Ten Hag-era acquisitions is the only explanation. He is clearly very average even for smaller leagues

To play in games like tonight?

But he shitted bed and cost us one goal, even in a game like tonight

 

[2 man midfield]

Didn’t we sell a very promising keeper in Vitek, to sign this guy for the same price?

 

[Von Mistelroum]

Only saw the highlights but he looked pretty poor in those.

 

[Jam]

Vitek is on loan.

Sold Kovar, but to be fair he’s 24 and probably thought he’d get a chance at Leverkusen’s first team. Wasn’t there talk of Hradecky getting sold before Kovar joined?

Thought he was fine, looked a bit nervous but his kicking isn't great.

 

[Judas]

He's looked out of his depth every time he's played, and its not a shock. I expect yet another new keeper in the summer.

That’s who I was thinking of. He must’ve asked to leave.

 

[ForeverRed1]

That’s the beauty of when you actually score a few goals. Players can make an error or two and afford to be human.

 

[dogwithabone]

Flapped for the first but didn’t stand much chance with the second.

 

[P-Nut]

For those saying that he was nervous, he did the splits half way through the second half whilst we were attacking. For no reason at all whilst the ball was at the other end of the pitch. He seemed to be having a lot of fun so I wouldn't say he was a bag of nerves. Most likely just a combination of not being a great keeper, and a bit rusty.

 

[Cutch]

He's looked out of his depth every time he's played, and its not a shock. I expect yet another new keeper in the summer.

I recall he looked competent against Newport to the point where people wanted Onana dropped after it. Only other game he has played for us was the 7-0 win v Barnsley. Can't imagine he did much wrong in that one

 

[Ish]

I think he should take this advice, do a makeover, change his name and re-apply for the managers position when it's open again!

 

[Carl]

Surprised to see him being criticised for the first. He came, and won, the ball and got it to what should have been a safer position. Isn't on him that the Leicester player had about a kilometer of space afforded to him by our defence.

The defending was extremely typical of United the last couple years. Didn't work hard enough to stop the cross and then abysmal marking in the area.

Agree. Ok he maybe could have caught it but he punched to edge of box.

 

[SER19]

People need a bit of a refresher of our long list of sub keepers from the last 30 years, I think.

 

[UpWithRivers]

His distribution was sht but thats probably because we are used to Onana now. Was like having De Gea back. But other that that he did nothing wrong. Dont fault him for the 2 goals and his save was outstanding.
