Did you not watch the Spurs game? And then him getting done at the near post the following game? Get your tongue out of arse you clown.
Oooo look at you with the fancy words.
Absolutely no way he should have been out on that. Look at where the ball is flicked & look at how many players are in that area. It’s the level at which one plays when one can understand that this cross was not collectible in any way. It would have been a massive mental error to have committed to the ball & to have left the goal exposed.
You simply don’t know what you’re talking about. A top hand save allows for a longer reach, a wider area to make the save, and an easier extension, plus the ability to land a bit softer. Yes, many saves can be made bottom hand due to the increased physical aspects of keepers today, to think that his save today was improper is just ignorant.
It’s shocking that you consider any of those fancy.
It seemed as though we were zonally marking as well (at least some of us were) which doesn’t lead itself to be able to handle runs in front of oneself (like what happened to Lindelöf). It could have been to plant bodies on the posts for exactly what happened; a defender on the back post could have come out to deal with the flick rather than being bodied away from the ball. This could have been on DDG or on the coaching staff.
That cross was one that should not be attempted to be claimed by a top keeper. The position has also much to do with being mentally aware & not overcommitting. DDG is not at fault for this goal; if the ball was lifted more to the middle / far post, then he should have claimed it. No top keeper is claiming a bear post flick that is eight plus yards from him. No top keeper leaves his that goal that exposed.
This is essentially why Maguire was signed but its not enough especially as we want to play from the back where DDG again is a liability
You’re making a bit of an ass of yourself repeating this idiocy. There were many fault for the goal, DDG’s culpability in it was very much on the low end.
You’re not wrong, but it also looks like some of the defenders were man, some were zone. That smacks of inconsistent coaching ahead of a potential play. Shit like this needs to get straightened out on the training ground.
Ah well that’s all the evidence I need then, he’s also came and claimed plenty, gk are either heroes or villains which sadly leads to terrible posters like you blaming them
It’s smacks of a team that just lost a defender then his replacement and left with 10 men
Yes, the ‘keepers’ on here are claiming exactly that.Ate we blaming him for the goal? Good God
Considering the ball was won by the southampton player, id say he did the right thing not taking a crazy risk at that stage of the game
Absolutely, it showed that we were mentally all over the place. Could DDG have helped to eliminate that confusion, yes. But, there should have been rote memorization in place for players to know where to go & to what to do. The whole corner sequence looks quite the abortion for anyone who knows what to look for / what they’re talking about.
Come on now, he was clearly daydreaming.
Yawn. Keep daydreaming. You seem fixated on the term.
This was clearly a poor choice on his part. Pogba fecked it up more, but don’t put your teammate in this position.
I actually blame DDG more if he didnt tell Pogba he had a man on when passing him the ball
You need to watch the corner clip again. There are far more culpable players for the goal than DDG. To think otherwise is laughable.
Great point. Even if it is redundant, you always need to tell your teammate whose back is to the opponent where his defender is & which way he can turn. Hopefully this was / is being done consistently. We might be able to hear such on a non-crowd noise clip.
Neville said in to the lead up to Martial’s goal. Get it wide from the kick out and then work it in to the midfield. Was it this season something similar happened Fred in Molineaux?
