Tim Howard

[flibbyflob]

Been crap all season bar the Wolfsburg home game. Though I think we need a centre half more as without Stones we look awful there with Distin or Alcatraz playing.

 

[toffeejack]

He's not good enough anymore, he had a purple patch towards the end of last season and the world cup but since then its been back to gash

he was good last season, but it was a one-off, he was pretty average for the couple of seasons before. southall was a great keeper, but he's smoking glue with his comments about howard.

 

[EFCPaul]

Americans can have their love-in with him all they like, he's not consistent enough and he needs replacing with someone younger, braver and faster.

If Beckham's new Miami team coming sniffing with a decent offer then send him back home and let him pack Distin in his suitcase.

Seriously though, how many goals has he cost us, abar 10.

He has his little runs of consistency but when he does make a mistake it ends up always costing a goal



Not cool bro, not cool

 

[RFUS]

It's not his fault that almost all of the team had zero fight and zero ideas, but that mistake was the turning point. We looked like we might go on to hammer them until he managed to spill their first shot -- the mother of all pearollers -- into the path of Eriksen of all people. Shocking.

Ive defended him all season but his performances are are really coming to the surface now.

Joel, your time has come




Forza da Robles

Lloris was superb today, that (and their constant ten men behind the ball) won them that game; epitomises how important a keeper can be

 

[IRO1977]

Unfortunately the thought of seeing Robles' terrified face between the posts fills me with just as much dread. Get Cech in

 

[daz4matty]

He is past it and why he dives before the ball has been kicked dumbfounds me

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Needs to do a Jagielka to win me around now

 

[toffeejack]

Unfortunately the thought of seeing Robles' terrified face between the posts fills me with just as much dread. Get Cech in

i just think to myself, he can't be any worse.

 

[MartSlinger]

Whens Robles ever had a run in the team? He hasn't. He had one at Wigan and looked decent. Too many times Howard is allowed to cost us goals and not get punished for it. I said drop him earlier in the Season, and im saying it again, drop him.
He's done. New goalkeeper in Jan please so this fart can [Poor language removed] off to the MLS.

 

[ah11984]

Too. Many. Mistakes.

All you ask for in a keeper is to cut the errors down to a minimum.

Since his wonder game in the World cup for the USA a certain Alan shearer pointed that out diving low down before the ball was kicked - two bad mistakes by him today - the first shot had no power he should have punched it away towards the corner flag - the 2nd goal he was on his way down to his backside when he was beaten from the near post angled shot!
Chech on a free in Jan would be a good move!
