Keepers can take whole seasons to find their feet, just look at De Gea. He's not suddenly going to look confident after 2 games. I said this ages ago, it wont be till RM sticks with him week in, week out we will see if he's actually good enough for Everton

I wasn't slagging him off mate, it was totally understandable. Even if he cost us 5 goals yesterday I would like him to have a run of games. Like you said, De Gea looked a dreadful keeper but they have persisted with him and he's probably won Utd 10 points already this season. Robles showed his natural ability with the save he made early 2nd half. He just needs to catch the bloody round thing when crosses come in and that will make me feel a whole lot better ;)
 
From my limited knowledge of goalkeeping they seem to punch the ball rather than catch it more frequently when they are low on confidence which I also mentioned in my original post.

1000 minutes is a trivial amount for a goalkeeper, especially since none of it has been in consecutive games. Given Howard's performances this season, including punches out that have resulted in a goal like against Spurs, just not sure why you are so keen to complain about Robles.

he played 246 mins in 1 week last season (156 consecutively during which he made one of his worst mistakes from Rameires)

1000 mins is a trivial amount? coincidentally its about the amount of time Rayo played him before they realised he was jarg

So because he played one and half games together a year ago he should now be perfect in his first league start since?

As I said, I have my doubts on him but with the sort of standard you are suggesting no young goalkeeper would ever make it.
 


Need to buy/sign on loan a new goalkeeper to go straight into team as soon as the window opens.

Robles is simply not good enough and it will be a MAJOR mistake to play him in January.

I fear Martinez will stick with him though.
