Tim Howard

[davids]

We need to be a bit more ruthless in our defending and RM needs to be more ruthless in his team selection.

It's 9th in the league. Pretty much on par with Joe Hart. It's not good enough, but it's not as bad as you're trying to make it.

I'm not trying to make it good or bad, it just seems bad to me. Surprised it's in the middle of the league, I would have though keepers generally conceded less often than 1 in 3 or 4 shots on their goal but I guess it's pretty common.

I don't need statistics to know that Tim Howard is dump though.

This is exactly it.

Stats may not show what people's eyes really should all see.

Stats tell us what our eyes can't see, though -- mainly how all of the other goalkeepers (who we don't get to see other than some highlights on MOTD and the occasional full match) compare. Howard has certainly looked bad quite often this season. The thing is, though, the statistics tell us that most of the other goalkeepers in the league have been just as bad.

he hasn't said much so far, more of a guest. Arlo White and Lee Dixon are the usual commentators

That's Tim Howard commentating on the match tonight. He's just been asked how Everton organise themselves at corners.

There's defo some truth there. It's not just our keeper doing mental things, this season especially.

But, there's always a but, I don't really care how other keepers are doing. I care how ours is.

Sure, we all do. We all want a better keeper. The thing is, though, that's a lot harder to get than most people think.

Imagine Howard analysing Cech or Hart if one of them makes a mistake.

Hilarious tv.

 

[ianefc]

He was asked by Dixon in the 11th minute 'in a game 10 minutes in are you wanting to have made a save by now? To get your eye in?' To which he replied 'you're still warming up at that point and organising your defence whilst reading the game'

 

[ijjysmith]

True again. All the keepers is want we have now chance of getting.

And all these randoms people suggest sound a risk.
