Tim Howard

well, at least Flapper Man is on his way out.

Our deluded friends have just renewed their version, the Mig. Gotta laugh.

It wasn't even like that was his only mistake that game. He somehow let in a Demba Ba shot travelling 1mph too.

I know, honestly it was one of the worst efforts you'll see from a Premier League striker and it still squirmed past him as he just fell over

I just hope our American brethren can admit that their inferior knowledge of the game has made them look quite silly in this thread...

why have a go at the americans? thats low... I think most of them too would like to see howard dropped now.

He probably shouldn't still be at the club.

Tim was a good goalkeeper with the ability to create the occasional moment of brilliance but also prone to a mistake.

On the whole though, he was one of the top six GK's in the country about five or six years back.

He started to decline properly after that World Cup in 2014. He probably should have gone in Summer 2014 or Summer 2015 at the latest. If he had then he would still be remembered fondly, thanked for his efforts etc.

Because he has overstayed, he is now the scourge of most of the support base. He probably won't be remembered for the good performances but for this last two years where he has been mostly awful (despite the odd moment of brilliance).

I hope he leaves in the summer, as much for his sake as our own.

You see, I literally can't remember this ever happening. Not once can I think of a time he's pulled off a save that made me go "wow, how did he do that? He had no right to save that". A save such as the one Butland pulled off on Saturday from a point blank Lukaku header. At his best, he was able to do the absolute basics of his job, a middle of the road Premier League keeper. Sadly those days are long, long gone

Let's be fair, most of them agree Howard is spent.

It's just the odd few who support him, of which there are still a couple of non-US fans too.

I get the impression

Hmmm.. Fiest Joel mistake and their rampant blind patriotism will be all over the forum.

You're generalising too much here.

You can't say all Americans will feel the same.

I'm expecting a statement from Obama any time now.
