Said it in the match thread but he’ll 100% be disappointed with his positioning and reactions when he reflects on the first two goals.

He’s still a good keeper, just going through a bad patch at the minute, head seems to have fell off in the last few weeks.
 
Poor decision in city first goal...has all the tools to be a top keeper...but his decision making at times is costing us points
 

The question I keep asking is why do we keep conceding goals in and around our own 6 yard box and today it was against two players who are about 2 foot nothing
 
It's being a bit harsh but he can't come rushing out on the Jesus goal. Make him hit it past you from that angle, going slightly away from goal and on his weak foot instead of making it so he just has to roll it by as you run out. Other two though no chance at all.
 
Also, is anyone else noticing a tendency in recent matches of him not punching / pushing / palming the ball to the side but, more often than not, back out in front of him.

Did it a couple of times today and thankfully the 3 CB’s swept it away, but might be our undoing in future.

I'm more concerned about the two tiny players who managed to beat our three 6 foot+ centre halves in the 6 yard box today.
