Hardly at fault for the goals imo

This.
He's not the greatest keeper in the world but the fault for their goals was down to our poor defending not Mucha.

The first goal was a free header and there was very little he could have done, and the third goal was a fantastic shot which pretty much no keeper would have expected. You could perhaps argue that he should have stayed on his line for the second goal, but he was put in a crap situation by Neville to begin with.

you could also argue that he had to come off his line to close the angle.

Mucha wasn't an issue today.

He did okay today but still makes me feel nervous. Unfortunately see him costing us a few points between now and the end of the season.

Just watched it back, think he should have stayed on his line tbh. Distin would have gotten in between their player and the goal and he was at a relatively wide angle when he shot.

I thought this at the time but haven't seen it on TV.

He looked slow and terrible today. Didn't even move in the general direction of any of the goals and just watched them go by as he wouldn't have done any worse with a pair of concrete boots on. Sadly he was far from being the worst player on the pitch today.

Totally agree with you however what's the point in trying to dive for it when you know your not going to get it? Pointless if you ask me.

Mucha wasn't a problem today.

Unfortunately, I don't care.

Has a case for feeling a bit aggrieved on the 2nd and 3rd but I don't see a need to extend his contract.

His contract is not the one i'm bothered about

Very easily bullied and tussled out of position, either hit the deck and force the referee to make a decision or wipe someones face off. The look on his face when they hit the post and he just did a little spin was classical - he looked a right dozy twunt.

All the people criticising Mucha, do you think Howard would of saved any of them?

I can only guess you're a Howard fanboy.

I like Howard but there was nothing I saw from Mucha to make me think that mucha should be a permanent starter however he's only started a couple times and hopefully I'm wrong. None were easy saves but he could have done better today. The 1st goal was a free header but he was also muscled out (which we are all complaining about with howard). The 2nd was a one on one so OK fine. On the last one could he have saved it, I don't know it was a quality shot but his feet was firmly planted to the turf.

Much the same as when they hit the post. Maybe its unfair to expect him to be supremely confident with Heitinga going through the motions in front of him but I just dont see a solid enough keeper.

Nobody's saying he's the no1 though we all know he's our 2nd choice keeper but I would confidently say Howard wouldn't of saved any of them.

The only one he had a chance at was the 2nd but I still don't think he would of.
