Who knew I could actually get excited to see an Everton keeper with the ball at his feet. His distribution is something else. Oh and he can actually make saves.
 

Not the wrong hand at all... no such thing... shot was going in the top corner... he stopped it.. I don't care if he used his right leg to save it...
You would have cared if Stoke had scored from the resultant corner. In my humble opinion, he should cease this 'Posing' and
saved with both hands, as we all know how poor we are at defending corners. A point to think on, late in the game if he knocks the ball out for a corner, the Ref will find time for a corner, but if the goalie saves it with both hands (Like West,Southall or
Martin would have) and walks around his box then clears the ball upfield, it may bring full-time safely.

Mate there was no way any keeper was catching that lol safety first... last minute... debut... 1-0 up and you want him to try and catch a shot like that? That's the sort of thing hart would try and get wrong and cost his team points

I cannot believe you typed that. Genuinely sat here open mouthed. Don't really know how to respond.

You honestly think he could/should have caught that?...

Tbf mate, I think you're trying to find something wrong which isn't there.

First of all, you're saying not only does he have to save it, he has to take all the sting out of the ball so he can calmly collect it afterwards. He's only got a pair of hands. The harder Shaqiri hits it, the harder it is to take the sting out of it. Simple.

To your point of 'he should know we aren't good at defending corners', again- when facing that shot- he isn't thinking about the consequences of the save, his job is just to save it.
If those idiots in front of him can't track a man at a corner then that's not his fault. Thinking about it though, since RoKoe came in, we've looked pretty decent at set pieces haven't we?
I just think you've got this a bit wrong mate, in all honesty.
 

It was a quality save. You'd expect a good keeper to make that save, but his all-round performance was good and surely confidence-inspiring to his defenders.
