Maarten Stekelenburg

[toffeejack]

he's gained us 3 points this season already. Not in the way keepers save points because they made a save, that would be stupid. But he pulled off two great saves vs spurs which he probably shouldn't have and then a couple of one on one saves today which saw us win the game

Joe Hart is awful and his head is caked in dandruff to make matters worse.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

At most its a forced error, at VERY most, thats not the view I hold, he was fouled in my eyes, but hey ho, I really like the look of him, he talks, he commands his box normally and he can pull off a save when needed, if and im really not, if I was critical, his kicking is utterly shocking, but thats just my search for perfection.

Ive honestly never really took any notice of him before now, but ive liked what ive seen so far, if we get another keeper in great, if not, more than happy to see him getting a crack for now.

Hola Pep.

Either he's good, or we'd simply got used to Howard being really bad. Not intended as a sleight on Howard's good times.

Made 3 saves in those 2 games that would have graced the highlight reel of Martyn or Southall and not looked out of place mate
Theres a reason he was once so very highly rated and maybe he is having an Indian summer

Yes he's made some impressive saves at crucial points. Yet he couldn't get a game at Fulham?

It's a funny old game......

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

I feel confident with him between the sticks at the moment. Indian summer or not.

How much of him not getting a game was down to his wages being too high, or alternatively wanting to blood a young cheaper goalkeeper though?

Fulham couldnt afoford his wages when they went down mate, it's why they loaned him out for two seasons running.

He did get dropped after an injury when they went down - but they changed coaches etc and think it was more them trying anything to stay up

Maybe he's a player who needs to the right coach/manager, got a dutch gk coach and a manager who obviously trusts him as well

All of it they coudlnt afford to pay him and had to loan him out

 

[ijjysmith]

Would be exceptionally harsh to drop him I have to say.

 

[ToffeeTim]

He doesn't make me tremble in fear anytime the ball gets close to him which is a nice change and good for my blood pressure after last few season's of terrible Tim

 

[blulouie]

Doing very well for us at the moment , but to say dont buy Hart as we dont need him is shortsighted.

If Rom had bagged a hatrick and played well today would it be a case of we dont need another forward...of course not.

First time in years we've a manager that wants propper competition for places . The more good players the better for me.
