If Joel had been letting in the goals that super Timmy USA has been recently the Americans and weirdos would be slaughtering him.

They aren't very good at keeping the ball from hitting the back of the net, though, and that's a little bit more important.
They're certainly no worse than Howard at that

I watch football for a living and I agree with him. Loved him at one time but he's just not very good now, even though he has picked up from last season at the start of this one. Don't blame him for yesterday at all, though.
Did you watch the Barnsley match?
In the past 10 years ive coached 3 lads that have been picked up by 3 premier lge teams...one is still there after 2 yrs.
I'd like to think I know a little of what I'm talking about......you think differently , thats your perogative I suppose.

reading your posts makes me want to give you more acid.
That's obviously not true, and you're just being stubborn. I don't know how you can look at someone like Maarten Stekelenburg, for example, and come up with the idea that he's better at preventing goals than Howard is. He's conceded more goals, made fewer saves, and has faced weaker attacks.
I'd say the types of goals Howard's conceded have been far worse. Stekelenburg hasn't been beaten from a 3 degree angle or by a header inside his own six yard box yet that I can recall
You don't recall Lukaku beating him on a header inside his own six yard box?
Oh come off it, you can't seriously compare that goal to Ings' can you?

Yeah he made a mistake on the second goal I won't be a weirdo like you Howard fan boys and deny it. I'd rather him play until we find a new keeper than Howard though.
You're the one who brought up headers in the six yard box. You're right, though, you can't really fault Stekelenburg for that; I was just giving you a hard time. I watched Stekelenburg a lot when he was at Roma, though, and he was generally terrible at claiming crosses. There's no question in my mind that he's a notch below Howard in ability and the statistics back it up. And he's in the top half of the league. You take a look at guys like Pantilimon, Guzan, Boruc, and Ruddy (who is admittedly very young and has lots of room to improve), though, and I can't believe that even you won't admit that Howard is better than they are right now.
No he isn't, he was in 2007 but there's no way he is right now. There's hardly anything to choose between him, Boruc and Guzan, they're all crap. Ruddy is better than Howard though
Ruddy is terrible.
