Tim Howard

[joey_macmo]

He had a decent season behind a good defence. That's all there is to it.

Yep and he's had 3 better seasons than last year which would have been tougher than last for him anyway according to your logic

But the defense is awful now, that is the real problem, get that sorted and Tim will fall into place behind them

You're a first class debater mate I'll give you that.

It's easy to use stats that suit your argument
I asked the question an hour ago
If he's so good name me the last time he made a world class save late in a game to win us 3 points
By the way da gea has done it 3 times already this season for Utd

He won us 3 points at Villa last season, that's straight off the top of my head.

That was tough

Doesn't mean he will see it out
if he continues with this form and
Martinez. Doesn't replace him in the summer then surely questioned will be asked of Martinez would you keep playing a striker that doesn't score???

Apart from a few games here and there and some flashes, who apart from Mirallas, McCarthy and Jagielka lately have been in form ? Everton as a team have been very average; we can include Martinez too.

You're basing this on stats I suppose, I told you, I don't do stats.. I watch with my own eyes.

You really believe that ? Be honest.

Don't think Howard is particularly suited to the way we play.

You need a keeper who commands the entire 18 yard box if you're going to play with very attacking fullbacks and what is essentially 3 at the back when you're in possession. A Lloris type, basically.

I've asked you this before, what did he do last season that makes you so certain it was a better year than 05/06 06/07 & 07/08?

Edit: make each one a year later


You seem certain about it so you should be able to rack it off quite easily

Kinda this too, some can read a game whilst others are reactionary, at the top level the difference is minimal yet crucial... Basically a keeper like Neuer, loris , can read the game and see what's going to happen to some extent, other keepers, Howard included, react to what's happened.... Slight difference of seconds yet very important .

I agree, but who do you get when you don't have that spending power.

Why does he have to save late in a game to prove a point ?

He has contributed to us winning many 3 points over the seasons and has made many world class saves that has ensured we get those 3 points.

We get it, you don't rate Howard. Some do and some don't.

We signed Seamus Coleman for £60,000 mate. I don't see money as being an excuse. That's what scouts are for.

Did I say it was a better year ?
Look, I'm trying to have an adult conversation with you, I'm not trying to shoot you down or make you look a fool yet you keep coming at me quite aggressively, you keep stating things I've not said and expecting a response... Are you 14 lad ffs... I don't know when his best season was, I'm not bothered, if his best was 5 years ago what good is that now ? All I know is he's not up to the task anymore, it's simple.
