Solid today. Some good saves and caught a few high balls into the box. I still believe any ball in the 6 yard box should be gobbled up by the keeper,might be harsh on him for the 2nd since it was curling away from him but I would like him to at least punch a cross like that clear.
 
So was Kone's third and the Coates own goal. Sometimes a cross just cuts a keeper out, especially an outswinger.
Forget the cross, before that he came he stopped went back on his line and was motionless when the cross came in if that would have been a 2-2 draw - he would have been picked on again for his positional sense!
 
Sunderlands second, I get it was an outswinger but could he not have punched it clear? He just seems terrified to come off his line
 
I'm just saying, that's not a goal most people would blame on a goalkeeper. Sure, if he was as good as Neuer or Courtois, he might have punched it away, but that's a goal a great keeper saves, not a goal that a bad keeper lets in, if you get the distinction.
