Tim Howard

[ArtetaMoney]

I think we should ban all the yanks off here so everyone hates Howard. It would be a much nicer place then.

GOT feeling the Christmas love for our favourite American I see....

I'd rather have Brian McBride in nets.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I just don't think he thinks he has any better options at the moment.

He could stick Barkley, or maybe Barry in goal!

 

[ArtetaMoney]

If we lose tonight it'll be because of him.

 

[toffeejack]

Ha ha Richard Wright was it??

could mean that, or could mean a direct message to tim to not come onto the pitch. ha

 

[sageyefc]

Hes gonna start in and cost us the semi's isnt he

 

[MartSlinger]

What gives you that impression?

He wanted a new number one this time last year. Unsure whats seemingly changed his mind. But i do get the feeling he wants one but doesnt want to upset Howard ala Distin last season incase he cant get one.

I dunno. He wanted a new keeper because Howard was injured. Then Robles did OK. Then Howard went straight back in.

Not sure I see anything about him eyeing a new keeper.

I guess so.

I do think he is scared of another Distin situation arising though, especially with Howard being here ten years and a respected member of the squad.

There were rumours about some senior players being arsy about performance bonus' so it could be linked with that.

Yes it was him belive it or not signed as citys 3rd keeper he also fell out of his loft pre season and damage

 

[USABlue]

I think we'll look for a new one in the summer

 

[Caolam]

I think he sees it; I just don't think he thinks he has any better options at the moment.

If that is the case then he needs to do something, Howard is finished as a premiership keeper, if Robles is not good enough then he has to be moved on as well. In my opinion this is the most pressing problem we have. A good keeper would give us 6 points between now and the end of the season.

I want to be singing the praises of Tim today with an Everton win!

Why wait that long when your current goalkeeper is uber crap
