Tim Howard

[Joey66]

If you watch it whilst not intoxicated, it's clear. You'll watch it tomorrow in a different light.

Where as you with your Roy Orbison glasses on seen nothing wrong with TH glued to his line with the ball 4 yards away?

So the 6 yard box isn't the space that the keeper should deal with? Comedy stuff some of this haha!

Wtf are you talking about. Go and lie down and sleep it off.

Comedy stuff? Ha ha ha honest to god. Since when does picking up a man defending set pieces suddenly not become important. What !! Don't you get that Barkley had a free header to clear the ball. A free header, unchallenged. The closest red was 2 yards away.

Why is Howard going to come for that free header by his defence to clear an easy ball.....and you're mentioning about comedy? Christ

 

[IRO1977]

Howard was the one with the gloves so he could catch it or punch it!

I agree. It's just that his fanboys think pointing out Barkley's mistake makes Howard somehow less at fault

Barkley poor to lose his man. Probably expects his keeper to at least command his 6 yard box though.

Howard. Unacceptable for an international keeper to not be claiming any deliveries in to his 6 yard box. In desperate need of a new keeper.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

I haven't said that once! Can you actually read English mate? I have said its poor and he has some blame

How can you call the defending "a joke" and then only say he has "some blame"?

Are you trying to shift Barkley culpability on others now and not just Howard?

Mate you clearly can't read properly!!! I have said many times now that it's not good enough the marking and that Barkley should win the header! I don't want to repeat myself once again!

Your saying it's all Barkley's fault and that is total crap! It's in his 6 yard box and any keeper would deal with it as guess what, they can use their hands you know! Amazing ain't it!

It's a clear free header by barkley. Why are you not seeing this?

Only a plank of a keeper comes and attempts to punch that when he can see his player in front of him with a free, unchallenged defensive header.

Go and have another look. He doesn't need to come off his line. Barkley is unchallenged.

This, in a nutshell, is how most fans with no bias towards certain individuals saw it

Doug Deep Breaths It was Tim Howards responsibility to attack that corner the ball was close inside his six yard box end off - I remember you picking over Robles three games last season the first on was a derby game at Goodison He kept a clean sheet Doug, that was a draw today's was a draw, but you have to face facts Tim Howard on crosses is a coward Doug its his big weakness!

Your two must be both stupid! I have said they are both at fault! He only has some blame compared to Howard as Howard can and should deal with the situation first! Do you get that? Any keeper in the bloody National League would probably deal or at least try and deal with that, wasn't hard!

It's not healthy that our 37-year old keeper has no meaningful competition. Joel is a decent backup but not a future first-teamer. We missed a trick this summer, and certainly won't be signing a goalie in the winter either.

Big Nev was arguably the main reason we had all that success in the 80's: a class keeper is the foundation for the rest of the team to build success on. Tim Howard has been quite good, tho' never world-class, and the last 2 years his mistakes are adding up as age catches up with him.

I'm all in for splashing our entire summer 2016 budget on a world-class keep.

Utter garbage why defend the indefensible in Tim Coward he was ahead of Barkley while Howard probably had his eyes shut again!
A good Keeper would have plucked or punched the ball off Ings head height advantage etc its unbelivible what you , and Doug are trying to defend here - its his main weakness exposed yet again!

But tell.me mate.

If a defensive player has a free header, completely unchallenged, why does his keeper need to come for that? I don't understand why you can't see that and more importantly, understand it.

That's why Howard never came for it. He didn't need to. Barkley with the error, it's plain as day.
