Some save that.

Vine? Match not being shown here.

Not great quality but.

 

[Tubey]

Save was decent, but it was a poor header that gave the 'keeper every chance. Any 'keeper in that scenario is going to dive the way he is leaning and hope for the best.

Strong arm for the save but overkill on the praise really.

As for Bayern, this game is showing the difference in depth between the Bundesliga and Premier League. Germany has a lower tempo, so Bayern can afford to play high up - English sides don't allow that as much. They're still an excellent side obviously, but they wouldn't be quite as dominant if you swapped them into the English league.

similar to Mignolet's save vs Naismith recently

Leverkeusen's starting 11 avg age is 23. Oldest player on the pitch, Chicarito who is 27.

It's okay to be impressed once in a while Tubey and admit somethings excellent.

It's right in the middle of the goal, at shoulder height. It's a "very good" save - calling it one of the best ever is downright stupid.

It's behind him from point blank range at a million miles an hour.

Average.

3-0 to Hull.

I'm not even a fan and Mick McCarthy is doing my head in. He's lost it.

I didn't say it was, I just think there was a lot of hyperbole about how good it was. If he doesn't get a hand to that you'd have to ask why he hadn't, as the ball was placed exactly where any keeper would have moved in that situation.

The distinction in the save is the strength of the arm to claw it away, but a lot of others would have made the same save.
