I’m not so concerned with him kicking it out of play, we’re not directly hurt from that.

Bigger issue is how poor he is with shots from distance and it’s because of his footwork. Iwobi’s goal is a perfect example.

He dives with both feet on the ground from a static position. You get very little launch that way. He has a good view of the shot, a couple of quick steps his right would give him momentum and a better launch for an easy save.

I’m surprised there’s been no improvement in this area, it’s why he’s often beaten from distance so easily. This doesn’t take away from his short distance saves, which is fantastic
It does hurt us as we are giving the ball away and coming under pressure from it. If he was a top class shot stopper and could deal with crosses it could be over looked, but he's not (besides for short range reaction saves as you said).

Paul Robinson had the same problem.
 
How can someone who’s played for Italian national team be this atrocious at kicking a football!

That one in the first half, I reckon Tudor told him to shoot as he applauded straight after and Leno was miles off his line.

I said to my daughter about 5 minutes into the game that I couldn’t believe how far Leno was coming out of his goal when Fulham were in possession so you could well be right.
 
What chance have you got as a club when the governing body are openly taking the tinkle out of you

Unfortunately we’ve taken over from ASSnal and ManUre as the new Banter FC 🤡

Hopefully we’ll stay up and the heir to Paratici shall finally complete that painful rebuild which Pochettino wants undertaken so the mantle shall pass onto another club who are stuck in a negative spiral, whilst our replacements to Sonny & Kane fire us straight back into the Top 4 of PL and nWHL becomes a fortress like how Mauricio had the old gaff before it was bulldozed 🙏
