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).
 
In his defence, he made one exceptional stop yesterday at the feet of their lad to keep us in the game. He is shocking on crosses and at kicking though.

Why we didn’t go for Kelleher absolutely boggles my mind. Just another decision to put on the ever growing Mount Everest of decisions that make you wonder what sort of fudging amateurs are running our club.

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 🙏

if anything sums up our recruitment it's this clown

Cheaper option than our number 1 target who we had pretty much wrapped up.

Now one of the main reasons we will be relegated and Raya is for Arsenal winning the league.

I know other clubs fail with getting players in. But I've not recalled so many failures we have had in the recent windows with rumours saying yeh then we getting shamed straight after. MGW. Eze. Robertson. I am sure there are more? Maybe I've blocked the mess of year out.

We get bantered for not winning cups. We win one now we get relegated. Typical

His apparent nervousness seems to be very infectious throughout the team.

It will. When you got no confidence in your keeper and them as individuals have no faith in themselves. Slippery slope. That coupled with a lack of basic skill set and putting people in their wrong positions and half your team being out for 2yrs and a brick board and ANOTHER manager ........

That's incredibly unprofessional, to say the least. Banter is for fans. But maybe that’s the underlying problem in the PL/PGMOL?

Its what happens when you have 20yrs (I'm guessing) running your socials and a possible arse fan!

There is a difference when you make occasional mistakes. And also just when you are not very good.

Pretty sure Raya has had meres. But nowhere near as many as Vic. Maybe cos he is the only one I watch regular
 
Vicario hasn't saved a single penalty since joining Tottenham.

Even more surprisingly, out of 15 penalties taken against him (including penalty shootouts), he only dived in the right direction 3 times.

I always find a grim humour in watching him face a penalty. It’s comically bad every single time.
