A-M's drunk uncle
Yeah that was **** keeping. He has to instinctively close his fist and get distance on that. Anything but do that. Oh well, onto the next.
Parried the shot into the danger area and then minuted later caught a high ball in the box and actually looked commanding. The two main flaws need ironing out quickly. November 8th will be a big test for him
In his interview yesterday, he talked about losing his footing (which looked hilariously awful in slow motion) and said "a bit unlucky for a keeper". It was but he came across as so blasé.Yeah there has been a number of times his saves has resulted in a tap in on the rebound, at some point it's just not a coincidence or being unlucky..
Will keep looking at this, this season. May be wrong but have always felt in a team of 11 there are some positions more important than others. Not all positions are equal. And a really good or poor player in those positions can have a biggerimpact on the team, like striker and goalkeeper for example. Leno is far from poor, but his parrying into the opposition is costing us.
I know its water under the bridge but I can't agree with that bro. We only got £15.7m for him, of course we could have kept him if the club had wanted to. We wasted £7m on Mari and God knows how much we gave Kia Joorabchian in agents fees on the Willian, Luiz, Soares deals. This is a cut throat results business, the best keeper plays No 1.No way we could have kept both Leno and Martinez...Emi would only have stayed if he was made the number 1 keeper, something which the club couldn't guarantee.
Plus we don't sign both Gabriel and Partey if we don't sell Emi, so it was for the greater good.
I agree with what Tony Adams said. He parried the ball right back into the danger zone. At least try to get strong hands on it to send it clear or out of play. As a goalkeeper facing play there's no excuse for him not seeing attackers coming. It's poor technique, just like when he comes to claim crosses.
I've said it before and I will say it again. We sold the considerably better keeper. Martinez would have saved that properly. I miss the big guy already. Look how much confidence he has given Villa players to attack. The same presence he gave our players. Leno's just not a clutch player.
