Bernd Leno

De Gea is the best keeper in the world no questions asked.

Think you jinxed him mate, just conceded a shocker there

 

[say yes]

Just goes to show how inevitable it is for a goalkeeper to make a mistake. It's an unforgiving job.

De Gea has dropped several clangers for Spain now, something about it clearly gets to him mentally because he looks like a completely different player.

****ing annoying tbh. Can’t have Real Madrid being put off. Sick of watching him win United 20 points each season.

Well

Hehe it had to happen.
To be fair he's one hell of a keeper but he's still miles off to Neuer.

Neuer does not make such mistakes, especially in big games he's at 100%.

In general every player plays worse for the national teams. It's just more noticeable with the gk, because their mistakes lead to goals

I think the thing with him is that United defence is sh@te so he is busy making saves. Spain is dominant and he is only required to make one or two saves or not make any at all. He gets bored watching others shine. He is the kind who would rather have a ****e defence and rescue them all the time.

Plays for a much worse team and defence tho. Watched them against Bayern in the cup and they were letting Bayern take quality shots from dangerous positions, and unsurprisingly let 6 goals in.

Does anybody got xG numbers for Leno compared to other top keepers?

According to some numbers guys I follow, Leno underperforms on xG too, probably owing to some of his errors.

I'd like to look into Leno a bit more. I remember him being touted as highly promising and he looked pretty good a couple of years ago. If he arrives here as our new #1, it will be interesting to see precisely why.

There's **** ups in every keeper. I would agree there must be less in Neuer as the first clip was taken when Jesus was still in shorts.

I think Leno is the best we can get without spending a lot. The likes of Allison and Oblak would cost too much for us so we need to make do. There's clangers in this guy but I've lived through Almunia, Richard Wright, Bartram, Taylor, Poom, Mannone and Fabianski breaking my heart on a regular basis. I can't even remember what it feels like to have a solid keeper anymore.

Having said that I have high hopes for the Portuguese lad coming up Joao Virginia. Looks quality....but then again I've lived through this guy so everyone's an upgrade in a way.

I would love to first test Juve with a €22m Plus Add-ons bid for Wojciech.

With potentially Italys #1 in the bag & a rebuild job on could be attractive.

No idea how well settled in Turin he is or pleased with the new battle after sitting out a year.

[NieThePiet]

Kicker too, Romano too.

Kicker says €25m. Wished he would have the Nr.1 on his shirt

 

[<<reed>>]

iS tHiS a DoNe dEaL?

 

[kraphtous]

Really didn't think we would sign a no 1. keeper after Cech getting the number 1 shirt.

Pleasant surprise, welcome Leno!

 

[field442]

Seriously doubt Cech will start after paying that much for a keeper.

When Christian Falk say that then it's 100% done he very reliable

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

For 25M is decent business. Leno Lich Sokratis Torreira is very good business for club who compete EL

If someone can find me the post of the AM member who did a post like this regarding Sven and Dortmund using the spongebob picture I'll love you forever. @American_Gooner I feel you'll know. @Aevius ??

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I would be happy if we can add another young CB and good winger. Sound greedy but if we get enough funds we should do it

 

[kraphtous]

Most importantly: Arsenal doing business DURING the World Cup. New regime *bows*
