Parky Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 He stands too far out and he's tiny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Havent most if not all of them been screamers though? Also maybe our outfield players should be closing players down instead of giving them the space for these shots. Harsh to put the blame on Given.

Mowen Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Haven't seen many replays of this one, but first thoughts were that positioning was suspect. Beaten at the near post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 It was hit well, it wasn't right in the corner by any means though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I said a while ago about Shay not being very good at saving long range shots & someone cant remember who said saving long range shots was one of his strengths Of course they are wonder strikes because they usually from miles out. Most managers playing us are telling there players to have a pop because they know Shay is prone to letting mega blasts in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be letting them in deliberatly tbh, between him doing that and Owen deliberately getting injured we are fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Given is past his best. Disagree with that Chez. I'll still think he's got another couple of seasons at his peak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still good enough for us but i think Given of a couple of seasons ago would have got to that first one yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Can anyone name a better keeper we've had? Who has been as consistent over a number of years? Shay Given of previous seasons was better than this seasons. 2 shots on target yesterday = 2 goals was yesterday damming stat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Given is not Casillas. Casillas is not a NUFC player. What about Jussi arriving in the January window? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shay Given of previous seasons was better than this seasons. 2 shots on target yesterday = 2 goals was yesterday damming stat. I would've fancied him to save it, I'm not going to lie. The shot should never have got to him mind, but thats a different debate. In his defence he's only played 10 games this season and was out for lengthy spells last year. Like I've said earlier in this thread, we've been lucky to have him over the last 10 years and we shouldn't be too quick to forget what he's brought to the club imo. He's the least of our problems when compared to the other areas of the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but this season is the first for a long time that some people have thought Harper should start instead of Shay. Hopefully Paul Barron can come in & get Shay on the up again.

NSG Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Can anyone name a better keeper we've had? Who has been as consistent over a number of years? I don't care about the past, tbh. All that matter is now. Unfortunately Given has looked very poor in recent weeks, and was slower than a bus when he went down for Barnes' effort.

Mr. Snrub Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 The shot would never have happened if Beye wasn't asleep for their throw in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spurs_from_Africa Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I can think of 10 positions that you should strengthen before replacing Given. I reckon he is still one of the best keepers in the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
