Guest firetotheworks Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I don't know why people think Harper had no chance with the third. Seriously? It dropped perfectly in the top corner; Cleverley couldn't have placed it any more perfectly if he had a hundred more attempts. Hence why most including Ferguson thought it was probably a cross. It was from 30 yards, looping, no real pace and Harper saw it the whole way. He had time to adjust and save it imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'd put money on Krul saving the one that went through Harper's legs as well. Krul is excellent at those kind of stops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Harper was ok for the first 2 but the 3rd seemed to hang for about 10 minutes. That dribble into Welbeck annoyed me more though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMTW Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Harper was ok for the first 2 but the 3rd seemed to hang for about 10 minutes. That dribble into Welbeck annoyed me more though. I reckon Krul would have had a good chance with the first. Harper just looks so unconvincing. Rooney hit a freekick about mid height in the goal and Harper just about pushed it around the post. Limp wristed and no conviction. Can't be filling the back four with much confidence. And vice versa. Need Krul and our first choice CBs back ASAP if we want to take anything against the mackems. That dribble. Fucking hell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 People have bizarre expectations to expect any keeper to save the 3rd tbh. Harper almost got a hand to it. Harper is slow, and not very tall. Therefore, it is not beyond expectations that a taller, faster goalkeeper (most premier league keepers), would have a good chance of saving it.

Pilko Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 People have bizarre expectations to expect any keeper to save the 3rd tbh. Maybe if Warwick Davis was in net then I'd give him the benefit of the doubt, but I reckon the vast majority of PL 'first choice' keepers would have saved it. A few of the second choice ones would have too. Please tell me - will Krul be back for the derby? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has about 2 seconds to change from preparing to intercept a cross on the front foot to backtracking to stop a looping shot from hitting the top corner. Like claiming Cech should've saved Cisse's really. No one would've said owt if Krul was in goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say the same with any keeper. I don't think he was at all at fault for anything else either btw (stupid dribbling aside) and although I think he's past it, I don't think his form has been too bad this season.

Jayson Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Just perception aint it. Think you guys are underestimating the affect of the ball looping like that, hes not the first keeper to concede a cross/shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it wasn't his fault though, he was saying the team should have pressed the ball more!!! the 2 goals from corners weren't his fault but his performance overall was dreadful.
