Guest JS Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Being patriotic, seems Vorm has dropped off the radar due to last season's injury woes, and Stekelenburg will certainly be up there above some of the names mentioned too. If that was 2-3 years ago I would have agreed with you. But now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Krul is the best reaction pure shot stopper in the league. He'll be priceless in a couple of years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the NT he really did look good, but he became proper calamitous at club level when he started to age like. He's odd, every other game he'd play a blinder or turn into an absolute clown. I couldn't bear it anymore, Fulham can have him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 In the programme yesterday, Steven Taylor says Tim Krul is the least intelligent which is a bit rich but then in the feature where they ask players to name their dream line-up of players they have played alongside, Krul's backline is Danny Simpson, Boumsong, Colo and Raylor The rest of his team is Cabaye, Milner (!), Sneijder, Van der Vaart, Robben and Huntelaar.

Guest palnese Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 You don't see him making mistakes like the one he made today very often. Can't remember the last time he fucked up like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 You don't see him making mistakes like the one he made today very often. Can't remember the last time he f***ed up like that. It wasn't much of a mistake, he tried to come out and claim the ball but couldn't get passed a couple of Villa players between him and Benteke. He did what a keeper will normally do but on this occasion claiming the ball wasn't possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't said that it wasn't a mistake, I just don't think it was too bad. He had a decision to make and he made the same decision most keepers would have made and the result would have been the same no matter who the keeper was.

Ronaldo Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 All keepers make mistakes that cost goals, even the very best. Acknowledge the mistake by all means. We're lucky. There's very few I'd swap him for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's very few I'd swap him for. I've had (and still have) my issues with him, but he's clearly a talented goalie and is sure to only get better. He got plenty of practise last season anyway so there's no surprise there's a slight improvement already this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a decision to make and he made the same decision most keepers would have made and the result would have been the same no matter who the keeper was. This. The way the 3 Villa players piled in front of Krul, it was a goal that was coming provided Benteke made the right contact with the ball. The whole move was just one of those goals that was bound to go in, even if Sissoko hadn't have lost Benteke. The key was the perfectly taken corner. Krul didn't flap at it. He was committed but didn't get there fast enough. He had conceded enough goals last season staying on his line, so for me, coming out represents that he's learning, and he'll be better for it. Thankfully it didn't cost us this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Seriously needs to work on his distribution. He keeps a hold of the ball for far too long, today in the final 10 minutes when we were losing he kept a hold of the ball instead of getting it out fast to get the counter attack going, in the end Hull got players back and into position before he let the ball go. He does it all the time, on his goal kicks he either aims for Shola and over hitting it, or if Shola's not the he tries to hit it out to the wings and it goes out of play at about the half way mark because the ball is off down the access tunnel and joining the queue for chip and larger because he's over hit it that far.

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Has looked very flappy on crosses and corners since coming back from injury, its becoming more and more noticeable, his distribution has always been shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
