George Bailey Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Happy for him, hated that gamesmanship though. That's just me and I don't really want to re-ignite a debate, not least because I seem to be in the minority. Agreed. Good saves, went the right way for all of them, but antics left bitter taste for me as well. He may well be called on again against Argentina imo. As for his future, we shall see but I have my doubts we will see him again for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Mentioned on the radio last night that several of the Costa Rican players were left-footed and with Krul being left-handed, that could also have been a factor in the decision. I think he used to do OK with penalties with the reserve and youth teams but certainly has a poor record since being first choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I remember him saving one from Lampard. What was his second save? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Luckily for us, Ochoa and Navas are the goalies that seem to be up for grabs for the big clubs. I'm so proud of Tim, though. Not normally a huge fan of him but last night was amazing. It felt different to seeing Debuchy, Sissoko and Tiote play - Tim is practically one of us. They'll probably be the only World Cup minutes he'll ever play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I remember him saving one from Lampard. What was his second save? David Dunn, Blackburn away when Obertan scored at the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 http://i.imgur.com/Vjs0sJE.jpg That's nonsense tbf, he paced backwards and forwards each time. He didn't walk to one side at all. Can't stand year one semester one psychology bullshit like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 He's a great keeper who's being held back by substandard coaching as we saw last night. Biggest mistake he's making is sticking with us as horrible as they is for us fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 That amateur psychology about Kruls penalty saves is utter bollocks like, the players would/should have decided in advance where they were going to place their shots. Very much doubt they would decide just before they set up to take it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The skinny is this - he studied where they shot, he practiced for 7 weeks (apparently) on penalty kick saving technique, waiting until final possible moment, and he talked some shit to the players to try and get in their head before they took it. He made 2 great saves. That massive image posted above is terrible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Just thinking in a pretty shitty and dire season for us this lad broke the premiership record and was the hero at a world cup quarter final, despite his poor season he's still one of those players too good to be playing for us.

Jayson Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Watching it back, he does specifically walk to one side for each pen & the shooter then goes the opposite way. Based on the TV footage anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Very proud of him last night. Keepers do all sorts to get into the kick-takers mind, I didn't see anything wrong with what he did. If I was the kick-taker, it would piss me off massively but getting the psychological advantage is a huge part of a shoot-out and I thought that Costa Rica crumbled.

geordiesteve710 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 You see much worse gamesmanship most times a penno is given during open play, when the whole team gets involved. Seems de rigeur for south American teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the fact he was brought on kinda threw costa rica off a bit, they have been practicing penalties and their entire strategy last night seemed to centre around getting to the shootout and they weren't as good as the previous round Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
