Mole_Toonfan Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Is Krul the dutch number one these days? Aye, although he will probably have to reclaim it again as he's been injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Krul is a better shot stopper, however Elliot's distribution is far superior to Krul's. This. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Ron is like Sgt. Foley from An Officer and A Gentleman. Harsh, bro. Let's just keep things in perspective: Krul's the Dutch no.1. Elliott has looked an adequate PL sub. You're one hard man to please my friend. Having high standards is not such a bad thing mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Krul should always play 100% if fit fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Will be catching up with Krul on the clean sheets soon For some reason I thought he was 5ft 10 and could never work out how he still managed to look so tall. Finally Wiki'd him Love his distribution. Always getting it out as quick as possible and even though they didn't come off tonight his long throws were unlucky not to create quality breaks.

Tiresias Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Doing fine for us. One point looked like whoever was controlling him on fifa was taking the piss mind just dribbling him out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Loved his interview before the game, really seems to have his head on straight. Model pro, seems an all-round great guy and clearly capable backup. Love him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I dunno if it's cos I've had seven pints, but I swear that free kick near the end he saved with his forearm? Everywhere that's done a match report keeps saying it hit the bar... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hit the bar and then the underside of his arm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiemag Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 If it didn't hit the bar I think he would have saved it. He was right there. He's pretty spot on at saving anything outside or around the 18 yard box. Krul has him covered with the insane reflex shots/hiders inside the box. Still he's a pretty handy backup keeper, plus he's a top bloke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 He's done a decent job in this run of games. His distribution has been good and I can't remember him making any real howlers. Seems a huge difference from his first few games for us when he looked nowhere near our standard. Nice to have a capable backup keeper who also seems to be happy enough to play second fiddle to Krul. Bit of a Harper/Given situation again although I do think the difference in ability between Krul and Elliot is bigger than Shay and Harper was.

Benwell Lad Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'd be quite content to have Krul and Elliot at the club for the next few years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 He looks a very good backup keeper for us, looks stable enough after nervy 1st game, Distribution much better than 1st game, growing in confidence, as are the players with him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Love his quick, flat distribution. Looks to play it short, has a hell of a throw on him and his kicking is usually pretty accurate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wil Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Rob's done really well since he came in, hasn't let anyone down at all. Very pleased for him. Didn't know much about him at all, but he's turned out to be very solid and reliable and has made some excellent saves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Yep, he's done really well to come in and perform so solidly. Makes saves when he's required to and is always looking to spring counter attacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 He has surprised me during this spell. Looks a lot better than I thought and another absolute bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

henke Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Aye i'm loving the rapid, low throw to the halfway line. It's much more accurate than kicking, and i think we need to work on it more. Krul too for that matter. Imagine hoying them out regularly to Gouffran and Ben Arfa when he's fit. Or the pace we have in Campbell. Jesus imagine Obertan wasn't such a shithouse / didn't have the touch of Jimmy Saville, he'd be lethal running onto those throws. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
