AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I didn't think his work on crosses was anything exceptional, but it was solid and I don't remember many major errors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Darlow would have done much worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Hardly commanding? He basically owned the box on the dozen corners we conceded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 On another day those punches land to opposition and lead to goals. He’s done that a few times and I think punching GKs get folk nervous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorchyTBB Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I agree with The Mag, I think he's okay but very overrated on this forum imho. He, doesn't dominate his area and his kicking has always been woeful. I know I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer Darlow although there's not much between them, they both have similar strengths and weaknesses.

His attempts to win the ball with his head rather than his hands? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Not sure what to tell another human being if they think Karl Darlow is better than Dubravka. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonArmy1892 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Darlow isn't better in any department, his shot stopping is his biggest strength and Dubravka is just as good if not better at him at that aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Am quite certain under Rafa there was a stat that Dubravka was one of the best at the high catch in the box as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Absolutely no idea what games people are watching if they think Darlow is anywhere near Dubs in catching/command of area stakes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorchyTBB Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 To answer the comments aimed at me by the Dubrava fans that have commented to my earlier post, my view as already mentioned, is that they are both very similar in terms of strengths and weaknesses. Neither can kick or dominate their area and they both like to stay on the line more than they should, especially from corners. They are both good at shot stopping and reaction saves but, for me, Darlow is better in one-on-one situations. So, it's a very close call, but I just prefer Darlow. The game is all about opinions and it would be a poorer place without them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
