andycap Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 I'd rather have popey in the sticks rather than an onana type. Pope majority of the time is a corking keeper with his only downside been his distribution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 I'm at the point now where I'm just telling him to launch it down the line or down the middle if he's under any pressure. I get the fact we're trying to play it out and build nice attacks from the back as it's a bit fashionable but he's not up to that technically. He's a great keeper and I'm not having a go but he's really poor with the ball so let's limit that as much as possible and just deal with the second ball, eh? Seems like the more we trust him in our own third the more likely we are to concede. He can still do the sweeper/keeper thing but it's got to go long when it trickles through to him.

Lush Vlad Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Said in the match thread. It felt noticeable that we were going back to him more often than usual. Hopefully more because Bournemouth forced us to. Rather than by design. No Schar and Trippier in the back 4 will do that, I guess. Anyway. Despite him possibly being the worst keeper with his feet in all of the leagues. He is a top drawer ‘goalkeeper’. His save with his leg today looked routine. But it really wasn’t. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted Wednesday at 21:31 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:31 Something just seems off first few games. We knew his kicking was always poor but he's not even taking the crosses that last season we were calling Dubravka out for "not claiming like Pope would" at the moment.
