I didn’t even notice them during the game so I don’t suppose it matters but watching highlights I have to say the RED gloves look so wrong - but if yesterday is a sign of things to come I don’t care what colour gloves he wears
Have a random guess who disagreed with the above?Yeah, after a while of posting on various footie footie forums. On each and every one a very common denominator is that each forum has a few posters think that their longevity on the forum precursors any form of common sense, decency and ultimately must bring their sanity into question.. if I hadn't seen it so often, honestly I probably wouldn't believe they exist.. but they absolutely do.
Latex is a very common fetish....It was the red gloves that put Fernandes off the easiest chance of the weekend?
He has a touch of the Huerlo in him, doesn't he?
As a fellow competitive keeper, I see many good things and then some mistakes which are understandable as he’s a bit raw.As a chap who played keeper at a decent level and trained keepers for some years... I love him. Very agile and pretty good positioning (which is the most important thing). Keepers rely on timing and confidence and it looks like he's building those.
I reckon he'll be exceptional.
It's not a Serie A thing, it's an Empoli thing. Going from their low block to Ange's high line is chalk and cheese.As a fellow competitive keeper, I see many good things and then some mistakes which are understandable as he’s a bit raw.
One thing I like is he never hides… he tries to make a play and take responsibility.
Seems a good shot stopper, his body shape on the Rashford save was excellent… a lot of keepers (even at the highest level) tend to just throw themselves at the ball and I don’t get it… any height on the shot and you’re beat. Stay on your feet as much as possible.
Definitely have seen a bit of indecisiveness when coming off his line but I’m sure the speed of the EPL is quicker than he’s used to, so he’ll adjust.
I actually have a similar keeping style so I may be biased.
It's all very different to when I used to be a GK at 6th form. When our lot were up their end, I used to take a cheeky bite on a sausage roll. Only minus is that when I had to dive to save a shot, there'd be a distinct crinkly crunch followed by some flattened pastry on the ground where I'd just laid.As a fellow competitive keeper, I see many good things and then some mistakes which are understandable as he’s a bit raw.
