Twice as many.
Remeires was in a threatening position
I honestly find it incredulous that anyone doesn't realise that we have one of the best keepers in the EPL, Europe and certainly the best keeper I've seen at WHL since Jennings (and in my humble opinion he's possibly better than Jennings- and I don't say that lightly)
He pretty much had his back to the goal - he had no need to get involved at all
We've conceded 22 goals so far this season. After 17 games last season we'd conceded, er, 22 goals. :roll: (Mind you, we had two clean sheets last season!)
Maybe some people should stand up and walk about a bit, give their brains some air.
Really? You don't want our keeper to be involved when an opposition player has the ball on the six yard line right in front of goal, having got goal side of the defence?
When would you like him to be involved?
You make some ridiculous statements B-C, but I think that this one takes the cake. Did you ever watch Jennings? One of the greatest keepers of all time.
I would like to tell you what I really think about this post but I would probably be banned. Who should we get instead of Gomes then? Any idea's? I thought so. If you werent so blinkered in your dislike for him, you would have seen that despite Drogba's goal and his penalty challenge and subsequent save, he actually kept us in the game. I will have Gomes anyday playing for my beloved Spurs. Fucking irritating thread.Harry says that he made up for it, but I dont believe so. The penalty was embarrassing. It doesnt matter whether he saved it or not. Any goalkeeper worth his salt should at least pary a shot away that is hit straight at him.
Its not the first time either this season that he has cost us. I hope he learns to keep his mouth shut in the press until he regains some form.
I want a dull boring reliable keeper not a fucking highlight reel of world class saves and unreal cock ups.
I like Gomes alot but performances like the chav game really make me lose confidence in him. He can be absolute world class pulling off unbelievable saves then 10 minutes later an absolute clown. I know all goalies make mistakes but the mistakes Gomes make are usually complete shockers. Anytime you get both full hands on the ball and your whole body behind it there's no way in hell it should be ending up behind you in the net. It's not a top priority in january but summer time I wouldn't mind a swap deal for Stekelenburg at Ajax maybe throw afew bob in there too. I want a dull boring reliable keeper not a fucking highlight reel of world class saves and unreal cock ups.
So in my opinion our strikers etc are as much to blame as our keeper for us only getting a point on Sunday.
If you think Stekelenburg is an upgrade on Gomes, you're barking.
yep me and your mum :lol:
I'll play devils advocate here and say that this thread was about Gomes's contribution towards loosing points etc. not the entire teams.
well my opinion is that Gomes without doubt is the best keeper we have had at the lane in over 20 years, yes he has some flaws but which keeper doesnt. I do believe however he was at fault for the goal against chelsea. Also this whole thing about him being a hero for saving the penalty is complete crap, he caused the penalty so to make the save just cancels it out.
I would say its a bad day at the office for our beloved octopus but i wouldnt dream of changing him, he will come good as he has shown in his spurs career.
:lol:
Cool then i'll be in it too just to complete the family, SON
I here what your saying however its a team game so is it fair to pick out one players contribution? I agree on the penalty but Gomes still made a number of good saves in the match that would of been goals if he hadn't saved them. So my thinking is those saves out weight the mistake for Drogba's goal.
