He was still in the right place to save it - had the near post covered, but still let it slip through. Would think another keeper would have palmed it round for a corner or something. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

How is it not the keepers fault? Obviously the defending was woeful too Took a massive deflect off Spence. Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,616 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 You can argue it was Bola's ball and Howson caused an issue, but that was a shocking header by Bola even accounting for the nudge. Link to post Share on other sites

TheJew 2,937 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Watmore has been poor. We need to be more ballsy with our selections. 4231 is surely the way forward. Link to post Share on other sites
BoroJake 2,345 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 The midfield 3 just doesn’t work. Kebano should come on 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He's got plenty of time, Bolasie's header's looped up in the air, Howson shouts and Bola stands still. I can't believe you're actually watching that back and thinking Bola is innocent there, tbh.

TeaCider24 12,616 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Massive deflection is an exaggeration too. It pushed it closer to Bettinelli than it would have been without the touch. Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,968 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) 3 minutes ago, BoroSmoggie said: How are going to just ignore the deflection like it doesn’t completely change the direction of the ball from like 4 yards away from him? It doesn’t even slow the ball down. Betenelli is already moving to the other side of the goal from the original shot, and the deflection wrong foots him. It's terrible positioning, when Ayew gets the ball in that position he should be moving right to his near post, forcing Ayew to shoot across goal. The deflection is irrelevant, it's basic goalkeeping. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't massive, and it wasn't as if the keeper was in no man's land because of it. He was in the right place to save it but let it go through him I can say with 100% certainty that the likes of Randolph doesn't let that in 1 Link to post Share on other sites
