rocket_scientist Posted August 7, 2016 Report Posted August 7, 2016 Where's the love? This guy looks very good. Tall, powerful, agile, what's not to love? Quote
manc_don Posted August 7, 2016 Report Posted August 7, 2016 I've been impressed with what I've seen of him, certainly a massive improvement on brown and the other imposters pre and post ward. Quote
scotfree Posted August 8, 2016 Report Posted August 8, 2016 It was some save in the second half. Looks like he's a goalie who will not be bullied. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted August 8, 2016 Author Report Posted August 8, 2016 It was some save in the second half. Looks like he's a goalie who will not be bullied. I was initially impressed with his stop in the first half. It came through a crowd and he reacted real quick to get solid hands behind it. When it parried off one of their players and behind, I was reminded that somebody was quick to criticise Ward for his parries, his argument being that this was a supposed weakness of his. After a decade of Langfield, tolerated by too many for too long, we know not to expect that knowledge of goalkeeping is a given. Christ we had four successive managers who didn't instantly sack the blundering fool. When your reactions are good enough to even get to a ball like that, there's no time to direct the parry. With some saves certainly but not these instant reaction stops. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted August 8, 2016 Report Posted August 8, 2016 He has impressed me. Personally I think he has played very well for us so far. Quote
