Joe did fade badly and his technical weaknesses were mercilessly exploited. But...That was peak Joe he faded badly at the end. Were stuck with Eddie unfortunately. I'd even say De Gea in nets we don't lose that game.
On more than one occasion Joe actually won us games or kept us in games we could have been blown away in.
As a pure goalkeeper I don't think Eddy is that good. But I suppose we have to accept the compromise of him basically having to be as good as an outfield player with the ball at his feet.
Most of the time the balance works in our favour... occassionally not.
I'm not blaming Eddy for tonight, its more a general observation.
