I think staying at Newcastle for so long cost him and if he'd been at a better club he would have worked on crosses and other weaker parts of his game but he was stuck in a comfort zone. I think Given was told to come out and claim crosses more often when Mancini came in but the results weren't so great - the Stoke throw-in where he went to claim it, fell well short and they scored springs to mind.
I think it's a bit too late in the day now for Shay to get up to scratch on the weak areas of his game
Leighton I think Shay's a very good keeper but not in the same league as VDS and Reina as they simply have a much more rounded game and more strings to their bow. I'm just not having at that someone can be classed as a top keeper when they are so poor at crucial aspects of goalkeeping and have such gaping holes in their game.
