One single example as I would be more than happy to agree to disagree with you: he saved a clear goal opportunity against the Wolves the other day, for instance. Fantastic.
Chelsea could have been, in the "what if" alternative universe, only one point behind.
Not a very strong argument, but less weak than all counter-arguments, moaning and flames I've seen here put together. Cheers.
I'd prefer to judge him on his overall contribution and attributes. He looks slow, doesn't get tight and gets outjumped. These things have happened many times. He's clearly got a good left foot and whips in a good ball. But I've seen him outpaced over 5 yards three times now at least. And not by football geniuses.
I'm really hoping it's a fitness issue because we really need him to start playing well.
