made some good saves again,stopped us going behind early on and the first thing people do is moan about his kicking out to our midgets lol
Alan Oakes played 680 games for us in 17 seasons. Can't see that ever being beaten. Joe is on 322 but could be with us for another decade.Absolutely perfect for us - hope he goes on to break appearance records for us. Very underrated and a great lad.
A lot is made of his kicking, but be honest who can he kick to? All our forward players get dwarfed by defenders - Aguero, Silva, Navas, Nasri. I wouldn't swap him for anyone a True Blue and top keeper and long may it be so.
IMO criticising Joe's kicking isn't a criticism that should be aimed at Joe, surely the staff should be aware that up top we are tiny, so instead of asking everyone to move up and have Joe hoof it, someone should be dropping in short and playing it out from the back?
With Cech .He's back in the lead for clean sheets this season with 10. Which frankly is amazing with the state our defending was in.
When he plays it out short he often passes it to players who are already under pressure or about to come under pressure.A lot is made of his kicking, but be honest who can he kick to? All our forward players get dwarfed by defenders - Aguero, Silva, Navas, Nasri. I wouldn't swap him for anyone a True Blue and top keeper and long may it be so.
Don't want Butland as Hart's successor, last thing we need is another arrogant keeper. Handanovic would be a great signing.
