    surely our coaches should be working on this, his kicking is absolutely shocking he either kicks it out of play or he gives it to the opposition 90% of the time. frustrating.

    I think his kicking has improved hugely since Brendan arrived, but his distribution was * shocking tonight. Either putting it out of play or was no where near any our players.

    His fault for 3rd gave away needless corner..

    Good shot stopper.

    Can't give the ball away like that in Europe, upgrade needed..

    His kicking/distribution caused so much unneeded pressure tonight.

    Total bomb scare tonight with the ball at his feet. Must have lobbed it to their players about a dozen times.

    He kicked the ball straight to a Bayern player or out of play on many occassions. Some good saves tonight though.

    Everybody gave the ball away tonight. Not sure why we have to focus on the guy least likely to kick it.

    He made some world class saves. Has done a lot of that recently.

    His distribution is shocking, and not just tonight.

    His saves were excellent, but needs to make better decisions where and when to try and pick out a pass.

    He is a goalkeeer. He stopped that being 8-0 tonight.

    He done his job.

    Agree with this, but that's supposing that was the instruction given to him under BR, i.e. Not to punt it up the park. Find a team mate shorter. But Bayerns pressin was so good, combined with our poor passing under pressure led to mistakes from us. I would like BR to change his approach to these games. Not anderlecht, but thee elite. We simply cannot beat them in a passing game. Therefore we need to change our approach, which I know goes against BRs philosophy, but that's the difference between a good manager and an excellent one.

    His passing has been far better domestically. Far better.

    You could make the same comparison about the whole team tonight though.

    Every time he touches the ball I die a little bit inside, he's so *. Don't give me all this he made some saves THAT'S WHAT KEEPERS DO.

    Means * all if he can't even give the ball to a player after the save, * useless. We should have taken Chelsea's money and ran.

    Big Zaluska was a better keeper.

    I hate him.

    His distribution is absolutely embarrassing, it's just not good enough in my opinion.
