    No, but I expect better than that. He’s clearly just not very good.

    Barkas hasn’t had a game like that. Not even close to it. Yet he’s been strung up by half the fanbase.

    Barkas wouldn't have saved a pen, He can't move has concrete slabs attached to his feet.

    i don't think he had that bad a game, he did enough to force Naismith to hit the ball early so it went wide, sure he never caught the dodgy header from our player but he got it out the park, the defendi in front of him for the first was attrocious, and the second goal he is fouled by Naismith, he was awful at their third though but its a position that Christie should have never put us in to begin with. made the saves at the shootout when we needed them so he's still better than Gordon at penalties too.
    For his first real major game he did great for me, there's room for improvement of course.

    Barkas hasn't saved anything that's not straight at him.

    Has Barkas actually made any saves since he came? I genuinely can't recall. And he looks utterly * shell shocked on the pitch, his confidence is at rock bottom. With some players you can risk letting them play through it to get their confidence back, with a keeper though that is a recipe for disaster. As we have already seen. I see no reason to start them ahead of Hazard right now. If it turns out that he keeps making mistakes like the ones today and it wasn't just the occassion, nerves, and seeing the defence in front of him unravel for the first time since he came in, then by all means he should be replaced, just as the others have been given that chance.

    Hazard actually moves and even dives which makes him a better option than Barkas. Feel a bit sorry for Bain but he just can't make an impression.

    As well as the penalty saves he had 2 other decent saves though granted the third goal was totally to down to him.

    So for now I'd continue with Hazard.

    Maybe not.

    Hazard was one of the main reasons we went to penalties however.

    Was bad for the 3rd goal but made some decent saves. Was worked far too hard considering the opposition.

    It's been difficult with no defence and an abysmal midfield in front of him.

    Should never be in goal, at the end before pens he looked visibly unwell.

    Still expect him to save something though but yes defence is shocking too.

    He has been disappointing but he really hasn't had a good environment to come into. Only an top grade level goalie like Forster or 10mil plus goalie could look good the way we have been.

    I would like to think he made up for the 3rd goal mistake. He is young and thrown in at the deep end over a 5 million signing which tells us a lot. Well done to the young bhoy. I didn't think he would save any. HH

    There's looking off form and looking * and I personally think he looks *. I hope he proves me wrong obviously.

    Wasn't as convincing as last week but still managed those saves in the shootout, I can't see him losing his place unless the other two improve massively.

    Brilliant saves during the shoot out, well done son and thanks very much. Should not be playing on Wednesday, forget the emotion of what we’ve achieved, he was a bomb scare. Had it ended differently everyone would be saying it, at this point not good enough.

    He wasn't at fault for the series of * ups by Duffy or the midfield losing every battle in the 2nd half.
