    I was all for giving him time but he let's us down near enough every game.

    The position for one of those West Ham goals was incredible.

    Would be better off playing with no keeper and having an additional outfield player on the park.

    Depends what the question is.

    Who has less skills and presence in goals than a wet paper towel?

    Not joking here but we have arguably the worst keeper in the league.

    Probably got the worst back 5 in the league at this stage. Sooner Starfelt is involved and Jullien returns the better.

    It’s very unfortunate, no matter what he does now people (especially on Talk Celtic), will crucify him for every minor mistake. He made 2 great saves today to keep us in it, but that’ll never be mentioned.

    Yes those two saves he made before clearing a path for Antonio to pass the ball into the back of the net a few minutes later. Just like midweek when he played a couple of nice passes out to the full backs only to pull his hands away at a free kick and let a cross go into the top corner.

    It's no use making a couple of decent saves (which is what they were) if he's going to gift them a goal later on.

    For me, he shouldn't even be that far out at that point.

    I reckon a better goalkeeper stays on his line at the front post and rushes when the attacker is closer. He's making the guys mind up so so early doors there.

    I mean I seen it on telly, so antonio must have been thinking whit the * is this guy doing.

    Christ he's brutal. That's not even a confidence thing either, that's just plain * keeping.

    Doesn't matter, when Ange Ball is fully implemented, you won't even require a keeper. A false nine will be the furthest man back, who will sweep up any loose balls close to goal.

    He’s made an * of it but I love how everyone forgets all the massive mistakes prior. If you’re hated in here, you’re hated. Ask Craig Gordon.

    He’s horrendous, no getting away from it now. Ange subbing him at half time before changing 10 players 10 minutes later says it all. Quicker we get rid and replace the better.

    In simple terms, if you are not liked in this forum no matter what you do it’s never good enough.

    I don't know how anyone can look at him and rate him as a goalkeeper.

    I just don't:giggle1:. And that's not being overly harsh. It's telling the truth.

    Eh? Made two great saves and then let them score easily.

    It's like a surgeon successfully separating conjoined twins, only to shoot them in the face afterwards.

    Why the * would you pat him in the back?

    He's cost us £4.5m but he'll cost us many more millions if we keep persisting with them.

    Truly woeful.

    He’s not liked because he’s been abysmal for us. It’s pretty simple.

    If he started making saves and cutting out the howlers then people would change their opinion.

    That’s how football, and life, works.

    Bit ironic coming from you. The guy who decided Ajer was pish and despite him proving you wrong time after time, you stuck to your guns. What was the fee you said we should bite a teams hand off for, £8m or something like that?

    Haha

    He’s not even good with the ball at his feet, where you can say “ok he couldn’t catch a beach ball indoors from 18 inches away but at least he can spread the play and get us moving up the park”

    He has absolutely nothing going for him, to the point it feels deliberate for a cheap return to Greece.

    He can’t be this bad. Surely?

    Found it strange when people thought it was ridiculous to call him our worst keeper ever. Worst first choice I can ever recall anyway. Getting him out of the side is more vital than signing a right back, bizarrely.
