    He was very good today but the other Mackem was sh*t and should be dropped.

    .. Nice to see respect for the youngest English keeper .. Hats off. He was canny ..

    .. Turned it off and watched Family Guy as didn't want to watch the shoot out. Thought it would be finished only to see the save and the pen. Great stuff ..

    One thing that really gets me with all modern keepers is why it is coached into them to punch a long range shot straight back to oncoming forwards. Not many keepers now can actually dive and catch a shot cleanly.

    I played decent level of football as a keeper and if I continually punched shots back into play I wouldn’t be playing next game.

    You never saw Banks or Shilton do this

    Oddly enough Given also did this and Harper diddn't but you always got the impression Given was looked upon as No1.

    My own opinion was that going on everything a top goalie needs all round Harper ticked more boxes than than Given.

    Given wasn’t a good keeper and got found out very soon at City for me Harper was better than Given

    We're in a minority but i agree, Harper just edged it IMO.

    Much more modest about his own ability too.
