Goalkeeper

[weegiearab]

Can the goalie coach not play between the sticks? I am still struggling to get over the January transfer window and the biggest piece of self harm and negligence that I have ever witnessed in my years following United! It's akin to having a flat tyre...limping to the garage, throwing the spare in the bin and puncturing the other tyre...then looking at the prices and thinking "I'm no paying that!" before driving off without even considering purchasing some decent quality part worn tyres.
I swear to god...the goalie, the transfer window, the signings...it reeks of match fixing or money laundering or something!

Birighitti is awful. He had to make one bread and butter save and nearly fumbled that in the 2nd half. Cld have done better for the goal, but we defended like a bunch of kids. All running towards the goal line to cut the pass out without looking around and leaving 2 players unmarked. Something we have been guilty of all season.

Birighitti is awful. Coulld have done better for the goal.

How does this go through him. Is it smoke and mirrors? A hologram maybe. I swear the ball went straight through.

One of the great mysteries 🤔

Just sat through the brief highights of that and my overriding conclusion is he has been nutmegged, the ball has hit the post and deflected to McMann and sat up nicely for the scorer.

Yes, Freeman should have stopped the big lad, but a keeper should not be getting nutmegged.

Disagree on Newman, he made a chunt of that, defenders didn't help but a decent keeper doesn't come out like that into no man's land

Maybe so, but look at the f*ck up Mulgrew & Edward made of it? Newman came for it, roared to Mulgrew & Edwards to the point the fans behind the goal could hear it, yet Mulgrew still takes matters into his own hands. If the keeper shouts for it, leave it to the keeper.

He's f*cking useless, that's how. I doubt any keeper in the world manages to produce that juggling act he did in the 2nd half either. We were the post away from him single handedly costing us another game. It's actually beyond incredible now

Another one for his 'highlights' reel...

Newman selected for Scotland U21s.

100% agree. The keeper might have came too far out too early, fair enuff. BUT... If a keeper is facing the correct way (up the park) and clearly takes responsibility with his shout , get oot the weh, and let him blootir' it to safety. Then any mistake made would be down to him. Edwards seemed to get the memo, (or was still sleeping) CM being captain, (in his haid) overruled the keeper and passed it to his teammates back, the rest is history.
