    Watched it a few times, he messed up setting the wall against Newcastle as he did against Burnley. Against Villa he had no chance for 1st and 3rd goals. 2nd goal, maybe. Not sure, so I give him benefit of doubt. Apart from the free kick issues, the one knock I have of meslier is he is completely left footed, which is usually fine but sometimes he gets in trouble as an attacker recognizes this and forces him to make a clearance with his left when using his right foot would have delivered ball to a free team mate.

    Yup and at his age he is just going to get better and better.

    A wall can't block the entire goal, Shelvey put it in the corner he was supposed to defend but it bounced in front of him. A top class keeper probably saves it but he isn't at that level yet. It was a mistake from him but something that he will develop as he grows. If anyone is at fault it was Llorente both times for stupid tackles outside the box.

    Against both Newcastle and Villa he made point black saves.

    I get he makes the odd error but for a kid his age to make so few is unbelievable.
