Jimzk5 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'd rather put some goaly gloves on a chimp and start him over this clown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post villa4europe Posted August 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2018 its not a mistake a striker 12 yards out with no villa defender anywhere near him smashes the ball at him at probably 60-70mph what do you want him to do catch it? I'm not suggesting its a good save but i think there's an unrealistic expectation as what he can do there and that goal is because of really poor defending not the keeper made some good saves tonight 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 To be honest, Mapau shouldn't of even been on to score, in my eyes the linesman and ref severely messed up with the stamp/harassing behaviour on Mcginn and it's come back to haunt us. The game could have easily been more out of our reach but My land has made some very good saves. I was about to say: I think we have just been very unlucky tonight because we outplayed them pretty much every step of the way. ( then kodjia happened, you beauty) We deserved it, but I'm happy for the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reivax_Villa Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) I am not convinced by him whatsoever He lacks everything that we had in Sam Johnstone last season. Lacks presence, distribution,aggression and belief. Edited August 22, 2018 by Reivax_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Don't agree with some of the criticism. Thought he did ok. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I think it's time to get Moreira a chance. Nyland looks like Guzan in net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 At fault for the 2nd goal foe me. Could have hit that over the bar. But he made some superb saves tonight as well Bruce isnt helping him but having bloody jedinak at cb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He directly caused the 2nd goal, and only 2 minutes later he again flubbed a shot that he luckily got bailed out by the post. Unfortunately keepers are judged on their errors, and he almost had 2 errors that led to goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Zen Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Made some good saves to keep us in the game at 1-2. I think their second looked worse than it really was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 He made a number of important saves, but was really poor for the second goal. Can't help but think he's just going to cost us too many points over the course of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Absolutely no way was he at fault for the goal, the defence need questioning more then him for that. Good saves otherwise, bit too static on his line at corners though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Would need to see another replay really but my impression during the game was that he did well to keep the initial shot out - it was hit hard from point blank range. Made 2 other good saves after that to keep it 2-1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted August 22, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2018 Thought he did well and made some good saves. The second one perhaps could have pushed elsewhere, but it was hit with venom from about 10 yards. Hopefully he grows into the jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
