    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    I can remember only one mistake he made with his feet all season, and even then it was just a loose touch and was able to kick it into touch. Likewise after Man City (harsh) and Leicester, he made no significant errors in general. He really is a fantastic keeper with an amazing attitude and I...

    Stockdale was a unit. If Duffy trains into Ryan I'd fear for him. Best keep it to hair ruffles.

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    He has the confidence of the manager to fire pinpoint GKs to wide areas at a particular height so it can get flicked on the touchline, targeting their full backs. A couple went out of touch today but it's not an easy skill, it was clear at points last season Stockdale was asked to do the same...

    5 ft 10 in (Kayal) 6 ft 2 in (Murray) 6 ft 3 in (Maenpaa) 6 ft 4 in (Krul) 6 ft 1 in (Stephens) I thought some seasoned NSC'ers doubted Ryan's 6ft+ status? Maybe they gave him a soapbox to stand on ???

    Is he able to touch the crossbar though?

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    Just as the same 'many' spot some of our crap footballers and turn out to be hopelessly wrong. Barnes, Baldock, Stockdale, Stephens etc.

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    You seem convinced it would have changed the outcome of the game. That's fair enough, and I agree it was a routine save that should have been held or at the very least parried to relative safety. Me personally, I struggle to see how this would have altered the trajectory of the game and...

    A panzer tank wouldn't have claimed that ball in front of those bodies, and it would have been a worldy of a save for any keeper to have tipped that over the bar or even parried it. It's a header from 4 yards ffs.

    Anybody who watched that game and came out of it thinking we lost because of Maty Ryan is a ****ing imbecile. We deserved to lose the match, we were woeful, still way off the pace of this league and utterly toothless in forward areas. If ever there was a game to make a couple of errors in (I...

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    His handling will improve or he will be dropped is the point I think. As the previous post has pointed out, he has done some good work that has not been mentioned, things that Stockdale would likely not have managed. The problem is people judge on what is plainly obvious, that his handling has...

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    Looks like a picture of Duffy getting beaten in the air to me - and in answer to the question, perhaps because he needs to jump? Pretty sure even Manuel Neuer would have needed some leverage to save that (Ryan gets a touch by the way). At the match in real time I had thought it hit Maguire's...

    [Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

    Feck me, after that toothless performance we're blaming the goalie again? I think we should be more concerned at the lack of a real chance carved out in 180+mins other than a fortuitous bounce to Duffy from splayed shot. But don't let that distract you from a good witch hunt. Carry on.
