A little unlucky at Utd as initially fouled and then nobody blocked the donkey. Presumably, you would also acknowledge the two excellent saves that ensured we won?
But yes, definitely a missed punch.
But as per my post, he is a lot younger than those mentioned, and is still learning.
The fact he is in the Spain squad at such a young age was impressive in itself. He clearly missed Roberts when he left.
I don’t disagree re Chelsea, but think he’s probably the best they have currently, and...
A bit harsh, could have been a yard further out, but not a pure error, as in a fumble, handling error, woefully slow out. Positionally could have been better, I agree, but you could argue that on a number of goals we’ve conceded subsequently.
Edit - there’s always an error somewhere even...
Man Utd? Really. Liverpool as well? You’ll have to talk me through those.
I would say playing for Spain would indicate he’s quite good, if not ‘exceptional’. I’m not sure of many other goalies of a similar age who are as good, obviously IMO.
So on that basis perhaps harsh Sanchez was dropped given the amount of ‘errors’ by outfield players?
I’m not sorry Steele is in goal, but I’m not having Sanchez made lots of errors, because it is inaccurate. He remains an exceptional goalie, whose passing was not good enough for how we play...
Well sorry, but that is nonsense. Steele is exceptional with his feet, Sanchez is average IMO. That does not make every poor pass an error, otherwise we have a lot of poor players even yesterday.
Sure, but the point is, as you say it is sound footballing reasons, not sound goalkeeping reasons.
Appreciate, the game has changed and RdZ places a lot of emphasis on footballing skills, and that is good enough for me, but the whole rhetoric around Sanchez is a poor goalkeeper is just wrong...
