[Albion] Maty Ryan. Discuss.

Another excellent performance.

He certainly looks a bargain given the price Liverpool, Citeh and Chelsea have paid for a decent top flight keeper.

Should be player of the month!

Didn't realise until hearing it on the radio but he is off on international duty in January

I’d totally forgotten about that [emoji17]

West Ham, Liverpool, Man Utd, Fulham, Watford. Going on the last few weeks, we'll need a decent replacement to keep that lot out.

World class keeper, under the media radar.

Maty is very good and has avoided the inevitable keeper error recently.

But the overall standard of goalkeeping is very high these days.

We should block that.

Socceroos are shit, pointless pursuit travelling all that way.

Maybe he can qualify for the Irish ?

Prediction: some posters on here will be calling Matty Ryan the best gk in the PL by the end of 2018.

spence said:
More than 30 million. Some of the prices Premier league clubs have paid for goalkeepers recently is ridiculous. Ryan is without doubt one of the best in this league.

Blimey, somebody knows a good keeper when he sees one.

BTW, do not make a loyal player forsake his national team because he will somehow lose his great loyalty.

If you have 5 minutes, with a cup of tea, it really is a worth your while spending it reading this thread.

Some posters have got off very lightly, over Maty, esp when they're holding centre stage about other new signings.

5 minutes? For 41 pages?

Not long enough.

26 pages, plenty of time.

Just scanned the thread from the start. Not going to bounce the ‘he’s shit’ quotes, because there are too many of them. Tide starts to turn around #350, and by #500 we’ve got the best keeper ever. Lots of those who posted in the first 350 are nowhere to be seen, obviously. Presumably choked on their humble pie [emoji23][emoji23]

Absolute object lesson in giving a new signing a bit of time. Mistakes in his first three games (a friendly, the runaway champions, and the former champions) and barely a slip since.

I'd forgotten, until someone mentioned it a little while ago, Ryan actually played really well against Athletico.

The other reason the thread is worth a read is things like his double save at Old Trafford, I enjoyed watching that again.

Agreed. Other than Locadia, obvs. Utter shithouse.

Maty should have held onto this one:-

Great read here from Maty, maybe a slight nod towards NSC near the end of the article too.

I watched all his Confederations Cup games and on balance wasn't impressed. Distribution was rushed, seemed keen to come out rashly, bad tendency to parry when he could catch.
I saw the 2nd half of Atletico on a stream and seem to remember he did quite well there.
At the Man City game - one great save, probably should have held Dunk's mess up, distribution not great. By no means a bad performance.
Watched a stream today and I think he could have done better for both goals. A bit of a worry that he can't seem to hold onto shots and didn't command his box too well.

Having said all that I was distinctly unimpressed by Stockdale for a good portion of that 1st season. By the time he left I loved him and was sad to see him go.

In summary, we have to give Ryan time. It's early days in the deep end in a team that has a lot of gelling to do and are on a very steep learning curve. None of the new signings have looked good so far. Let's give them all a chance and not get on their backs. They need us to get behind them more than ever now.

Sensible post by #61 alert!
