His his all round play that's so awful though.
His decision making, coming for crosses he shouldnt, punching when should be catching.
Has no presence in goal, flaps at crosses....I could go on!

One bad game and everybody starts blaming one person and saying he's not good enough. We were playing Liverpool for Christ sake, the whole team wasn't good enough, we didn't create enough and our defence need to realize we can't just keep the ball around the back 4 against players like Suarez, Carroll, Gerrard, Downing and so on. It was always going to be tough but to just have a go at one player and say he's not good enough is very silly.

You are right of course, but Brezovan should have been wearing a clowns outfit for his decision making today. Fair play he saved a penalty, so he did one thing right.

Plenty of players had an off day today, but unfotunately Brezovan has now had 3 games where he has been Shaky (today being the worst), the thread was started to point out that unlike many other positions there does not appear to be a very strong alternative in the squad (unless Gonzalez is the solution, but I would question why he is not making the bench, if that is Gus' thinking...). Brezovan has, and I hope will again, have good games this season, but given today was a big game and the abject level of his performance, Gus must be begining to have doubts in the longer term...

Iv'e got no problem with Brez punching, all foreign keepers do that, but FFS, he punches like a volley ball player setting up a team mate.
He uses both hands and punches it up in the air, as if setting a team mate to come in for the smash, you need to put your fist through the ball and clear the penalty area.
Today was an action replay of what he did on Tuesday, very poor goalkeeping, the g/k coach is as much at fault as Brez, although he was poor.

Gutted for Brezovan today. Would have hoped that his piss-poor punch for the first goal against Millwall on Tuesday might have encouraged the goalkeeping coach to do some catching practice with the lad; doesn't appear that this happened however. An embarrassing punching performance again-you can tell Greer has little confidence in him which is understandable.
Hope that he can rebuild his confidence (which must be shot to pieces right now) as he looked a good keeper in the run-up to 'transfer deadline day' (which was I guess unfortunate timing of good form!). Seems like a good bloke so hope it works out for him; personally not signing up for the Reinstall Ankergren campaign (if one is launched... which I hope it isn't).

A good friend of mine is an Aberdeen fan, and he said he never really felt comfortable with Gonzalez in goal, and he wouldn't fancy him at Championship level. Just his opinion but that's about all I know about him so far. Couldn't do much worse though!
Its not one bad game though is it! look at the highlights v leeds. Millwall he got worse and his stupid punching from crosses when its easier to catch it led to their goal. And today is three on the bounce! Lets not try and pretend hes decent!
While I agree with this I still think Brezovan's limitations were exposed by Liverpool, I just don't understand why he can't catch the ball instead of punching it - he really let us down, although the way we couldn't get possession in midfield and didn't mark their wide men played a significant role in what happened
Don't forget Casper flaps and palms the ball away 100 times worse than Brez ever does. Perhaps it is a real problem with the goalkeeping coaching we have?

Although Dunks OG was a bit naff, Brez should have easily dealt with that. He is not good enough, At all unfortunately.

Punching is fine and a good way to clear the danger if you actually punch. Brezovan doesn't seem to go aggressively in to punch ball away he just flaps at it and doesn't get any distance on them and they hardly leave the box causing havoc in the defence.
He was very poor.He looked nervous and made some strange decisions.
It could easily have been 10 if the penalty,Carrolls two very close headers,Gerrards shot that Henderson should have put in or Suarez's chip when Brezovan went walkabout had gone in.Or is that eleven?
Another who will be OK in leagues one or two,but is out of his depth in a team pushing for the Premiership.
He'll end up at Crawley!

That is up there with shit gk performances that we have seen recent years .
Does feel like he was getting lucky during Jan and this was coming .
Marginally better than Anks but we badly need a new keeper and one that doesn't punch when can catch be good

A complete clown and embarrassment today and turned our defence into a quivering wreck as a result ! Think I'd rather see El-Abd in goal - at least if he went for a punch he'd friggin mean it and take out anyone who dared to get in his way !!!!!
