OR is beaten to the ball by the attacker because it is still an exceptional cross.The issue here is his starting position was all wrong. With the ball in comfortable West Ham possession on their right (not in a shooting position) he should have been a couple of yards off his line in an aggressive position for a cross. If he did that, he probably just catches that cross. Or at a minimum punches it clear.
BUT he would certainly have a better chance of stopping the danger, than staying where he did.
I wonder whether the issue with Bart, are his failings, lack of confidence, or the coaching?
Whichever it is, he really isn't living up to his reputation at present.
