We played well today but didn't convert chances, and that's what wins matches.
One thing that struck me again, after the arsenal match, everyone was raving about ddg and rightly so. I mentioned at the time that he's almost the best but not the best as he doesn't command his area and doesn't come out for crosses. I'm sorry, but the cross in the final second should have been cleared by ddg.
We see him making unbelievable saves but I some instances it will be easier to come out for the crosses.
Shame as we dropped two points to the chasing pack.

IMO DDG is the best in the wrld. And for the keepers that 'command their area' - those keepers don't make saves like DDG does so that in itself nakes DDG the bezt keeper in the world!

Clutching when blaming DDG in my opinion. The one truly world class player we have.

Great goalkeeper but he is a bit of a wimp. I frequently see him squirm as a defender gets a block in, or when the ball is in the air and a collision is coming. Two areas of his game to improve if he is to become the greatest goalkeeper of all time and both are improvable: 1 - Organise your defence (shout/ talk more) . 2- Man Up, come for crosses, take everything out.

Awesome keeper, been at fault for a few goals recently imo, but saved a lot more where Romero or others will have conceded a lot more, difference between fighting for a CL place or EL place, he is that important to our underperforming team.

{Ed007's Note - So is that Great Goalkeeper or Awesome Goalkeeper?}

He's uncountably one of the best. But that cross came a long distance and ended up 5 yards from him. Keepers fault.
There was another incident in the first half which McGuire nearly scored from and it was identical.
I'm not saying he's not a good keeper, but EVS and Peter schmeichel would have come out and punched or caught the ball.

{Ed007's Note - It's not just DDG it's just more fashionable to punch the ball etc, if you're getting a 2 handed punch on the ball you should be able to catch it for 50 or 60 k a week. What was a sweeper/keeper when guys like Schmeichel and Packie Bonner were the best in the world?}

Agree with that beast he does look slow off his line sometimes I wasn't even bothered for vardys goal when it went over the top I just expected him to come and clear it.

Really disappointed we didn't win I thought we played well 😣.

He can't come out for the second goal as that cross is coming across the middle of the his box with so many players potentially getting a touch on it. If he commits and goes where it ended up and simple touch or bounce of a player goes into an empty goal people would be saying what on earth was he doing out there.

The fact that it went over all our defenders and ends up where it did is a defensive mistake and not DDG.
