Romey 1878 Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Thought Tim was good today, good reaction saves which will no doubt his fault for having to make them in the first place. Lets be honest, Matt, for that Pelle save he'd put himself in no man's land with his positioning. He should have had that ball all day long. BUT, it was an absolutely class save after that. Truly up there with the best you'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Creative midfielder Winger Forward That would be my three priorities. These are my three priorities as well. We also would need a CB before a keeper, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 My priorities: Mirallas tied down Another top winger Lennon signed Young good prospect CB Cover CF - good quality Ball playing central midfielder (if Barkley isn't going to be moved there) Not asking for much like!

seve Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Most important position on the pitch,his worst season yet has a couple of ordinary gams in April (where he did not cock up) and the first six months of the season are ignored just shows total lack of ambition and the direction we are heading in. Martinez totally ignoring the fact of leaking goals was our biggest problem, but you would expect me to say that, so after 55 years I wont be attending goodison park next season.

Shukes Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 To be fair Crusty, Tim had a few really good games since he's been back, also quite a few clean sheets. When Robles had three clean sheets he was the new messiah although he also got lucky on a few occasions that we all picked up on. Doesn't Tim deserve the same treatment?

Im not sure about quite a few clean sheets in proportion to Robles 3 on the trot in very few games I like the way you say Robles was lucky but Tim had good games a bit of bias there? I thought his treatment was shameful, when Tim was fit again and reinstated it must have drained what little confidence he had I can not for the life of me see how a good April makes up for a pathetic 6 months, most of his games in April he never had a save to make ie man u and he just let 3 in against a relegation side. I don't even know if Robles is the answer I only Know Tim is not Edited May 8, 2015 by seve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know if Robles is the answer I only Know Tim is not I dont see Tim at fault for any of the 3 against Villa, he has had a piss poor season yes, but to lay blame on him for those goals is beyond me. He has made some crucial saves at crucial points the last month. You're right - it does not out weigh the negatives, however its not fair to give undue criticism.

markjazzbassist Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 i'm with crusty, i don't think GK is the more important position on the pitch, but it's an extremely important one. Marshalls the defense and keeps them in position and defends the goal. 2 large duties there, and Howard is just past it, but RM has spoken so the only thing we can hope for is an injury and Robles gets a full run out with the Griffiths or Stindrich lads backup.

He has made some crucial saves at crucial points the last month. You're right - it does not out weigh the negatives, however its not fair to give undue criticism.You could say he saw the first one coming in from a long way out for the first header that depends on what you think a good keeper should do he could have come out he saw it was in the air for long enough, let jags know he was coming and at least given benteke something to think about I find it a strange comment when he let 3 in it was nothing to do with him, like when he let 5 in in Europe nothing to do with him it sounds like you are making my case for, if a goal goes in Tim is not interfering with play. There are people like Czech, kasper schmeichel, begovic out there for not a lot of money. by the way I did not say it was his fault he let 3 in against villa I just said he let thee in against a relegation side Edited May 8, 2015 by seve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I agree Robles was treated unfairly after some good performances. What I mean about being lucky are the moments where a better forward would have punished him...let's face it there were a few. And Robles three clean sheets were as.much about the defence as him...He wasn't making ten works class saves a match to keep us in the match. Now Tims 3 in 4 matches statistically should match that shouldn't it? But for some reason it's not as good...that's the bit that boggles me. Two players have pretry much identical records but one is better than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how Coleman managed to keep Harper off the ball for Jags. For that goal if you watch where Jags came from to mark him, it's more on him for me. Not many keepers would have stopped any of those in the Kyiv game, infact I do recall Tim making a class save when we were perhaps down 1-0. I think perhaps you need to stand behind the goals for a game and witness how quickly it happens. He's been at fault for plenty, but sometimes there is nothing a keeper can do.

So you are saying Robles 3 clean sheets were because the striker was piss poor or the defence was better the same defence Tim was behind,for his first 4 months of the season and I take it tims 3 clean sheets were against top class strikers and the defence had nothing to do with it.How bias can you get and you have the nerve to tell me im not being fair. Robles performance against west ham was outstanding then he was dropped. if you want to talk about luck and poor finishing look at that world cup match of Tims super saves again. As for the 5 in the Europa cup 2 were unstoppable the other 3 he could have done better. Edited May 9, 2015 by seve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
