JoeQuince Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Joel. If he didn't save that penalty, and if he didn't have a few other major interventions, this game would've looked very different. Honorable mentions to Ross, Rom, Cleverley, Lennon and Oviedo. All were really good today. Quote
nogs Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Robles for the penalty save. He had one cross he came for and missed but apart from that he was superb and got all the big moments right. Goalkeepers win matches with big saves, he did that today. Quote
markjazzbassist Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Joel. Another clean sheet and the penalty block seemed to have "leveled him up" in confidence terms. He was a boss the rest of the match. Quote
Matt Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Barry. What a class act.this for me but Joel deserves a massive shout. Thought McCarthy really picked up second half. The only bad player was Rom though he still managed to score (his lack of celebration spoke volumes to me) Quote
c1982 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 this for me but Joel deserves a massive shout. Thought McCarthy really picked up second half. The only bad player was Rom though he still managed to score (his lack of celebration spoke volumes to me) I thought the celebration was more 'let's not fuck this one up this time'. Joel for me for giving us something to build on. Agree with Barry and thought Barkley was always a threat. Quote
Newty82 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 I went with Robles. Brilliant penalty save...and it wasn't exactly a shit penalty. It was fully pelted! He also commands his area well, comes off his line smartly and seems to communicate well with his players. Confidence grows in this bloke with each game. And I'm sure his confidence is boosting too.

EFC-Paul Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Robles closely followed by Barry Quote
evilweevil666 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Joel, Barry, and Barkley in that order for me. Aside from the penalty save, we also just seem more composed and confident at the back with Joel. Gives us a much easier foundation to build off of. Quote
HKR toffee Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Mori motm for me solid at the back won everything in the air Oviedo a close second Quote
pete0 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Oviedo done very well against Iturbe, was noticble that Bournemouth switched their focus to the opposite side when they actually bothered to go forward. Quote

markjazzbassist Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Oviedo done very well against Iturbe, was noticble that Bournemouth switched their focus to the opposite side when they actually bothered to go forward. Yes and I thought Coleman was a liability today. Didn't offer much in attack , crosses were awful, and was constantly being beaten by King. Quote
pete0 Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Yes and I thought Coleman was a liability today. Didn't offer much in attack , crosses were awful, and was constantly being beaten by King.Completely agree. He must have had cold legs. Quote
Bill Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Commentator on BBC gave it to lukaku, I'm not sure who he was but I'd give it to barry, he seems to get better with age. Robles another clean sheet, no goals concedes in the cup so far. Quote
Shukes Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Got to be Robles for me. Such an important moment in the match and inspired us a bit. Glad to be proven wrong by hwum, hope he continues. Quote
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Commentator on BBC gave it to lukaku, I'm not sure who he was but I'd give it to barry, he seems to get better with age. Robles another clean sheet, no goals concedes in the cup so far. Yeah I watched it back this morning and was completely dumbfounded that Keown gave it to Lukaku Quote
Guest rusty747 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Posted February 22, 2016 Joel for me, not only because of his own performance but because of the calmness and composure he seems to give the back four. Just might have saved 20 million quid as well as a penalty with that performance- might not need to buy a new 'keeper in the summer if he continues playing like that. Quote
pete0 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Posted February 22, 2016 Oviedo has done great but at home I think Baines is better.I think Oviedo adds more to the team as a whole. Can't put my finger on why, but we gel better as a team. Quote
