electronicmaji Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 How did you guys get a goalie that was worse than the gringo? for 5 million pounds? Jesus Ospina cost Arsenal 3. You could throw a rock and find a decent keeper for 5 million pounds if you look in the right places. I mean you could of gotten Robert Green on a free. I mean goalkeepers have to be top players - there is zero room for the kind of mistakes we see consistently from the Villa goalies. Not even the A-League goalies or MLS goalies are that bad! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Who's Jesus Ospina and is he available for loan? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 He's basically looking like David De Gea did early on at Man Utd - punching everything he can, making good saves but also making some poor decisions. He'll learn from those - I'm amazed people are writing him off so soon. He's 21! Keep playing him and boosting his confidence and we could have our first choice keeper sorted for 12 years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Robert Green has been even worse at Leeds. Gollini should be given a few more starts but the errors can't keep on continuing. I'm just bemused Steer is so out of favour...surely he should be ahead of Bunn and on the bench? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing a rock at a goalkeeper isn't actually a bad idea. If he catches it, you know he's alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I just went out into the garden and threw a rock, unfortunately no decent keeper. Just an angry neighbour with a dented car. Theory busted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip-side - if he doesn't, he probably won't be. Could be useful if the club considered bidding for a small heath keeper. Win/win. Might work for outfield players as well.

Mjvilla Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Shame he had to go off today, did whatever he had to do with minimal fuss and firmly believe he would have saved the first one. Any news on his injury? I'm guessing he was a little shaken up by the bang he took? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might also have flapped at some crosses, sliced a clearance to an opposition player or parried a shot to a strikers feet 5 yards out.
