looks like owd elephant man is after kirky again, i hope so! 5 million for a guy who cant get a paw to any of the goals yesterday, everyone slags off scotland cos he cant hit a barn door but no one says anything about kirky who cant get his hand to a medicine ball never mind a football
14 March 2010 at 2:17 pm #26411Eh?
Kirkland makes the odd mistake, just like every goalkeeper does, but he’s one of the best keepers in the Premier League.
Let’s not just criticise everybody now because things aren’t going so well. Have a breather, think about it, and you’ll come to your senses.
14 March 2010 at 3:32 pm #26424maybe he does make a mistake but his positioning was awful yesterday, jussi made a good save yesterday and you hear someone yell bloody jaskalinan again , thats not the type of comment you would hear about kirky, also i thought it was kinda hard on stoikovic being dropped once kirky was fit again as he didnt really do anything wrong………. sorry for the spelling lol
14 March 2010 at 3:58 pm #26432Jaaskalainen does make a lot of very good saves, but by a similar measure, he’s very continental in regards to his tendency to punch and palm balls away.
Kirkland has been a very good goalkeeper for us over the past few seasons, and for me, he’s the most irreplaceable player that we have. He couldn’t have done much more with the goals yesterday. He was unfortunate with Elmanders.
Stojkovic flaps quite a lot, and not being able to speak the lingo properly surely detracts from his ability to organise a defence consisting of a thoroughbred Scot with similar linguistic incapabilities and Titus Bramble, whom in three years has shown no ability to communicate or even to possess the rudimentary requirements of verbal dialogue.
14 March 2010 at 6:31 pm #26460Kirkland is a joke. i have always said it and wont go back on it. He cant save ANYTHING and even if Stokovic cant speak ‘the lingo’… Kirkland doesn’t say anything anyway!

You James and Kitt Green Dave are blaming Kirkland for shots he could do nothing about.

I’m not sayin he could do anything about them. He is just awful in general and his positioning is bad.

no, he isnt. not by a long way. he is great at reaction saves and 1 on 1’s but when it comes to corners or crosses he is more likely to be found on the floor or at behind a crowd of players. his positional play is terrible and he cant boss or marshall players anywhere near as well as filan could.
im 10 stone and 5ft 11 and would come of better than him if challenging him for a ball.

You say what now?
How many balls does he flap at (criticisms aimed a lot of Premiership keepers, and a factor that is used by many to judge how ‘good’ a ‘keeper is)? Very few.
He doesn’t come for every corner because if he did, he’d be vacating the goal far too often. We have defenders in the box for a reason – so they can head it clear.
Terrible positional play? You’ve just said that he’s ‘great at reaction saves’, and without good positional play, he’d be in no situation to make them.
