Karius

The pundits write off many a keeper very quickly.

Look at the stick Bravo has got.

This is a keeper who has won everything. Carra and Neville are both 'show us your medals' type pundits, but here's a keeper who has all the medals and they were slaughtering him before he even played a game for City.

I think keeper punditry in this country is very poor.

What do outfield players even know about keeping? They haven't done their A licences in keeper coaching.

It's a specialist position and a lot of the time I just don't think they have a clue what they are talking about.

exactly, what do they know about goal keeping, it makes me laugh as though Neville and Carra never made mistakes.

If pundits didn't criticize mistakes they would be out of a job.

There's nothing wrong with being critical.

Nobody is saying it wasn't a mistake.

There's a difference between saying he's made a mistake and should do better there to basically writing him off as a professional footballer.

I'm sorry, I just don't understand people who say karius needs to work on his distribution?

People seem to have been waiting to pounce on him for a single mistake.

Largely the same with Lovren. Play boss for 10 months, get one thing wrong and you're back to being a donkey.

Maybe we were just spoilt with reina hyypia and carat her.

sky did a statement on his distribution it is only 40 percent accurate pass I think he is 17th in the keeper stats for passing my that is awful for someone whom we thought was meant to have good distribution

That 40% stat is rubbish.

His pass completion is 67%, which is decent.

I am only quoting what sky showed on their stats on Monday night football what makes you think their stats are in accurate compared to the stats you seen?

Because the only keepers who are near 40% play for long ball teams like Palace and Watford.

No way Karius is at 40%.

That's WhosOff who gave him at 63.5%.

Squawka have him at 67%.

Both far more believable than 40%.

Carra says he should shut up and prove his critics wrong.

Carra is a crap pundit as is Redknapp

I think Carra gets too emotional about Liverpool and goes over the top.

He also writes for the Daily Mail, which is worse than being a serial killer.
