Yeah. He needs gogogadget arms to reach those unstoppable shots

Ffs they were right in the corner

I`m more concerned about sprinting out of his area into no mans land and flapping at the odd cross

How about the defence try and ensure we don't keep letting whoever it is have these shots.

Absolutely no chance with the goal....cracking finish.

Achilles heels in keepers is bad news. Take our keeper Onana for example, his Achilles heel is football.

Only weakness I’ve seen so far is his decision to punch/parry instead of catching the ball

Sell him, 1st opportunity, bring in Lloris

I raised this during the game after he patti-caked a gentle lob up (not criticising him in general and I agree he has been excellent).
But if the reason he doesn't try to catch anything is a flaw then it's unlikely to be in his decision making, and more likely to be a technical weakness or for some reason Ange has told him to go with it (or a combination of the two).
I find it difficult to believe if it was an issue with his decision making alone he would still be doing it this far into the season. But who knows.
Would like to see that change too, but main concern after today is that weakness low to his right. Hopefully they can sort it out.

Yes that one's obvious as well but not as concerning as the issue I raised.

vicario has played the best half season of PL football that any spurs keeper has ever played

The weakness was the balls being played behind the defence not the keeper. Made a good save to keep that danjuma effor off the crossbar out.

He's made lots of good saves and has been brilliant.

Regarding the flaw. You make an interesting and relevant point.

It doesn't explain though why Everton kept going for bottom right hand corner (and doesn't really explain why each time they did Vic was comfortably beaten).

Anyway, it's something to look for.
I for one will be delighted next time I see him saving one low to his right.

Just watched the highlights.

What an absolute mess this article is

What planet are you on? 🤔👽

The two BEST keepers in the PL are Allison & Vicario👍

The point was pretty evident from the highlights. Beaten 3 times low to his right. 2 went in, 1 hit the post.
Most of their shots they went low right as I said in the game. Enough to suggest it was a deliberate tactic against Vic.
Hopefully can sort it out anyway and bring it up to the excellent standard of the rest of his game.

This one must be from that other place!

Isn't it great to have a keeper who earns us points rather than chucking them away as his predecessor so often did.

Even the most hardcore Hugo apologists must see the difference.

To say Dyche has found his Achilies heel is stretching the imagination to the extreme

Tough to have a keeper who doesn’t one area he doesn’t excel in, and they probably wouldn’t be at Tottenham.

He’s been a good signing.
