+1, it was a good effort, little time to react for him and it went a little funny just before his hands, best thing is to just forget about and work harder!

I do think though that if we get further in the CL then we should give MAtS at least some game time in the league. Unfair to expect him to play well whilst only playing once a month IMO.

That might be an option and if it happens then I am sure that Bravo will understand the need for such a move. First the team has to defeat Man City which won't be as easy as last year IMO.

While I also agree that he should and could have done better on the goal he conceded, there are a couple of factors that came together that I think caught him a bit off guard. I think he would make that save in a normal attacking situation, here's why:
Jonathan Dos Santos was laying on the ground in pain while we had the ball, and many Villareal players were looking at the ref and our players to pause the game. Suarez then makes a bad pass that was intended to be the start of a counterattack, but the ball is misplaced and finds its way straight into the feet of Trigueros. Trigueros then proceeds to hit it perfectly with a lot of power, with no spin so the ball "dances" a bit, and I think this catches Ter Stegen "on his heels". We effectively went from a confusing situation where we have the ball seemingly on our way to counterattack them, to the ones being attacked in a splitsecond. Had this been a normal attack from Villareal where he's ready, I think he'd save it 10/10 times.
Still, the mistake was to lower his guard and not be ready, but he'll learn from this. The first save he did was so impressive because he had effectively been a spectator for 47 minutes but managed to stay alert enough to make a fantastic save just before halftime, which just makes the goal he conceded in the second half that much more frustrating. Luckily it probably doesn't matter much as the tie is effectively over if we just score one goal at the El Madrigal.

In Lucho we trust!
I think he can forget about replacing Bravo in La Liga for this season at least!

Damn at least bravo now will get less hate for the moment lol , hard to forget all the hate from ter stegen fans "fc b" especially" about bravos conceded goal against bilbao. Calling him to be benched no good etc, totally unfair and ironic that now the same thing happens for ter stegen? All goalkeepers will make blunder, fact of the matter is ter stegen has been solid this season and made a couple of great saves in this match, i hate this argueing about who should start etc undermining each keeper quality.both keepers have been awesome this season in their respective competition and without them we will certainly be weaker, bravo is doing good so far in la liga, ter stegen good in cl and copa at least for the season it should not change., we should be happy that we are doing great with both of them. Ter stegen is quality and hopefully this blunder wont affect him mentally.

It's shame he made that mistake. The save he made in the first half was quality.

He made a mistake but he saved us with an incredible save a few minutes later before HT.

That save was before his howler. Villarreal scored on the 2nd half.
We'd be stupid to let him go

This.
Reminded me of that golazo that Diego scored for Atletico at the nou camp which ended up being the deciding CL knockout goal last season. We get way too confident at the camp nou especially now that we score a few goals a game. That goal was a collective fail not just mats.
