And some here say improve the defence and he will be fine, every damn defence will leek some chances no defence is 100% proof, this guy conceded 2 goals from 2 shots. I cant fucking stand him he gets in my nerve we lost so many title's cause of him.

I am not buying a story how Mats just isn't guilty for anything.

-- the defense was guilty
-- xx, yy, zz (too many players already this Season) scored the best goal of their career against us
-- blah, blah

I am looking at it this way:
= you know how some attackers need 10 chances to score one goal
-- and they are always either unlucky, Gk makes an incredible saves, their shots hit the post or are inches wide
= and then, on the other hand, there are guys like Messi or XX players who will score 3-4-5 goals from the same amount of chances (the furst guy scored 1 goal from 10 shots)
-- well, some guys are just scoring (people will say that they are either lucky, scoring tap ins, well positioned, scoring deflected goals or who knows what)
-- while other guys will just struggle and struggle with scoring

The same is with Gks.
-- some are always "lucky"
-- opponents are hitting posts, opponents slip when they see our Gk, or our Gk makes a wonder/or lucky save with a head, foot, knee, who knows what

On the other hand, some other Gks are just always "unlucky", and on every match they concede insanely spectacular goals.

I am not saying that Mats is (that) bad, or that he wasn't good last season, or that he won't turn out to be good in the end, but currently something is SERIOUSLY WRONG with him.

This isn't just being unlucky.
He is doing a lot of things wrong, he is always positioned wrong for a few inches, his reactions are constantly a few miliseconds too wrong/too slow and it seems that the defense and him are not clicking too well currently.

Plus, he has that body language that is constantly saying something like:
"I couldn't do anything about that goal. I won't jump... what's the point? You can't do anything, I can't save that shot. The shot was too good..."

Of course you could argue that none of the goals were his fault. But that's not really the point, is it? If we're happy with goalkeepers not being at fault for any goal, we are content with mediocrity. Great goalkeepers save shots that you wouldn't expect them to. I can't recall a single save this season where I thought: 'Wow, it's good to have ter Stegen in goal'. And I really don't think all shots on our goal this season have been unstoppable.

A post worthy of being bolded. This.

I'm reading it with the voice of Graeme Souness in my head for extra emphasis.

Dawg did you just copy paste something from the same forum? Even amoebagician doesn't do that.
