1 - Victor Valdes

[jamrock]

its all too funny good keepers are those who have poor defenses infront them.
because buffon,cech,nuer and iker when at his best has nothing but average defenders playing with them and a team sitting with two banks of four doesnt protect the keeper as much as possession footy. too many exhibit a look of understanding of the game thats what happens when your football knowledge comes from listening to many pundits

From now on Im not going to have a moment of rest when the ball is close to our box. Valdes shat the bed with that one.

 

[Meitux]

he should learn from those silly mistakes but it doesnt seem that he did for the moment,but if this goal and and score doesnt affect us so much winning the cup its fine

 

[Vegy]

Well, he has his moments. Lets remember that he saved our asses in the last Supercopa in Madrid.

It's simple. Yesterday was a supercopa game. And in cup games, it's usually pinto who plays.

A 3-1 would be to boring. So he thought "What would Pinto do?" So he decided to spice things up a little! Which I think he did pretty well.

 

[Barcilliant]

Its just a lapsE in concentration. It happens but like you guys said they cost dearly. Anyway Valdes is far from over but hopefully dithin the next few years he will get an able deputy.

He needs competition not a deputy. He has it too easy at the moment. Over the last few seasons he has made errors that an inexperienced rookie would make. These have cost us. He is a good keeper but has severe lapses of concentration. His problem is he always wants to take the difficult route. Just keep it simple you plank Valdes

 

[mixer]

You are defending him again... Maybe he is a good GK, but he does big and silly mistakes in important matches. Everything madridista says is worth shit, but they are right in one thing; great defenders makes him look good.

 

[Yugi]

that is my advice for him
I love you Vicky anyway, just don´t do it again, it almost got me a small heart-attack

 

[HerpDerp]

Cech, Neur, Casillas, Reina and many more experienced goalies are all much better than him.

Neuer and Reina?

They are the kings at making silly mistakes.

 

[diegomessi]

Victor is a great keeper, possibly the best in the world at 1 on 1's but once every 2 months he does some crazy sh*t that you cannot explain, it is something you just get used to I suppose...


although I still maintain that he cost us the CL last season

 

[xaviniesta]

although I still maintain that he cost us the CL last season

after messi missing the penalty and giving the ball away just before the goal happened?

Casillas cost Real Madrid 2 points already in the first match day while turning Pepe into Pablo Escobar. Just saying. I rewatched Valdes' mistake like 10 times now and I think Adriano is to blame to 50 % as well. He plays the ball back to his weaker foot while Di Maria is instantly pressing. Valdes barely had time to react. Still at fault of course. But Di Maria reacts really really quickly. Well done by him.

you can be a Valdes fanboy, but you can't be blind.

Valdes had the ball for like 6 seconds before Di Maria got close to him, he had all the time to control the ball and pass with ease and comfort but ....

 

[Barca_070]

How can you blame Adriano? If Valdes just kicked it away there wont be any problem.
