25 - Wojciech Szczęsny

[Horatio]

Finally we have done away with “why pena not playing” posts as he has convinced rest of you

 

[Bran the Greenseer]

Yeah Szczęsny needs to be starting, idc if Ter Stegen is ready early.

 

[Skalman]

Good goalie, not a huge surprise to be honest

 

[ZenI]

Was very good, probably saved us at least 2 points!

 

[fergus90]

Earnt himself a pack of Marlboro's!

 

[BJJ]

He has a big presence both character wise and physique wise.
It's no surprise Flick has him as starter.

 

[jamrock]

Yep he's the one.

Pena made not have made any obvious mistakes, but he just doesn't command the back line and gives the players confidence.

If we win the league this season, I will find Pena and scam him for costing us 3 league titles in a row last season.

Wait until he makes a mistake.. it will be back and Flick blamed.

 

[Barcaman]

One of those examples of: If someone told you that in few months...

There needs to be a movie made if this season pans out the way team deserves

 

[JamDav1982]

He is one of those GKs that balls seems to find and hits them.

While Pena is at full stretch as ball goes by him.

He is also a brave gk. Many times went all in. Missed that with Mats

 

[BJJ]

For the love of God I don't want Olaf back. In my pecking order Tek 1 Pena 2 and Olaf should be sold.

True. He is willing to pay the price to make a save. Stegen no.

 

[TemporaryFan]

Szczęsny's form sinusoid is up...Everyone loves Tek now.

 

[odrzut]

Szczęsny is great, he'll stop 5 100% chances a game (and blunder 1 easy save). Still worth it.

In Polish NT he always competed with Fabiański, and Fabiański was considered more reliable/boring, but Szczęsny had higher ceiling and was better at saving penalties. All the best "bus parked" Polish NT games that were saved by the goalie were with Szczęsny despite the fact that Fabiański played a lot.

As I said
