25 - Wojciech Szczęsny

Don Juan Laporta Estruch

He has been a breath of fresh air but we have perhaps gone overboard about his performances due to the desperation of wanting to move on from Ter Stegen.

The fact is that's the second time he has been caught moving slowly off his line, resulting in him conceding a penalty, in the Champions League.

There is a good argument that he is not quick enough for Flick's high line style.

I would still like to invest in a goalkeeper in the summer, especially with Joan Garcia performing better and better.

Ya he was at fault with that penalty thingy. But the guy did give us some massive saves.

Behonest, if this was the terrorist in goal, we woud be crashing out of this tournement like the last 10 fucking years.
Thank fuck we have him and not the terrorist. And I am happy with that. Dont care if he has a brainfart here and there.

Massive saves? You mean those three or four shots the came straight at his body?

The argument that other goalkeepers would have made even more blunders is not very convincing.

That penalty was totally avoidable and it's not the first time he does something like that. It could cost us much more in the semis if he pulls shit like that again. Lets's imagine Mats did that, people would be pulling out their forks and knives immediately.

Massive saves might be a hyperbole. The one just before the penalty Kruffufle, I would say Terrorist would be letting that on in.

The argument is still true because we didn't lose the game because of the GK's blunders. And he did make some saves.
And give me a break, after years of seeing humiliations in that GK's position, one can be relieved and ecstatic that we have one that doesn't do that.

I'm relieved that we weren't eliminated. But that certainly wasn't because of our goalkeeper, who blundered just as badly as Ter Stegen has in the past.

Including the two disallowed, Szczesny let in five goals, gave away a penalty, and made some ordinary blocks. I don't find much to be "ecstatic" about there.

I won't come at you for not being "ecstatic". It is your prerogative.
But for me, after a decade of blunders in the UCL knockout stages. Since the Terrorist is here, we have only reached the Semi's twice in that whole Decade. And I am grateful to Tek for that.
Give me a break.
