The other first
team keeper at Werder Bremen, Raphael Wolf, has also moved on to Fortuna Düsseldorf.
Not exact matches
If you look
at the
teams that have finished above us in the last ten years they have all had a quality
keeper, Cech, Courtois, Reina, De Gea, Van Der Saar....
It's just that we think that
at times like when the whole
team is off the
keeper should save us... and yeah someti s that's what it is.
The 26 - year - old custodian is well known to Louis van Gaal, the Old Trafford manager having made the
keeper his first - choice between the sticks during his time in charge of the Dutch national
team set - up, and the Daily Star believes a deal to bring in Cillessen will depend on David De Gea's position
at the club.
-- Ospina: 2nd choice
keeper but wants to be # 1 (he does deserve to be first choice
at another
team)
I like to think of myself as a fairly rational individual, which is why what has and is going on
at Arsenal confounds me... little wonder people have gone so far as to suggest that Wenger is actually sabotaging the club... one only needs to look
at our starting 11 to stoke the flames of conspiracy... just think of the perceived importance of this game, considering the loss to Stoke, the historically significance of the two
teams involved, the controversy that swirled around our two meetings last season, the proximity to the closing of the window and the general disdain being directed towards the manager once again... how is it even possible that you wouldn't come to Anfield with all guns blazing... not a single shot on target, with the back - up
keeper in no less... where were the new signings?
This should even tell us about the potential of Szczesny to win golden glove with this defence.What a
keeper he is the one i feel sorry for in whole arsenal
team thrown in
at 19 years old behind an ever shaky defense then see where he is now being called shit.it is a real shame i feel so sorry for him because i wonder what if he was 19 years then started
at Chelsea would he still be like this and lack confidence.I love you Szczesny wherever you are.
No Ospina in the
team or on the bench means the
keeper has either got an injury or Wenger does not trust his state of mind after his double howler nearly cost Colombia a World Cup place and there is not a lot of options for Wenger to turn to on the bench, in terms of experience
at least.
What was all the hype about in the previous article about our
keeper?This is the problem with this club we keep over hyping players.Just look
at the
keeper you guys are hyping top
teams are not in for him and top
teams were never in for him when we were chasing for him.The mentality is not good
at all.The mentality is so bad to the extent that it's like when a key player is to leave the club we know we are doomed because the proper replacement won't be brought in.I just don't get it.Keep hyping dem players ok I hope it gets them far.
There have been many Arsenal transfer rumours in the last couple of months that have focused on the
keeper situation
at the club and most of them seem to think that Arsene Wenger is going to sign a top class player to help Arsenal push on and become a
team capable of winning the Premier League title.
To be fair to our Swiss opponents, so were they and they did their best to match our fast pace, but few
teams could have handled the intensity and fluency of Alexis Sanchez, Iwobi, Cazorla, Bellerin and Walcott and they, especially the
keeper, did well to only be two behind
at the break.
No clue about tactics, no clue about substitutions, no clue about
team selection (Cech would have dominated his area and prevented
at least one of the headers + he is most experienced
keeper trophy winning
keeper in the country and would remain calm), no plan B when he realised Carroll is playing.
Cech would be awesome hes 32 which is prime for modern day
keepers Let southampton have the shower smoker Cech provides experience and his trophy cabinet shows how world class he is We need two very good
keepers as you look
at top
teams with 2
keepers (Barcelona - Bravo and Ter Stegen, Madrid - Casillas and Navas) The competition will mean any mistakes and the
keeper will be dropped In my opinion we should go all out for cech, a DM (Schneiderlin or Wanyama)
am tired of wenger.the man has got good skills, but somehow he fails to address basic issues in the
team like buying a striker and a cdm in the last summer.
at one time, arsenal had good squad but had a
keeper who
at times committed mistakes i.e almunia.then after ozil came and arsenal were first in december, all wenger had to do was buy a pacy striker with eye for goal.but wenger did nt so obviously and instead bought an injured kallstrom.agreed ppl fans will keep saying managers shud hav played this guy or that one and so.but in case of wenger, its abt ignoring
team issues t (to prove a point he can win without listening to critics and the fans which he never will), and then playing players out of form, out of position, and buying players that do nt fit ur style like giroud!!
There is one last bit of anxious waiting for Arsenal fans today, but as long as the medical
team at the club do not find that the Czech Republic
keeper has some never before realised problem that stops him getting the all clear, then Petr Cech will soon be confirmed as an Arsenal player, joining his international captain Tomas Rosicky in north London.
...... And imagine Arsenal without????????? Thus one good thing about this
team, unles injuries pile up, this
team is not far off...... Morin loud mouth must be sick somewhere don know exactly where, but swaping a 33 - year old
keeper with the future of Arsenal,,, what is he smokin
at the Bridge???
Apart from Liverpool, the other top PL
teams have got quality
keepers so a good opportunity to get him in the summer and if we can
at least get one quality CB our defence will start to look good again.
what more arsenal.its a total waste with all that ball possession, if you watch most of these premier leauge goals scored by other
teams, they are outside shots, or shots parried by the
keeper etc, when a shot is taken, it creates tension, which could lead to a penalty etc, but
at arsenal, its a different case... thats why we do all the ball possession and pressing, then when
teams like watford get one or two chances..
There could be two very different approaches that Arsenal will face
at Old Trafford tomorrow, with some fans expecting Jose Mourinho to set his Manchester United
team up to stifle the space and frustrate our fluent, and creative attacking football, while some including our veteran
keeper Petr Cech thinking that Mourinho will have to be more adventurous as he is already six points adrift of us and eight points off the top of the Premier League table so a draw would not be all that much use to him.
Lehman was a world class
keeper, he was one of the best and he even managed to bench khan
at the national
team.
Yeah i thought that was a bit of an overstatement there... Ospina hasn't been bad for us, has been a good shot stopper and his distribution improves game to game but he is still sketchy coming for balls (mostly because he is short)... As much as I dislike United have to say De Gea best
keeper in the world
at the moment, one of the few that single handedly wins his
team points on a regular basis
He realistically has never been the second best
keeper at our club, so he'll actually have to improve his game and develop if he wants first -
team action.
The young
keeper has represented France
at various youth levels and is currently the first - choice for their Under - 19
team.
Cillessen was van Gaal's starting
keeper when he was in charge of the Dutch national
team at the 2014 World Cup finals and clearly rates the 26 year old highly.
Cech is good but losing it, not a sure and securing
keeper... Would let half of this
team go for free if not able to sell them, not
at end of contract; they will still leave free... Then build a real
team... Goal
keeper, CD, CM... Sell OX, Ozil & Sanchez, Ramsey, Will chair, welbeck as we still can, Giroud... Not
at end of window when no more players are left, but from top of window... Common sense Wenger totally lost since leaving highbury, saving money as if it is his, said it too... Wenger ruins players.
love your articles galen this just proves the sheer stupidity and arrogance of our manager what are players like ozil and giroud still doing
at arsenal after their first season ozil should probably be sold back to shalke in a soft league and who knows he might play his best football and it might help in his national
team form cazorla is a good player but not world class he can not be classified on the same level against players like silva iniesta and the old arsenal fabregas sanchez is also good but he needs to add more to his game for him to be put on the same level with world beaters like suarez neymar and bale koscienly is also good but he has too many injury troubles coquelin is a class player but he is not world class he is good technically but not a dominant midfielder like schneiderlin and fernandinho as for cech he is there among the best
keepers and he is the only positive in this arsenal
team.Needs to work on his distribution though the back four is solid but has alot of light weights strong and powerful foward might find it easy
After all, the
keeper is one of the most important positions in the
team and Ospina showed
at the World Cup that he was a real top quality player between the sticks, with great shot stopping and distribution and an excellent pair of hands when dealing with crosses.
Ceni has 16 national
team caps to his name, the last of which coming back in 2006 and has scored more goals than any other
keeper in the history of the game and represented Brazil
at both the 2002 and 2006 World Cup finals.
Or is it that games v the big
teams taht all fans yell
at for a striker to win doesn't count for
keepers?
It was not to be though, so Ospina had to see his Arsenal
team mate Alexis celebrating
at the end of the 90 minutes but despite the disappointment the
keeper still managed to show some real class, as reported by Metro, in congratulating Chile and wishing the striker the best of luck for the final against the great Lionel Messi and all.
As a result of Arsenal's stunning capture of Petr Cech in the summer and the scintilating form displayed by the former Chelsea man, the Gunners reserve
keeper David Ospina has hardly seen any first -
team action this season and has admitted his frustration
at not being able to feature regularly for Arsene Wenger's side.
We will have to wait for the Arsenal
team sheet to be handed in
at the Emirates stadium tonight to know for sure, but it looks very likely that Arsene Wenger will hand a start to his number two
keeper David Ospina in the Champions League clash with Olympiacos.
Okay he may not be able to give our seasoned performers any lessons in how to give an interview, but he is certainly showing the
team how to take more speculative long range shots, especially when they are not kicked straight
at the opposing
keeper!
ramsey once played so well that he outperformed rakitic toure vidal modric ozil once played so well that he was better than the combination of iniesta and xavi and was one of the most feared playmakers in the game and was also
at the heart of germany football sanchez played so well he was likened to suarez and is a chilean legend wilshere played so well that he was praised by the entire barcelona
team cech is dubbed the best
keeper in the world by most that even lewandowski was honoured to score against him for once the kosmertz patnership was considered one of the best in english football coquelin is outperforming the best in europe and has gained plaudits from former legends such as henry silva and pires monreal and silva are also statistically the best fullbacks in the league even chamberlain has played so well he is considered the future of england chambers also played so well he was capped by england and nominated for the golden boy award even the giroud ive not mentioned is considered the most lethal strikers a goal after very few touches and fewest minutes on the pitch
Cech spent 11 years
at Stamford Bridge and you could say that Chelsea are a fairly strong and together outfit, especially last season when they only added a couple of players to an already strong squad, but the
keeper has clearly been struck by the strength of the
team spirit in the Arsenal dressing room.
Sunderland's Estonian
keeper Mart Poom almost missed pre-season training during his time
at Derby County after injuring his genitals in a charity match against an Iron Maiden XI of all
teams.
Andy Lonergan has already shown that he's not going to be an answer
at keeper, and while it might be a good idea to get one of Kamil Miazek or Bailey Peacock - Farrell involved later on in the season, if this
team has any illusions of making the playoffs, the U23s aren't going to cut it.
But the numbers likely don't account for everything, either:
keeper Claudio Bravo was a swinging gate last season, while the
team's fullbacks — i.e., 20 percent of the
team's outfield players — were league - average
at best.
OK so my view is this
team is not good enough because they have not learned from all the seasons gones by continue to make the same mistakes every year the manager has not address the weakness of the
team either look
at the goal
keeper issue one should have come in already why wait what there to think about almunia is not good enough why try him again sell but no give him next season to cost us 10 points i hope am wrong but If arsenal win the league with this
team i will eat my hat..............
And yes, they also had a few chances, but against a big
team it's hard for the
keeper not to be tested
at times.
Am reading all over the net and hear as well that people are blaming the players fabianski for not getting his angles right, he had an ok game but a top class
keeper would not be beaten
at his near post, song who out of nowhere has become an attacking midfielder, chamaka for missing two easy headers, diaby for taking too long on the ball, Squillaci, Koscielny i know they new but they are making some mistakes that school boys would not basic mistakes rosciky for blasting a penalty over the bar when a cool head was needed, deneilson your
team leading 1 nill late in a game and you shoot rather than take or pass the ball to the corner i can go on almunia whose technique is horrible and you say this
team has improved.

Personally from where I sit I'd be looking
at a pretty new spine of the
team with a new «

Given the fact that many fans had already grown frustrated
at Szczesny's perceived lack - of - development since breaking into the first -
team at the Emirates
at the beginning of the 2012 - 13 season, the fact that the 25 - year - old exhibited such flagrant disrespect towards the club and manager who had groomed him to become an international quality
keeper by the tender age of 22 was seen as the final straw.
