Bad faith. He saved us numerous times today. His mistake is the kind that only happens once. 

He did exactly the same thing in the first half and it went wide

I don't like what I've seen from him so far.

The thing in the first half happens to every keeper when they try to clear it away sometimes. On the goal, he literally passed it straight to a player. That's easily avoidable. 

[El Rojo]

He’s a good 1980s goalkeeper, makes some decent saves. He’s absolutely awful with his feet though, which poses us big problems given how we play the game. 

[Strontium]

Alisson made a howler of equal magnitude in his fourth league match. It happens. I don't think he's a Karius who's going to be throwing them in every game.

Well, both instances are easily avoidable if you know what you are doing.

 

As I have said in the match thread - I don't remember a top flight keeper doing it twice in the same game

He's been here for a week and a half and has had to play in some real high pressure moments already. Unfair to judge. There's been some good and bad but we've come out the other side of it with 6 points and a trophy.

I don't care how long he's been here for, he's a professional athlete and should be ready to perform to an acceptable standard when needed.

Was winning a penalty shootout and making those top saves today not an acceptable standard taking into consideration the context or did you think we were signing Lev Yashin on a free?

Don't ask compound questions.

[The Guest]

It was Karius-esque.  There’s no getting away from it.   He should have learnt his lesson from the first half when he got caught.  He had actually had a really good game.  If Ings put me the second chance in I think that would have been the end of him.  I don’t think the fans will turn on him Mignolet style because it hasn’t cost us points.

 

For me he’s a similar level to Mignolet.  I’d probably say Mignolet is the better keeper but as somebody mentioned I think with the baggage Mig comes with and a lot of the fans irrational hatred of him I think the switch is probably the best thing.

 

Adrian really needs to cut that shit out immediately though.  Just fucking go long.  2 nil up be intelligent and don’t gift goals away.

[SlugTrail]

So we are all agreed then its atchebergs fault as he doesn't know how to coach a goalkeeper.

[ZonkoVille77]

Keepers shouldn't be doing shit like that, at any level of the game. It was a ridiculous fuck up and he should get a slap for it. I think he's the type that switches off when he's not busy and that's not a good trait to have playing for us.

 

Mistake aside I thought he did OK. 

[VladimirIlyich]

He's still better than Mignolet for me.

[Josef Svejk]

He looks pretty decent (as a back-up) to me. Just over-confident on the ball today...

[rubble-rouser]

I think he’s superb. A modern day Brucey. He made 3 saves i’m Not sure Mig would have made and he  didn’t Seem to panic after the horrible error. I like the fact that he's an Aggressive cunt too xx

[Oh Buoy]

But can he do that blunder in a CL final? 

[Em City]

TK-421 has decided he's not getting enough attention so he's launched into another campaign.

 

Ah bless, hope you get what you need TK you sad bastard.

[John102]

I think Mignolet is a better keeper and was probably one of the best number 2's in the league. Shame he went.

 

Dont think Adrian has been great for either of the goals we have conceded, but has made some decent enough stops too. Doesnt seem great with ball at his feet too, which i thought was supposed to be a strength of his? Maybe im wrong on that.  Doesnt appear to be if the opposition is targetting him.

I don't even thing the way they chased him down could even be considered "targeting" him. Not trying to be a smart arse but he made an absolute heap of shite out of a bread and butter pass. Twice. Hope Alison is back ASAP. Adrian will absolutely definitely cost us points at some stage.

He probably thought Mignolet used to get too much grief, so he's trying to prove that point by hammering the "Adrian is terrible" angle because people were happy with the change. TK has to work on not being so transparent.

 

He's not even been at the club for 2 weeks and he probably wasn't fully fit today. It's too early to draw conclusions.

He's a shot stopper not a footballer.  The defence need to make allowances when passing the ball back to him. 

Few adjustments , play to his strengths to minimise the risks

Too early to draw conclusions? TK probably spunked himself to death upon seeing that error.

 

He ain't going to let time or context get in the way of an irrational agenda.

[Lee909]

Bad, stupid mistake

Still made two great saves at 0-0(seconf might have been at 1-0)
