Pepe Reina

[El Rojo]

Best keeper and sweeper in the Premiership.

The difference and the confidence when he is in the net compared to Dudek is massive.

 

His punching and footwork were superb today.

[WeAreTheBest]

Was class today, difference between him and Dudek is incredible. So so confident.

[bigredruss]

you just don't realise until he's missing what a differanc ehe makes. all the pundits were slating us and making liverpool supporters look sily over this last week. a settled back 4 and pepe in goal = clean sheet again

[Strontium]

After Dudek's last two performances, just about anything else would seem world-class in comparison. However, Pepe has improved a lot in the second half of the season, and he was commanding today.

[Carradona]

I'm fond of the way he dinks the ball out to the full backs. atk wont like this thread.

[The Clive Thomas Fan Club]

I wouldn't swap him for any other keeper in the world. Even without his shot stopping, which is exceptional, he contributes so much to the defence by being so alert and sweeping behind them. He will make the odd gaff, but all keepers do.

[Dan Vito Corleone]

I'm unsure about the formation we used today but the idea of a back 3 is fairly reassuring with Reina in net because he's quick off his line and if someone does get in behind I'm confident enough he'll be alert enough to clear the danger.

[Spy Bee]

He's a clown :whistle:

[Barrington Womble]

he'll be very difficult to replace should he choose to fuck off to spain in the summer.

[spider-neil]

I think villa is one of the best strikers in europe but I'm not so sure a swap with pepe would represent good business.

[King Emlyn]

I honestly wouldn't swap Reina for any other keeper in the prem, he's top top top quality as far as i'm concerned, he won't be here next season though i'm certain of that, very good sources tell me that his missus hates it here. Be interesting to see what his transfer fee would be though, Europes top sides must be aware that this fellas the real deal, very young as well. He must have a few years left on his contract so he must be worth a fortune to us.

[coop]

Tell him to fuck her off then. Hes a footballer so therefore he can have his pick of women.

[Kopite]

As Strontium Dogs alluded to, it's nice to have a keeper who actually will try and make a save.

 

No one will convince me that had he played against Arsenal that we'd have won at least one of those games.

[Gods back]

Go for it mate!!!

 

I hope he costs you 50 smackers mind!!

The best keeper in the Premiership may well be on view at anfield next week, but if he is he'll be wearing a Chelsea shirt.

 

Strange that this thread should appear today following a game when Reina was a spectator.

I don't think we'd sell Pepe to Chelsea Dave, surely?

[Mascherano]

Dudek may have played like a twat in the Arsenal games but if he showed the form of his first full season I would have him over Reina.

 

He was absolutely wonderful IMO.

 

With Geds style of play, Jerzy made save after save, hoof, return possession to them followed by another wonderful save.

I have to disagree. Jerzy has never been as good a pepe. End of

Not a fan then?

[MLB]

He's been in great form recently, and if he keeps progressing he can become top class, but he still has a fair few flaws to iron out of his game. He's probably one of the top two or three keepers out there under the age of 25, though.

watching the highlights and ive seen him come out a few times, win the ball, get it away etc. he looks commanding to me. commentators also mentioned he has the most clean sheets in the Premiership. Reina is class

[Stormbringer]

The lad Foster looked a good keeper today. Saved all he could save and we had 11-12 shots on target. Great save from Bellamy for Crouch's first.

[RSM]

After Cech, Reina is certainly the best of the rest. Plus he's fucking young and will improve over time.
