Fuckin braindead anorl. Not often ya see a keeper prevent a ball going over the bar to drop it on the goal line for a tap in.
Fuckin terrible game management over all.
Fuck knows what they have done to Meslier he was at one time decent, seems shot now, needs taking out for a while. Darlow not much better mind.
Meslier hasn’t looked decent for last 4 years
I think only reason we've stuck with him is because at one point he was a £20m+ asset and the board are hoping he will be again. It's like they're in denial. Farke was just parroting their crap when he said "he's best keeper in the league".
Time to cut their losses. He's a fuckin dud who peaked in his teens. Keeper equivalent of Freddy Adu.

Last game he started he was awful. Chuck whatever money Stoke want for their keeper

Meslier at fault for all 3 goals for me. First one he was in no man’s land, making it easy or easier for their lad to score. If he was in box then he’d have had to control it and maybe forced wide from Wober. The second we all know. The 3rd he was pulled out of position on the initial corner. Either get it or get set for whats coming next. He did neither.
Tbh, i dread going up because we’ll be like Southampton.

Certainly a distinct possibility. But if we recruit well we'll have a chance. ER is different gravy to St Mary's. Might just make the difference.
We'd defo need a new keeper

Surely it’s now got to the stage where we have to do something about him. To continue with him in between the sticks is pure folly. And it can’t purely be on Farke. We have an entire department for analysis and recruitment.

Aye, need to do something. He's the only keeper in the top 6 underperforming in expected saves, and that doesn't even account for blunders like yesterday or the general chaos of not being able to command his area. That's a serious handicap vs our promotion rivals. Sheff and Burnley have 2 of the best keepers in the league who actually keep them in games.
Seen all sorts of numbers being floated around of how many points he's cost us but I think it's difficult to quantify. However, he has cost us 4 points minimum (yesterday, Sunderland). That could easily be the difference come the end of the season.
