I may be all those things, but at least I don't rely on a rag top paper to promote the virtues of a rag player.

Shame on you. You've gone soft.

See that Christmas Spirit is flowing.

See what you did there Bruce!

New contract for Joe ; I sincerely hope it's performance-based.

It should be percentage-based on his kicking accuracy.

Very glad he's signing a new deal.

He's a champion & has been part of the spine of our team, for all the bits we moan about. It doesn't mean he can let his standards drop or his position is 100% safe irrespective, & that we can't look to improve if we feel he isn't doing what's required. Just ties things up nice & tight & shows him we have confidence in him. Great news imo.

Get Milner sorted now.

Bit short for a keeper ?

i hope the shit about him becoming the highest paid goalkeeper in the world that is being touted by the papers is farfetched

Well done Joe for saving us yet another two points today.

Saw his strong points (the save) and weak points today (at least twice in the last period he gave the ball back to Everton allowing them to maintain pressure). Some much improved catching too.

For all his faults, and which goalie doesn't have them?, he had a really good game. His first priority is a clean sheet which was accomplished with a great save. No mean feat when he had had bugger all else to do up to that point. His concentration levels are good and his catching was excellent today. Credit where it's due, well played Joe

Who fucking cares?

Cheers

His distribution is embarrassing. He can't catch a ball. His saves-to-shot ratio is abysmal. However, he's English, let's give him 7 million a year. An absolute fucking disgrace.

To be fair, that was a blinding Save last night, although the ratio which one might look at is 'saves / kicks straight into touch' which I think was at least only 50% last night

Just absolutely piss poor distribution again from Joe, and it makes you wonder what the other players think......they bust their balls running round for 90 minutes trying to win and keep posession, and this clown keeps just losing us posession nearly every time he gets the ball and chooses to kick. It would fuck me right off as a player

Great game imo.

Have you got stats to back this up? Find it very difficult to find keeper stats.

Stop giving out about the kick out king...lol great save though, top class save, it gained us two points even if his kick outs nearly cost us two.

How did kickouts nearly cost us two? His kicking his shit but I don't recall him kicking it to them in a dangerous area that could've led to us conceding.
