Taylor27 0 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 During the match, count the number of times Given has control of the football, and count the number of times four players touch the ball after he has delivered it. You could be suprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Why do 4 players have to touch the ball after Given? Watch Parker today - bet our players don't touch the ball 213 times after he does. He's shite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 391 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 He's kept us in the game as well! 96771[/snapback] Not really. Their keeper has been just as important for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan 0 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 (edited) Still made some vital saves though, that many other keepers would have struggled with. Poor choice of words from me though, I'll admit. Edited February 18, 2006 by DanTheMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did actually count like he said and after Given's first throw to a defender, 4 touches resulting in a chance at goal. But then again he's an idiot and doesn't know what he's talking about...

Howaythelads 0 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Distribution is a very important part of the game for a keeper. Unless he's lumping it down the pitch 50/50, he needs to deliver the ball to someone without playing them into trouble. He needs to work at it ( I'd be amazed if he isn't, he doesn't seem to be stupid ), it's one of his few weaknesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 23083 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Was I imagining it or did Given not pass it straight to one of their players in the first half? Just suprised Taylor27 didn't jump on that like. Fwiw I think Given is a very good keeper, especially at stopping shots, but perhaps not quite as world class as some make out, which is why he hasn't gone to a bigger club imo. He is prone to errors in his distribution and in his positional judgement (iirc this was illustrated twice against Pompey). Also, he doesn't seem to be able to command the back 4 well - and this may be a real problem. Still, he has saved our bacon countless times recently and we will not easily get a superior replacement.
