Anyone watch the Germany game yesterday? How good are Sweden, really? I only ask because they seem likely to fuck up Ireland's meagre chances.

Joe Hart.

England have been dreadful.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

hart is overrated he is nothing but the best of the worst bunch of english goalkeepers available, another David James, a decent shot stopper but nothing special

 

[radekas]

Poland outplaying England. Well now that's new.

 

[swag]

Poland outplaying England. Well now that's new.

John Terry heard something about Poles and naturally headed to the strip club?

Joe Hart.

England have been dreadful.

The most overrated keeper in circulation at the moment.

So happy Pirlo made him look like a fucking clown at the Euros.

 

[Red]

Hart is a very good 'keeper, but the English are being silly about him.

His decision making isn't anywhere near good enough for him to stand comparison to top 'keepers.

 

[Salvo]

He is a quality shot stopper.

I'd say his positioning neither, they rave about him because he makes outstanding saves due to his great diving/reflexes, that tends to mask the flaws of his game.

With that said, he's very young, positional sense and decision making are things that can certainly be improved with time.

 

[Red]

He is a quality shot stopper.

He's great on difficult ones.

What he's not so good at is the slightly easier ones that, while too tough to catch, he should be pushing away into safe areas.

Too often he palms the ball back into dangerous areas.

I wouldn't disagree with that.

Rather like Casillas was.

It's only in the last couple of years that Casillas has really cut down on the errors caused by poor decision making and positioning.

 

[JuveJay]

Agree.

And England were awful yesterday.

 

[Nicholas]

Casillas has always been overrated. Like Cech has.

 

[Dadi-SK]

Casillas has always been overrated. Like Cech has.

but never better than Buffon.

 

[Nicholas]

The people who claimed he was better than Buffon, deserved blowing up.

 

[Gabriel]

To be fair, Cech was a bloody great keeper before his injury.

 

[Red]

Yup.

 

[Cheesio]

Casillas is a great keeper too.

 

[Red]

He's become a great keeper in the last couple of years.

 

[Fake Melo]

Casillas is a great goalkeeper, but he is nowhere near Gigi.

 

[Red]

No keeper comes close to Buffon's decision making, positioning and reading of the game.

Casillas is probably the best of the rest for overall ability, followed by Neuer.
