Second mistake doesn't even worry me that much, it could happen to anyone when they're not careful.
But the first one... Not only did he spill a weak shot going right at him, he let they guy that shot the ball get to the second one before him even though he was closer. Dropping simple balls is the mark of a GK who does not have his confidence anymore and I can't remember the last one who made the type of mistakes he did over the last 10 months coming back into form.
I would honestly just give a chance to Israel. I know it's not going to happen, but he can't possibly be worse than this and the reward could be we get a young homegrown gem for the next two decades. He impressed me so much in that A vs B team game.

Do we even have a thread for him?
I wonder if the fact that Juve was trying to replace him has had an effect on his motivation. Look at his body language recently. Complete indifference.
I also don’t believe for a second that Allegri told management not to get Donnarumma and he was happy with Tek. I think they realized they couldn’t get him because no one would take Tek.
Btw there’s a nice middle ground between Tek and Donnarumma. Even Agresti is suggesting that Perin get a shot, as yesterday’s performance wasn’t a one off, but rather a continuation of last season. I don’t think Max will make the switch just yet, but it’s gotta be closer than ever. And once that switch is made, they have to commit to Perin for the foreseeable future.

Mistakes like these is what made De Gea turn from top 5 GK to average. szcesney, needs confidence but only way is to play, and that is a risk. Sadly for him he doesn't have Buffon around to give him a GK mental advice. No easy solution here sadly.
Allegri won't dump so let's all pray szcesney recovers.

It's like watching a different GK compared to this 2021 version of Sczszesny... he had some shaky moments even back then but far long apart from eachother and mostly still never ended up actually costing us so overall he was as solid as you could get, now fast forward to present today and i can hardly imagine him making even a couple of those saves that we can see in the first 1,2mins of that video... really got to get his shit together or if it keeps going downhill from here just let Perin or the U23 guy start for a while, which also wouldn't inspire much confidence either but atm is hard to believe that any of them could do worst than what we've seen yesterday.

It’s a dork loser mentality lmao. If it was just one or two bad games, or if he was a young player, of course you should still support him. But its none of that. He’s getting paid too much money and has too much experience to just blindly support him. His performances aren’t acceptable, and if the club won’t hold him accountable, then at least the fans should.
