AppyDAZE Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Dan Bentley does his usual one v one save at a crucial time, and now we barely notice it. It is almost to be expected. What a signing this giant has been. Cheers, Dan cheers mate you really are fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelksRed Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Agreed - I feel more confident about these type of situations where I just used to choose my eyes and wait for the opposing teams fans to explode. Kept us not only in this game but multiple games this season. Someone (not me) should (hypothetically) calculate how many points all of these interjections are worth in terms of points....

Isawjonshaw Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 He really is as good as anyone I’ve seen over the years between the sticks for City. Obviously John Shaw was the first I witnessed. Up the City! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Am i being harsh thinking he should be doing better for the goal? Apart from that he was excellent like he always is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum defended Neeskens awfully on their goal. Bentley was livid to concede, kicking the back stanchion. Good attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real_bristol Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 He was absolutely livid when we conceded as well, he kicked the stanchion behind the goal. I think because of where his first parry ended up. Or maybe with the defence I’m not sure. But I don’t care, it’s always great to see that passion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I wouldn’t say he was ‘ forgotten ‘ . He is a huge part of why we are where we are. As others have pointed out he has kept us in games so often this season with saves at crucial times. It is almost expected now . He is my player of the season so far .

I think the most unsung player this season so far , if not necessarily the best is Nathan Baker as he has been really good, and is someone who rarely gets everyone on his side.

CotswoldRed Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I don't see a better keeper anywhere in the world right now. OK, I don't watch every televised game, but I've seen nobody better in 100 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted December 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Yeah, looking again he does push that save back into play a bit but it was a quick, decent save from a decent shot. Deserved better reactions from the defense if we're being critical, and probably Callum to do better to stop the shot to start with. For all their possession it was one of those games where DB had less to do than usual away from home. No way did we not deserve to win that game , penalty or no penalty.

We`ve had some right bangers on loan down the years. Ian Leigh anyone? Let one through his legs in the first couple of minutes of his debut in front of the EE.

Port Said Red Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I always thought the best goalkeeper we ever had in one on one situations was Jan Moller, but I am starting to revise that opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the good work Danny boy I dont think Frank was superb, he did well but certainly no where near superb. The thing with Frank was that you could never feel 100% confident in him as he always had a mistake in him. He was quite erratic at times. He would make some world class saves but would be very prone to conceding pathetic goals that my gran could save. He wasnt consistent enough, his form would dip up and down like a rollercoaster. He was quite prone to injuries also. He has been one of the weakest links in the team for the past few years. Nice guy but I am glad hes gone.

Garland-sweden Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Think Frankie was a very good keeper and was a big part that we not were relegated. Now we have Bentley and he is even better than Frankie. I was not sure about him when he came but time has shown he is brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
