YGBjammy Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Bentley is just about one of the best keepers you can ask for in this division. If he cut out say 50% of the mistakes then there's no way he'd be playing in the Championship; he'd be in the prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw both sides of Bentley tonight, first pushing a routine long ranger back down the middle of the goal where a Luton player somehow had a swing and a miss at it, then two minutes later making a fantastic reaction save, followed by the error for the goal. Some will say he saves us more points than he costs us but I don’t believe that’s true. Give me a Maennpa type steady keeper every day of the week. Well this aged well. I watched both games live and without Bents we would have lost both games BADLY. If you are going to overreact everytime a goalkeeper makes a mistake in the CHAMPIONSHIP (not the top league) then may I suggest you stop watching football. If bents didnt make mistakes he would be a Prem keeper, cos his shot stopping is some of the best I have seen in over 40 years of watching City.

Should've qualified my previous statement, Bents keeps us in more games than he costs us, as seen by his performance today vs QPR, but equally kept us in the game against Luton until his last minute blunder. Without him, there are games we could and should have been buried. Too many on here too quick to jump on Bents' back, as a goalkeeper is more often than not punished when he makes a mistake. But he'll win us way more points than he costs us. Quality Championship keeper, lucky to have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that there were several people agreeing with the thread shows several people are not fully convinced. And you can make the same comment about consistency that others have but he doesn’t have consistency, and that’s the point. It wasn’t an overreaction to a mistake, it was a post in response to another mistake that cost us points. I also watched both games and already said that yesterday DB kept us in the game, I’m happy enough to admit when he has a great game as well as when he doesn’t. And get off your high horse telling people to stop watching football. Football is about opinions. Get back in your box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
