Jerseybean Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Well played Max O’Leary, he made two world-class saves. We worked our socks-off all over the pitch to pick up a great three points, against a very good Sunderland team. Character, commitment, bravery and hard work, well played! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worry that they won so many headers in our box. Defending set pieces has been a strength which seems to be slipping somewhat.

BCFCGav Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Outstanding performance. People will remember the saves but did well from many crosses too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Excellent from him. Kept us in the game with some outstanding saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledAjax Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 18 shots, half of which were on target...but not one of Sunderland's shots were inside the 6 yard box and all those shots came to a paltry xG total of only 0.74 (early numbers). So he was busy, very busy even, but none of those shots were actually particularly dangerous. Still did his job well though. A good day at the office. 7 minutes ago, BCFCGav said: Outstanding performance. People will remember the saves but did well from many crosses too. This is a good point as well.

joe jordans teeth Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Well done today no doubt but let’s not think 1 game makes him championship level,the same people saying that keep quiet all the other games when he is letting in shockers and constantly kicking it in the stands but today fair play 2 1 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 First mistake was in the 93rd minute when his kick out was rubbish, to be fair after the forearm smash 30 seconds earlier he was probably concussed. Outstanding & so were all the back four in front of him. Big win. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take nothing away from the guy today, he was on a one-man mission and was bloody brilliant, huge from a local lad.

Mr Popodopolous Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Max's distribution was still a bit hit and miss but overall he was very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Max did well today and deserves the plaudits that come his way. We know he is inclined to the odd midstaje and his distribution could be better but that is why he's playing in the Championship and not the PL. City don't get overrun every week and he rarely has a disaster of a game. He may not be the best but he is of Championship standard. I think some have a vastly inflated opinion of what the performance level of a Championship goalkeeper is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He managed the box well today. You're using xG wrong. You can't use it to say the shots weren't dangerous, that's not how it works. You can say the chances weren't good, but it tells you nothing about the individual shots on the day. What was TGHs xG the other day? Was it a dangerous shot? 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post-shot-xG will be high on some of them, because they were right in the corner. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
