Top talent and this place needs to get behind him. Good shot and blinded by a defender that's what it was. This guy is the least of our problems.
 
How do you know what fans want if you say something like that. Thats load of BS. People just want a player of the level of Manchester United be it a young punt from a smaller league or a solid more experienced option. Would be a dream obviously spent as little as 17m and solve our problem right away.

Lammens not making stupid mistakes is a very low bar though. He should be able to show other traits of GK, and reflexes is simply one of the most important ones. We are not a championship side to have a keeper who is generally steady but doesnt save anything extra.

Time will tell if he can adapt, but to me he looks like a Dorgu version of a GK. Young punt, but perhaps never good enough..
You just desperately want to be right.
 
How many have we signed from the PL that ended up a success?
A lot more than from outside the EPL, both Cunha and Mbeumo look ready to go.

We need to focus 85-90% signings on PL proven over next 3/4 transfer windows.

I don’t think he’s a top talent. I think he’s a middle of the road, solid keeper.

That’s so many level above what we have had with Onana and Bayindir.

I’m happy we have him, and he’s the sort of obvious and value signing we should make to improve us.
 
Hard disagree. That’s the hand you would coach a kid to use in that situation and was the correct decision. There’s certainly no way his choice of hand was the reason he didn’t make a save. The reason was poor footwork (and a lack of spring?). Anyway. I’ll agree to disagree.

Not in that situation you wouldn't. Top hand if you're going full stretch high above your head, where your arm can go straight up and not across your body.

That was close enough to him that a left handed save was a better option, even if he got his feet right, going across his body with his right hand like that was all kinds of wrong.

You don't think he is a top talent? Why do you come to that conclusion, just curious?
 
It's funny that people are blaming him for the goal. Did you guys forget the goals that clown was conceding every week last season, and even the start of this season?

When someone says ‘top talent’, to me, that’s someone who has the potential to be one of the very best. I don’t see that.

But he can be a good, solid keeper - just I don’t think one of the best in the world.
 


So your idea of showing that a goalkeeper isnt in good form is a bunch of videos of him conceding 1 goal? He's conceded 12 in 14 games total this season but since I was talking about his recent form, he's conceded 2 goals in his last 4 games and Villa have joint 4th best defensive record in the league with Chelsea

Lammens has conceeded 7 goals in his last 4 matches for United

Lammens is getting pelters for conceding a couple of goals that were fairly weak and he should really have done better on.

Martinez has several of those himself, and a couple of absolute full-on howlers. But yeah, keep going on about how down is actually up when you think about it, like you usually do when proven wrong.

So you cant count, thats your argument? Got it.

That is not correct, with few exceptions. Yoro should've done much better, and yes, Onana was worse than him.

But that doesn't change the fact that he should've done better with that shot, as most of the posters here are saying.

Funny when I see him I see all the traits that you would want in a top keeper but not fully developed.
 
I’m asking the poster, @arthurka to clarify. I’ve said I think he will be a good solid goalkeeper, just not of one the best in the world.
Just to chip in here with my own view - I do somewhat agree with you.

He will never ever be that flashy young goalkeeper with cat reflexes. BUT, I do think that as he gets older, beyond 28 and even going into mid thirties, he will age like fine wine in all of his goalkeeping attributes and become extremely dependable and very good compared to goalkeepers who will have lose their reflexes by that point.
 
With respect, he’s a 23 year old goalkeeper, who knows what his ceiling is after 6 games. All we know so far is he’s been very solid.
The crucial word there. None of us know how good he could become.

The other crucial word is the antonym; floor. Already his floor is way higher than the Paul and Barry Chuckle Show that we’ve endured the last two seasons (and can add de Gea’s last season to that list too).

One day he MIGHT be brilliant, but today he is not sh*t. That’s a massive improvement.
 
I am thankful we have him and have been pleasantly surprised by his performances, but that was a Onana-level weak-wristed attempt at a save. An awful save attempt.

Hopefully he can learn from it somehow and make up for it on Sunday, because my god we need a miracle.
 
Once again proving he will not be a top keeper since his lack of athleticism I called long time ago. There is zero evidence of him showing top reflexes in the 20minute long videos over the internet and didnt show anything spectucular so far either. He's a steady eddie at best, which might not make as many mistakes as the two clowns we had before but if we want a keeper to take us forward we need much better.

Like some posters said, swap the keepers and the result is different. You really wonder how Pickford made some of those saves, but easy answer he's much better spring and reflexes and anticipation of shots. Lammens, looks to pick good spots, but the 15-20% extra he needs to do to save some of the top tier/harder shots, he will fail. Welbecks goal was fairly poor, but this was just a standart save to make.

Will also go that far to say, that perhaps Bayindir could save that, as he's got better reflexes and is more athletic. Hopefully Vitek is the real deal. or we have plan rather than waiting for Lammens to go to another gear. But yeah luckily we have half season to evaluate at least.
Did his best Onana impression for Newcastle's second goal today. Lammens would absolutely be taken to the cleaners here for that.

Finally, you dont have to wait behind the keyboard anymore and can send this Pickford message after his shocker, you were hoping for.

I was simply stating what is visible from the very game and that's pretty obvious reaction times of both keepers. That doesnt mean Pickford doesnt have a mistake in him, I dont rate him at all.

Lammens did well today, even though, didnt have much to do.

The shot straight at him today that he knocked to the floor then landed on would have been a Palace goal if either Onana or Bayindir are in goal as they knock it straight back in front of them.
 
Very decent. There was one cross he kind of flapped out, but I think he had to come and get something on it, and then Yoro (I think) made a great block.

He deserves more clean sheets than he has. Hopefully he can get a couple vs. West Ham and Wolves.

If he doesn't get a hand to that cross it was pretty much a goal from a free header
 
Typical composed performance, distribution was good and communicated well with the back line. Wonder how Onana is going to enjoy being his understudy next season?

Was hoping we’d sign a world beater for number 1 and then we’d have a very good number 2 in Lammens
 
Record is pretty good since he started playing. It's a combination of him being fairly decent and the previous keepers being horrendous

Very likely. And it was a difficult high ball to reach. He just tipped it, but it was enough to avoid header, then Yoro helped
 
Just no dramas with him, which is all you can ask. If Onana had been in goal these past 13 games, he'd no doubt have several new entries to his howlers compilations

He doesn't seem to palm the ball into dangerous areas every other shot, which is great considered what we were used to.

I don't see the point in having a player that age as a number 2 unless the number 1 is close to the end of his career or something. He needs games.
 
Very happy with him. Plays like he is much older, which is good. No drama keeper. Will have a good career, let’s see if he can make the next step up.
 
The thing is we are not talking about the goalkeeper is a good sign.

I shudder at the thought of some of the crosses and shots Lammens had dealt with calmly if either Of the chuckle brothers were in Goal!
