I knew that's what you meant really

I'm not saying he would've got there if he'd have dived, but it didn't end up in the top right hand corner..it was actually about halfway. I question his positioning, his ability and willingness to save it even if people think I'm wrong. Bottom line is, he's shit and was the only weak link last night again.

And? Last night we didn't keep a clean sheet. Despite the positives outweighing the negatives by ten fold, is it not permitted to discuss any negatives too? 2 goals were conceded, both of which were avoidable so less of the 'FFS'. If you don't agree, just say you don't agree....

Just watched the highlights, Burge could have done better for the 1st. That said he's made plenty of good saves the last few games. People have it out for Burge no matter what he does.

It probably would have went in but he should have at least made an effort.

Having seen it again, I still don't think he'd have got there and he looks like Ricketts was blocking his view so not sure if he saw it until late.

Possibly, looks to me as if he thought it was going wide. Like a say, it probably would have went in but if he had made an effort he would have had a better chance to save it than doing nothing at all.

Yes but we scored 3, I bet they think they could have been avoidable.

That game yesterday was one of the best games I've seen in recent memory. Normally I have no idea when (and if) a goal is going to come from. When we were pegged back both times I just knew it wasn't over we had the ability to go on and win the game. If we had come away with a point it would have been a shame as we were absolutely fantastic, every single one of them. I wouldn't have been as disappointed as some games when we've scraped a ugly 1-0 win.

The way they played was so uplifting. When they received the ball, actually turning and running at the defence. I have no problem with the two goals we conceded, both could have been avoided but they were very clinical other teams wont be so. Its not as if they were clear goal scoring opportunities either. Their first especially was an cracking effort.

ok the highlights confirm it wasnt that far from him and he should have dived.

lot of humble pie should be served but i will be mature about it.

To me it looked like he was scrambling but was caught on his heels as it came from behind the defender. Not sure what else he could've done?

lol dont argue the facts rich.

he might not even have needed to dive, outstretched arm could have made the difference.

looked a harder shot to save at the time granted but highlights show it was saveable. hopefully burge and some posters learn from this.

Are we talking about the first goal? The one where Burge stumbled across the box?

No chance in hell was burge getting to their first goal, if it's anybody's fault it's Willis, for giving him too much space. Some people want burge to fail, that was almost inch perfect that shot.

it was quite close to him,a dive should have been made.

no one is saying it wouldt have gone in. what they are saying is it clearly wasnt a 100% goal that didnt require a saving attempt.

want burge to fail lmao. idiotic

Willis had two to deal with,Obrien or Vicelot were a bit slow getting across help out.
Way too easy to getTin for the shot.

He should have done better for the second goal.
