Gonzalez - THAT free kick

[SeagullSongs]

Before today's game, when I saw the team news on Twitter with Gonzalez starting, I was actually quite happy.
Others around me, however, were already slating him. I thought he actually had a good game today, solid, caught everything, etc.

Before you all scream FIXTURES, the purpose of this post is to show you a video, one that might change your opinion of that free kick in the Watford game.
It's been posted on here before, but I don't think many people have seen it:

Thoughts? I reckon it looks like the free kick dipped, bent and was wind-assisted. No chance of saving it.

Even if it was a horrific mistake, I would only deem it a problem if he was doing it every game or every other game. All keepers make mistakes, all players make mistakes. To make an impression of a keeper based on one action is just silly.

Exactly. It was a huge error of judgement, but it was made on his debut, and he done fine after a shaky first half.

Looked very assured today, although didnt have that much to do, but handling was first rate, as was distribution

He runs the wrong way FFS!

Even I know not to do that.

it looked at the time that he was out of position, when really he had just reacted too soon to the initial flight of the ball - and came across too far, too early. 50/50 poor keeping/fluky brilliant free kick (i bet Sean Murray doesnt do that normally)

I think we have found a new keeper for next season

Yeah would give it a go.

What sort of salary you offering?

He misread the flight of the ball. It happens.

Might need something a bit more solid than that before I quit my day job.

Got a mortgage to pay after all.

I'd like to see how close you would have got to it.

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Let it go.

Wind!? I'm pretty sure there was barely any wind at the AMEX during THAT free-kick. If it was at Withdean then fair enough.

His positioning in that free-kick was very poor, however, he played well today.

Well sadly we will never know

It has already been pointed out that the ball hits CMS in the wall and is deflected.

Not sure why i have used a moo, but i have drunk a bottle of wine and couldn't think of a funny reply

Having seen it not a bit deflated after the result, it had a wicked late curve on it, possible from Craigs head. Not as bad a mistake as first realized.

Plus he looks very very solid apart from an awful first 20 minutes.

Could he be THE keeper we need? Not enough of him has been seen to decide that.

 

[Captain Sensible]

Just seen the interview with him on player. Seems like a very level headed intelligent bloke. I hope he gets another chance, the north stand need to give him another chance after the Watford game.

Good job seeing it on twitter, cos yet another ground where announcing anything to do with our team/subs was non existent.

I think we give visiting teams too much at the amex. Let's not announce their teams/subs/goal scorers/attendance.

Cos lets face they can't/won't announce ours. And I could not give a shit who scored for them.

 

[Weezle]

Quite like the idea if that. Make them irrelevance. Dot care who we're playing, how many came, who came off or who came on. Think it would make the Amex Far more intimidating.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Think itll come down to wages. If he deosnt want to much I think I would keep Gonzo in favour of casper and Brez BUT doesnt alter the fact we need a better first team keeper.
