[Albion] Robert Sanchez to Chelsea for £25m plus add-ons

[One Teddy Maybank]

Boehly overnight is trying to cheat his way to a squad the level of Citeh and Real. 22 great players.

Imho Sanchez was a significant step up on Ryan, but there are flaws to his game and not just passing, he’s a PL goalie but a million miles away from Ederson, Alisson or Coutois.

I’m surprised the Chavs bought him, stunned they’re starting him in PL games, and highly delighted.

But as per my post, he is a lot younger than those mentioned, and is still learning.

The fact he is in the Spain squad at such a young age was impressive in itself. He clearly missed Roberts when he left.

I don’t disagree re Chelsea, but think he’s probably the best they have currently, and will only continue to improve.

2 minutes 30 seconds.

So that’s at least three howlers. He played 23 league games last season so even if you ignore the other goals others have stated that’s a major error roughly every 7/8 games.

Or 3 in 90

It’s probably about 6 or 7 from memory, definitely a similar missed punch at West Ham as well.

A little unlucky at Utd as initially fouled and then nobody blocked the donkey. Presumably, you would also acknowledge the two excellent saves that ensured we won?

But yes, definitely a missed punch.

I haven’t seen the game, did Big Bob make some errors today?

Not really, I missed the first goal. One good save with his foot.

Down to the crux of this, (prior to his sulk), I don’t see him as ever being at that top table. Costly unforced errors, shit at pens, poor with his feet when under pressure, rash take outs of strikers.

Not you, there’s always been a funny nsc thing that some won’t let anyone criticise a keeper. Many of us spotted flaws in Ryan’s game as time went on, to some here that was sacrilege and so, so inaccurate. Months later he was dumped.

Entitled impatient fanbase due to Russian roubles solving all their problems for 20 odd years hmmm

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

I felt quite sorry for Colwill and Caicedo today but I was delighted to watch the goals flying past Sanchez

Yes.

Actually don’t know why I’m defending him, bloody traitor, can’t stand Chelsea.

Was also pleased to see Colwill and Caciedo struggle.

Go to 1 minute 55 seconds.

At 0:41. Every analysts going said a straight red for violent conduct.

 

[maresfield seagull]

He’s not an ‘exceptional goalie’ that’s just blatant over exaggeration.

Off the top of my head I can think of three huge errors last season that led to goals (Man United, Liverpool, Palace, all away).

Given he was second choice for the back end of the season that’s a large number of goals from direct errors and exceptional goalkeepers do not make anywhere near that many.

He was good, had potential and that’s about it.

David de Gea anyone ?

Have to say I never rated Ryan, but I will stick up for Sanchez I think he is a good goalie.

Still want him to fail though.

Totally sums it up - he is a good, developing keeper but some dumb agent has totally lied to him about his development curve. That’s why he threw a wobbly when RDZ tried to return him to planet earth. Bizarre decision by Poch (Roberts?) to give him this nightmare phase when Poch is trying to kick this ramshackle squad of overpaid misfits into shape (which sadly he probs will do), Kepa should be shouldering the burden here

 

[Machiavelli]

Very harsh. He’s a young player, who is going to make mistakes.

“Way too many” is an exaggeration, and I’d be interested to hear of them, Palace apart.

His footwork isn’t as good as Steele, RdZ preferred Steele good enough for me.

Agreed. I've asked the same question. Yet to get an answer.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Not an error though. Had to come for it, again an experience thing.

 

[American Seagle]

So on that basis perhaps harsh Sanchez was dropped given the amount of ‘errors’ by outfield players?

I’m not sorry Steele is in goal, but I’m not having Sanchez made lots of errors, because it is inaccurate. He remains an exceptional goalie, whose passing was not good enough for how we play, it certainly wasn’t goalkeeping reasons.

We are agreeing. You just don't seem to class bad passes and choices and pace of passing as errors by Sanchez.
For what it is worth I do think, had he had a better attitude and stayed and listened to coaching, he would have been able to improve and remove the passing errors. He has a potential ceiling higher than Steele. Maybe the easy option is moving to a club where it suits his natural style though?

 

[Weststander]

His assault would’ve been an early red card and three match ban, but for a huge ref/VAR gaff. To me rashness is part of his makeup.

Got to say, I’m chuffed with Steele and Verbruggen.

No I don’t Every player makes bad passes/decisions every game.Steele did a couple yesterday, and I wouldn’t consider those errors either.

Yes - happy with where we are.

But, I won’t agree that Sanchez made “way too many errors”.

The thing is I don't consider all errors as that bad. There is a scale. Sanchez is not a bad goaltender for the errors he made. Not all errors are equal. Every player makes errors (bad passes etc), that is why we strive for the impossible perfection.
