Apart from 2 shots they were all straight at him. David Marshall performance for Cardiff was way better than that and had superb saves

He was a little twat, he made some good saves but wasted at least 10 minutes and broke up the game.

I don’t pay my money to watch a keeper stretch and not kick the f***ing ball.

I don’t care if we win lose or draw but I want to watch football, not a goalie stretching.

He should be ashamed of himself.

A combo of some good saves (especially towards the end) along with LOTS of lacklustre finishing. We must be the LEAST clinical team in the PL. At least 3 or 4 of those chances the keeper shouldn't even have had an earthly, but most of the time we just slung it down his throat.

Draws against junk like Burnley Fulham and Sheffield is so f*cking annoying, when everyone else seems to give them a slap.

Ain't that the truth

Worth watching the highlights. There were a few. The one from Adingra at the near post when still 0-1 was an incredible reflex save.
Okay I will take at look at it on Match of the day later, but I thought he had just blocked his front post as keepers should do?
 


Thought only the save from Hinsh header was really exceptional. The rest while good saves you’d expect a good keeper to make

OK - two particularly good saves, as opposed to the five identified by Warren. But even those two saves stopped us winning 3-1.
I didn't say the saves weren't important. I just don't think his performance was so impressive it ranks at the best performance by a goalkeeper at the Amex.

Yup, this. At no point for the vast majority of the game did anybody (shirley) think that they were watching a superlative goalkeeping performance. For most of the game, on account of our crappy finishing, he didn't have all that much to do

No, probably not the best. There have been (all too many) occasions when GKs have come to the Amex and played the game of their lives, and nothing would have got past them had we played to midnight.
Nonetheless, his saves gained his team a point and denied us two, demonstrating how important top quality shot-stopping is for a GK.

If you shoot well within his reach he's going to look good. ( I'm not saying he's not)

if you get a deflection . . . .

Don’t think it was any performance worthy of note, more poor finishing.

And the clap to the NS at FT, means he can, respectively, f*** off.

Good game but not close to that Cardiff keeper‘s performance imo. Our finishing was rubbish and I think Pedro mis kicked an absolute sitter, hope I get to see a replay of that, looked abysmal to me in real time.

Did Traffold & Verbruggen set any record for the youngest combined age for the two goalkeepers

It’s still Bogdan for Bolton and it’s not even close
That game was absolutely mental. We absolutely battered them and led 1-0 for most the game while he kept them in it countless times.

Then I got back to the car having left two minutes early (thanks to a whining 7 year old wanting to go home) and found we'd only drawn!
