Key seems to effortlessly glide past his man several times each game and it's great to see but it's what happens next that he needs to work on. He looked a world beater setting up the winner on Saturday but all too often his good work does'nt end well.
You could be describing Caprice there too. Very fast, pretty skillful, but sometimes tries to be just that little bit too clever at the final moment. I hope GC can coach that out of him because MT never seemed able to.
And coach him to trust his left foot more.
On several occasions last night he twisted himself out of a dangerously tight situation and followed it up with intelligent distribution.
He came for a deep cross, and as he did so he made the decision that, being stretched, attempting the catch constituted an unacceptable risk. He palmed the ball well clear of immediate danger. I didn't see any flapping.
We've definitely done that before, a copy of something England did at the either the last World Cup or Euros.
Correct. Pretty sure we used that last season
We did this a few seasons back. First came about when England used it in the World cup if I remember rightly.
No flapping , just a good save under enormous pressure for a young boy , didn’t let anyone down and helped us gain a valuable point . That’s sonny , Harry and Ed all with there league one appearances to their name , the future is bright
In a funny way, now we know that Blackman is OK, that was a good situation for him to make his debut. No time to get nervous, raucous crowd, team-mates giving him encouragement, etc etc and he seems to have taken it all in his stride. Augers well for the future, assuming Scott Brown decamps to Rotherham.
