so, in BP super Dynamos parallel universe BKXX would have been in the middle of the goal. behind the wall. and unsighted. great starting point. perhaps he should just play blindfolded..... thats how stubbins appears to coach.
or, in real life, the "post-man" is lined up with the post (shoulder outside), and a wall of defenders is used to cover half (and maybe a bit more) of the goal. BK is then positioned to cover the side of the goal that not covered by the wall.
he didnt get within cooee of it due to it going up and over the wall meaning he had little time to see it, so of course he moved "late"
it appears to appease his detratctors he needs to dive full stretch at balls already past him.... or dive on the assumptionthe ball has been kicked over the wall and dive before he actually knows where its going, this could lead to hilarity if the attacking team play the ball short, or simply slide past the wall to an uncovered goal, while bk is in mid air saving the ball that wasn't kicked.
Even the yanks get it.

Someone tell Petr Czech he doesn't know what he's doing.
I reckon BK should do something daring...like set the wall to protect the far post. At least he will see it coming....
Cech isn't even set for the free kick yet. Great photo...

an EPL keeper getting nowhere near it either.
must a be terribly positioned, mustne be a great a free kick.
he really should hve stood behind the wall to give himself more chance of covering the side the goal that the wall was covering, and ignore the fact he couldnt see the ball.
John Ruddy is hardly a top keeper. What about Courtious or de Gea?
But I have to conceed, I agree with Gaz re positing and wall. The most important thing IMO is being able to see the ball, if you can't see the ball, you're ****ed ala Finkler vs BK earlier this season.
and to also be fair Mr Fish, all those examples you gave were of keepers who have never made it to an A-League 1st team.
(and that's probably why).

can we change this to the Olli Kahn thread
Bk needs to put arms out when he dives otherwise its just a salmon.

Lol. So Finkler's free kick wasn't anything to with the wall and Victree running subterfuge, but yaya's is?
Wow. Man city really better sign finkler up quick.
My point isn't BK should have got it. My point is BK is shit at FK's point blank.
It is also rather pertinent to note we had this debate when he let Finklers effort in that was on his side. BK Fanbois used then it ain't BK's fault excuse then.
Using same excuse now when it ain't on his side.
End of day from what we have learned here is BK won't save any free kicks and is not to take any responsibility when they go in.
Straight out of the Stubbins excuse manual that.
On another note can we get a keeper who can actually stop a free kick or is that too much to ****ing ask because BK ain't up to it???
Yayas free kick that wall left the keeper up shit creek by falling apart and failing to do the job they were put there to do.
Finklers free kick the wall had **** all to do with it. Straight through BK's side of the goal.
I would also speculate that if Hicks had of went for the side BK was on he probably scores anyway
please stop talking now, you cant even go 1 post without contradicting yourself.Quote:

have a breath, a drink, then listen to your mate Stubbs and #moveforward.
No fanboi's are arguing he's great. No fanboi's are trying to ignore weaknesses.
Some, are trying to suggest that if we are going to nit pick on technical issues to do with goalkeeping it might serve a worthwhile discussion to have some knowledge on goalkeeping.
The suggestion that he should have been in the middle of his goal, is a perfect case in point.
does anyone honestly think that BK is at fault for our problems. lets start with cheatin refs, then work our way through the whole club then you can finally add bk to having made a mistake or 2 like every other player.
long story short
no one in the team is anything special and bk is certainly no exception
Is no one going to point out that in almost all the images posted as examples, the keepers are closer to the centre of the goals than BK ever is?
I'm not saying BK could have saved that free kick - my point is that he positions himself so that he has no chance.
Arguing against him being in the middle of the goals is misrepresenting what most of us are saying.
Ball in different positions
Which is what? That his game needs to improve and positioning on free kicks is one obvious area?
No-ones tugging against that.
I'm arguing that if we are going to slam the goalkeeper for technical errors our analysis should at least be accurate.
AND that every other team member deserves the same level of scrutiny.
But hey, while ever our pass completion rate is below 65% and we lose 6 from 10 tackles, let's focus on the keeper by suggesting a way to improve a technical flaw in his game is to do something even more wrong.
Exactly, people are all too happy to bag out Galloway and Gallagher etc (deservedly so) yet for some reason BK seems to be a protected species with some. Let's face it, the bloke is the worst keeper in the league and also worse than most of the other squad's reserve keepers.
I hate all of the players.
All of the coaching staff.
All of the ownership team
And all of the fans.
I'm the only fair and balanced bloke on here.
Would take BK over:
Sydney bloke.
Any Gypo keeper (because they are Gypos)
Any ex-Gypo keeper.
Bloke from Melb City.
The bloke who played for Roar before Theo got back.
Any other backups in the league.
The rest I'd have over BK.
