Most keepers jumping like BK does. Most will bounce on the balls of their feet without the entire foot leaving the ground. This way they still get the advantages of being on the balls of their feet, but they can still react to the shot/cross. By jumping, BK loses this advantage.

Maybe our ideas of bk movements differ.
I'll watch this part of his game more closely.

From 0:37 there's a shooting drill that allows the small bounce in to the balls of the feet to be clearly seen.

If you are naturally gifted enough to be extremely agile and have a good standing (or for cross fit faggots box jump) leap, bouncing before the ball is struck does not matter. What I like about BK is his ability to command his box and come for crosses, playing both as a keeper and a centre half myself there's nothing better than having a keeper who can come for crosses, because in all honesty how bad have we been defending corners hey
Jaliens gives me the horn
watched the warmup and birraz looked completely uninterested which affected the warmup of bk. it didn't go unnoticed by the training staff, either. really poor professionalism since the team comes firdt, though i'm sure he'd say he is unphased.
we will loose
Well if you got dropped after not doing much wrong, wouldn't you be a bit pissed off?

Wind up, right ?
Can't wait to finish my "Birraz Bloopers 13/14" video !
As it seems BK will now have a long spell between the sticks I reckon Birraz agent will be working overtime to get him a gig in the Romanian second division during the January window. We may never see him again.

He can feel pissed off if he wants, but he still has to do his job (whether that be playing or supporting his fellow goalkeeper to prepare adequately).
Was spoiled under GvE
Fix Biraz coming off his line and taking control of his six yard box.
He might be better in every other aspect than BK but what howlers has BK made in his return to the starting line up?
(serious question, I've not watched the last two games)
I don't think anyone is doubting that our defensive efforts are anything better than average at times but having confidence in them or not shouldn't determine whether you come 4 yards off your line to get a ball. Maybe the backline is so shambolic because they have zero faith in their keeper to get stuff that SHOULD be his?
(I play devils advocate for a living, muahahahaha)
