Embarrassing?
Do you read your own posts?
It happens all the time, every week.
Such a stupid statement to make, that "no decent keeper gets beaten from that range".
It makes everything else he says pointless because that one claim is utter bullshit.
Tbf it may just seem that way to us as Spurs fans because we never shoot, or at least never trouble the keeper from range...
It was a great strike tbf - at the time I thought he didn't extend his arm which he has previous for too but he wasn't saving that in a million years looking again. Should he be further out of his goal, probably - still doesn't amount to a blunder or reason to get the other idiot back in on Sunday.
it wasn't always like this until he went to the stupid hung-ho style. it's like all ability to defence was deleted from their heads unless it involves recoveries
Kinky pulls his hand away - when he should be going the other way, Very weird .
His left foot gave way for the Villa game , Very weird .
Vicario has been poor this year - but also on occasion very good.
Kinsky's poor to good games throughout his time at Spurs - is tilted heavily to the poor.
It's true he appears calmer than Vic - and doesn't remonstrate. but seeing as we have one match left I can live with Vic's personality for one more match if we stay up.
Keepers beaten from that range before last night.
Buffon
Casillas
Allison
Schmeichel
Seaman
Oblak
Valdes
Courtois
I can go on.
It's a pretty fundamental flaw from a keep.
Surely someone has told him - " you have much more chance of saving a shot if you don't pull your hands away from it ".
And if they haven't they should now.
Added two to my ignore list in a day. Been a few years since I could say that.
My son has a chance to play GK at university over here and I asked him what he saw - "probably saw it late and then it moved late. Super tough to save"
Kinsky has to play Sunday
Theres going to be so much nervous energy floating about , we dont need Vicario adding to it

Newcastle this season
Athletico this season
Villa this season
Chelsea last night ?
He has had one good game: Leeds, and 3/4 bad ones
Last season it was the same ratio .
Vic over his whole time at Spurs has a much better ratio .
I think if Vic is fit RDZ starts him.
It's a horrible choice and whichever way RDZ goes could go wrong.
Played professional keeper in the USL and this is a good summary.
The pulling the hand back thing might be an issue in other cases but wasnt in this case. He was too far from the shot and not getting to it regardless of arm extension.
He wasn't on his toes to start with meaning a slower reaction. The ball didn't swerve late, it swerved 8 feet in 30 yards and didn't deviate in any way. The ball was struck from the Goalies right of the penalty spot, yet he hadn't moved his feet from left of the penalty spot.
He was slow to move, read it poorly and as with many goals he conceded didn't fully commit.
A good keeper saves it.
These can all be true at the same time:
Even if he did stretch the right way - he would not have saved it
He has form for pulling his hand away from the ball - should we be buying a keeper with such a terrible and bizarre flaw?
He was slow to get down - so add the quicker to get down and stretch your hand in the right direction - and a better keeper might have saved it
In your fairytale, Vicario makes all of the saves Kinsky does.
In reality, he does not.
This is the guy who claimed that Kinsky didn't even touch the ball for his fantastic first save in the last game, even after watching it back!
yeah they hand thing was odd. The only thing I can figure is that when he saw the movement he thought it was going wide and didnt want to get a touch on it to make it a corner
