Player Antonín Kinský

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The commentator didn't even know if he touched it.
The save is overhyped. Like most things with Kinsky at the moment.
Someone else said his performances over the last two games could make him the best keeper in the world.
Fuck - against Villa he only had one shot to face and it went in.

What is it with this guy? The blonde hair.
If he is a solid number 2 - that will be great.
No need to get carried a away - and hype up.

Kinksy was excellent for us this past game. You must have been watching something else.

Tommo mentioned 'if' he keeps up these performances, he would be one of the best keepers in the league. That's a plenty fair, plenty limited statement. You misquoted, or maybe misremembered it.
 
I have watched it and it's not abundantly clear to me.
Both saves are if anything slight touches.

It would have been quicker to type "I don't know what I'm talking about." - same end product, less effort.

Yup, trolling.
 
I dont get this narrative of hes only good enough if we go down. Hes done nothing wrong since Madrid and even then that was only partially his fault. The Madrid pitch is infamous for messing keepers up.

Since then not a single goal we have let in ive fought he could do any better with.

Until proven otherwise he deserves a fair crack at keeping that no1 jersey
I was pretty sure his Spurs-career if not his whole career were over after that Madrid game.

Lifting yourself up, and bouncing back from that, would've taken tremendous mental strength. So he's one of the few, if not alone in this squad with those qualities.

So he's a keeper(sorry) for me!!
 
There a good argument that had Vicario not got his hernia we’d be down by now given the chasm in performance between the two of them.

In the injuries mixing pot we finally got some help!

With injuries to Vicario and Romero we have massively improved.

Zero chance of putting together such a run of 4 games with the initial two in the defense. One flapping around, shouting like mental and kicking the ball to god-knows-where. Other falling asleep and deciding to actually try to defend properly only in odd minutes on the match clock.
 
Nothing about that not being saved is inexplicable.

The shot was a "knuckle ball" shot which was hit very hard with late swerve.

Do you know how hard those are to save?

Gareth Bale used to score free kicks for fun with this technique, where the ball would enter the goal and you think "that's not even in the corner".

Focusing on the keeper is taking away from the skill and technique of the shot.

It's comparable to cricket where late swing can make a batsman look awful when they handle conventional swing easily.

Very few keepers would have saved that shot. The first 10 yards the ball appears to be going dead straight, where Kinsky was set.

Then the late swerve came into effect.

It's like blaming David James for not moving to Ronaldo's famous freekick v. Portsmouth.

Slow motion makes everything look worse.
And that scouse twat chatting shite like he knows about goalkeeping swayed a few people.
