Player Guglielmo Vicario

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Better than Robbo in his early days or Peak Brad ?
In my opinion yes. I think if Vic is playing for us back then in their time period he looks even better because he’s not being asked to play very much with his feet.

Both were very good traditional keepers but put them in the situations Vic is in these days with additional sweeping and ball playing etc, and they come up well short.

It’s a lot harder to be a top keeper in the “modern times” for sure.
 
If one of his passes to mf led to a chance we would be calling him a clown. Management need to take some responsibility
he is going longer more now, nothing wrong with that at all. but even the way he kicks it now, he looks like his technique has got a little cleaner. hell never be a ball playing keeper, but at least brush the technique up as much as you can and play sensible stuff.
 
seen enough of this gaffe merchant, get rid, hes a huge problem for us.

first goal, gray is at fault too, but he shouldnt even have the ball passed to him, vicario should see that he has someone steaming in behind him to press, you dont pass the ball to someone if they have someone steaming in on their blind side, not in that position of the pitch!
 
Kinsky must be literally napping on the practice pitch to not get in ahead of this fraud
theres been games where theres no way kinsky would of been any worse, today was one. this idiot needs to be dropped now, he had two good games against weak opposition, so did everyone. back against a semi competent mens side and hes crap.

there is no way kinsky makes us worse. vicario is a decent shot stopper, thats it. the rest of his game is shite, and that shite is damaging, im not sure the shot stopping makes up for it.
 
another solid display to be fair, his kicking looks cleaner now, must of been worked on. the boos were the best thing to happen to vicario, looks like hes had a mentality shift.

Watch it again and you will see Gray runn8ng towards him, arms outstretched asking for the ball. A first time pass with his right foot is required ,for some reason he takes a touch and Sangare pounces.
It’s on gray , not Vic.
Vic can have the second one.
 
Not at fault for the first goal today. Frank and Iraola and a few other managers play that fucking stupid tactic of a midfielder dropping deep to receive the ball from a goalkeeper, Fat Carl did it too and the Uruguayan donkey got caught plenty of times, and it's fucking stupid and fucking pointless and leads to chances for the opposition.

Vicario is still a truly shit keeper

i know gray asks for it, but he doesnt have eyes in the back of his head, vicario can see that he has someone steaming in behind him. yes he should have passed first time, did he get a man on call though? i dont think vicario is vocal enough in that regard, there was a moment later when davies kicked the ball away under no pressure and it seemed like davies turned back to moan to vicario over a lack of communication.


end of the day, hes yet again involved in gaffes, the second goal was another bit of shit from him, hes just a joke.

if youre a keeper, do you pass the ball to a midfielder whos coming close to goal with a player steaming in behind them?

teams know we are a joke at playing out, if they sense we are going to try and overplay back there they are going to stick a hard press on cos they know we are a liability.
