I would just like to take this time, when we're all feeling a bit deflated after the result yesterday, to admire that ball he played to Moura. As an individual moment within the game, it was a thing of beauty.

His worst game - the first Sissoko 'dummied' him but he should still have saved it. Sissoko was back to "Mr.50%" again.

Gazza should have waited for ball to be kicked, but like a lot of poor goalies he gambled needlessly and looked a complete idiot in the penalties!

You're genuinely having a go at him because of Jorginho's penalty? Oh do fuck off mate

Ever played in goal? You do realise that goalkeepers need to commit before the ball is kicked to increase their chances of getting to the thing before it gets past them right? Hence why we see far more penalties scored than saved, it doesn't make Paulo a poor keeper when I'm pretty sure every keeper that's ever played has let in more than he has saved when it comes to penalties.

Having a moan about him for the penalty, seriously go take up watching Bowls or something pal. Jorginho gave him the eyes and nudged it the other way, it was a cool, calm penalty and to blame e goalkeeper I think is a little cheap

Somebody should tell Gazzanigga to WAIT for the ball to be kicked at penalties then dive as he would for any shot - he's good at shot-stopping.

But on penalties, Gazzanigga is the WORST ON THE PLANET!

You’ve seen the guy face 5 penalties ever and call him the worst on the planet. How can people actually be this stupid?
 
I thought the guy really excelled today and if he keeps giving performances like that I sincerely hope Poch doesn't just drop him as soon as Hugo is fit again. Too much of this favouritism regarding team selection. Let Lloris sit it out if he has to.
 
100% yes

Hugo is a liability, and it’s gone from once in a while to five times a year.

But we all know how this plays out don’t we.
Gaz will be dropped the second Hugo can bend his elbow, the farcical errors will return and people will say “awwwww poor Poch, he hasn’t got the players”
 
Hugo is a world class keeper at times prone to error whereas Gazza is an average keeper with poor decision making and too slow off his line. They are not even comparable.
 
For me, he’s an average keeper.

Everything he’s shown proves he doesn’t have what it takes to be a keeper for a top club.

Being the backup for a top 6 club is probably his limit
