    This is what annoys me.

    We sign a goalkeeper because he is good at the ball with his feet.

    * me, the guy actually dives out the way of shots.

    I want my goalkeeper to command his box, and be a * nightmare to beat. I honestly don't give a flying * how good he is with his feet. Kicking a ball 9-5 and getting paid for it will give anybody a decent enough ability to kick a ball.

    * joke, the defence was * awful tonight don't get me wrong. But this guy is a * imposter.

    The worst goalkeeper I've seen in my 27 years.

    Still can't wrap my head around that second goal. All DDV had to do was stand there, and instead it actually looked like he shifted his body in mid-air so he COULDN'T catch it.

    Always bemused me whenever I saw folk on here slating Gordon and calling for De Vries to get a game. As if he was going to have improved having become a year older and sitting on the bench in that time. I'll be using that Zenit goal as an example for why Gordon gets picked for me every time over De Vries.

    "But he was unlucky to get 7 put past him by Barca" Aye and he let in a 60 yarder similar to tonight by Killie's Coulibaly like it was swung in from Bridgeton Cross.

    We have needed better quality goalkeepers fot a while and simply this hasnt happened.
    This is a result of a failure to act.

    Scott Bain is our last hope, there is something about him saving a shot outside the box that makes him * in his pants. Maybe in the championship where he has played most of his career the english players don't shoot from outside the box?

    I hate to be a *, but him making a meal of that * easy shot on target, is what’s cost us the game, imo.

    If you hadn’t watched the game last night you wouldn’t know whether this was a goalkeeping dive or if he had just got KO’d.

    He called the shot a 'goalkeepers nightmare', most shots must seem like a nightmare to him as the majority end up in the net. I'd have respected him more if he just held his hands up and said he was at fault instead of petty excuses.

    Must have the worst shots to goal ratio in our history by quite some margin.

    He could have easily stood in the middle of the goals and put both hands on it.
    That dive was embarrassing it looked like he dived out the way.

    I would have been avoiding the media after that if I was him instead of coming up with excuses.

    Been doing my best to give him a chance this season but the guy just doesn't save shots. No clue how he has made it this far in his career playing at a decent level.

    The start to his Celtic career could hardly have been more dreadful. At the beginning of last season when he was given the nod over Gordon, it seemed like literally any shot - from any distance - was a danger to our goal. I couldn't believe how bad he was.

    Last night was like the beginning of last season all over again. I genuinely don't know how he made it to this level as a goalkeeper.

    Guys a * joke. Stand still and its saved.

    A keepers nightmares a ball bouncing right in front of a stretched out dive is a nightmare, hit a divet, have a woman flash her * in your face, not a shot straight down the centre. *.
