Steffen

Conceded 8 goals in 4 games, the most in the league, that’s concerning to me. I know the defence has a lot to answer for as well like.
 
Flapped all night.
and it was never a foul to disallow gayles 'goal'
His arms were up all over steffen but he still made a hash of it and went down. Far to soft he should be wiping Gayle out there. Came for one later and got nowhere near it then had no idea where the ball had gone. Got away with the baker miss when you should have easily pushed it wide. Haven’t seen anything to suggest he’s an upgrade on what we had at the end of last year in Daniels
 
I don't think he's let in a goal that he shouldn't have, as yet... But I agree he's not the dominant keeper I hoped for

Good shot stopper, great distribution, but he's gonna cost us goals
 
He looks very dodgy. Great feet but is poor on crosses and saves. Doesn’t inspire confidence and adds to a very shaky defence.
 
Remember he's barely played in 3 seasons or something!? I agree he looks a bit shaky.. but let's give him 10 games or so to get his confidence and find his feet.

Technically he looks decent / good distribution and a good shot stopper.. His decision making and confident claiming etc will (hopefully) come with some match sharpness.

He's gone from benchwarming a prem club to being thrown in the Champo which is one of the most physical, aggressive, fast paced intense environments! Bound to be a bit sketchy in places initially..

I'm gonna hold my faith and let's revisit this in 10-15 games and see if he's found his flow!

Fingers crossed.. tonights result has sickened me tho.. i feel so deflated!
 
Wiped Gayle out? You mean, fouled him? And if he did ‘wipe him out’ and the referee gave a penalty then presumably you’d be happy with that?

FFS. It was a foul on Steffen. There’s no debate to be had about it.

But I would agree with those who don’t feel *that* confident in him yet. That one he pushed out into the box was stupid. Still early days of course but he does need to sharpen up a bit IMO.
