Seems to me like they knew Chelsea and City would score a few and dont want to damage Lossl's confidence going into key games(survival clearly all they want and games against Cardiff are more important than city and Chelsea)

Lossl will be in goal next week

Yeah bad day at the office. If keepers could be subbed off at half time he probably would.

What do you mean by If.

A goalkeeper can be taken off at HT

Having a mare

No chance. A manager picks his best available 11. Apparently Hamer had a good pre season so Wagner fancies him

Confirming what most of us knew, Hamer is not a top flight keeper

That explains why he’s starting then.

Could we have a thread for the Premier League where we talk about live PL games etc., just like the World Cup thread?

Jessie,

Not sure that CL would be the best place to host such a thread.

I'm pretty sure this type of site/chat room/thread exists elsewhere already especially for those obsessed with Fantasy Football and who want to keep up with developments at every live Prem game.

Ben Hamer left Charlton to double his wages at Leicester for sitting on the bench.
TBF to Ben he made some great saves for CAFC: Brighton last minute and Leeds penalty save to name just 2.
He also had crazy times flapping and the Colchester mare when he took too long and kicked the ball into the forward and it rebounded into his net.

Neil Etheridge only played a few game for us but kept the score down at Watford in the 5-0 (how wasn't it 10) despite being at fault for one of the goals.

Andy Woodman told me when he was Cafc keeper coach that both Elliott and Randolph could play at a higher level when they keep that 90 minute concentration.(both in early twenties then)

David Button letting in a 35 yard free kick at the valley against Millwall !

Always felt Pope was similar to Tutt, who would have gone on to be a top 3 England keeper. Nick had the hard low shot at his body weakness which he has now eradicated.

Scott Carson had a good season at Charlton but will always have the nightmare of Croatia at Wembley in the Wally with the brolly.

Hamer 'exposed' |((:>) .. as an aside .. why did sky choose to broadcast the City v Huddersfield game ? .. surely this was one of the most predictable results ever in the history of the prem .. I didn't bother watching as I like to see a game where each side has at least a chance of getting a result and not one side led like lambs to the slaughter

So they can tick Huddersfield off the list.

Guaranteed goals for their armchair viewers.

I always considered Hamer to be a good L1 keeper and a below average Championship keeper. Got to admit though, he's an entertaining prem keeper................

Hamer was an excellent keeper for us but he looked way out of his depth there.

Top strikers like Aguero strike the ball that bit sweeter and more accurately than your average L1/Championship forward and not many of them could finish like Aguero did for his first goal.

Doesnt help the level of Aguero either

There arent even many Premier League Strikers that are as good as him

Nowhere near as good as Tony Watt though....:)

Neil Etheridge joins the list. Darren Randolph could be back there as well.

We still have Nick Pope, Ben Hamer and Robbie Elliott in the frame.

Extraordinary with Etheridge. He looks a really good keeper yet he had not one but two loan/short term spells with us and presumably didn't set the world alight - did he ever actually play a game for us?

5 I believe. Interesting interview I heard with him. We offered him a deal (around the Bob Peeters time and he had been training at SL) and he rejected it because he believed he could do better. Ended up singing for Oldham and then joined us on loan the same season.
