Kasper Schmeichel...

Ok, should have gone to SpecSavers as I suspected then.

 

Can’t he just have Harry hoof it? Pretty sure Harry’s kicking must be better?

(or is it a pride thing...)

Defenders in general go back to keepers far too much

[Guest SO1]

This guy was an absolute GOD today.  His shot stopping and distribution together were the best I've ever seen in a Brendan Rodgers side. 11 players not 10 and a goalkeeper.

A complete goalkeeper. His low hard passes to teammates feet up field was sublime. His shot stopping World Class. We are lucky to have someone of his caliber in this club. Long may it continue.

Amazing all the garbage I hear on this thread.

Sorry but I though his distribution for the most part was very poor. His shot stopping on the other hand was fantastic.

He had a few iffy moments first half with some poor kicks and coming way out of his goal when he didn't need to. But apart from those instances, he was rock solid and was always very willing to show for the ball when it came back to Morgan or Söyüncü. Very alert and looks confident.

His kicking is probably the most marmite of any keeper we have had. He can hit some absolute peaches which create chances and other times he makes a complete hash of it. But objectively speaking, "very poor" seems overly harsh.

Maybe it is a bit harsh. I'm just not a fan of these chipped balls in our own half. To be honest the likelihood of us signing a goalkeeper who is a great shot stopper and brilliant at playing out from the back is very slim. There's often a trade off and if given the choice I'd much rather have a goalkeeper who is a great shot stopper but not great at playing out from the back.

A bit quiet one here, considering he has raised his game as much as anyone. His crucial saves have been just as important as the sexy football at the other end.

 

 

[StanSP]

In case people missed it today 

 

 

[TheUltimateWinner]

He’s one of the best keepers in the league. So glad he’s spent the main part of his career with us, a true fox.

[UniFox21]

Brilliant save, and at such an important part of the game.  

We sometimes forget how lucky we are to have him as our keeper 

[1884FoxInTheBox]

There wasn't just one key save, feast your eyes!

Legend

[AKCJ]

What a keeper.

 

On his night it's impossible to put the ball past him.

[StriderHiryu]

 

Longer version on a danish site, you can see him getting mobbed at the end by his team mates! No wonder, a clear MOTM.

You could probably only put a case for Alison or Ederson ahead of Kasper in the league. He's overtaken De Gea.

 

Looking stronger than ever at the moment!

Legend.

Reminds me of a previous outing our Kasper had in the same venue

Kasper is now level with King for the most international caps while at the club (50).

He won them the match. I'd like to see the highlights of his distribution though

If you ever needed any justification for him being one of our top earners and the first name on the team sheet, watch that video!

That last save reminds me of the one in Copenhagen in the Champions League.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Great professional, great keeper, hopefully lots more years to come from Kasper.

[SAFC1]

He was superb yesterday like 

[mucfox]

Last night incredible four saves from Kasper.

 

He is a true hero in Denmark and also in Leicester. I'm still very happy that Kasper plays with the Foxes...a true legend
