Kasper Schmeichel

Recommended Posts

he made worse errors against Spurs in our last league match, I don't think you can put that on the Eriksen incident it was a more difficult header then you think given where it bounced

Well ultimately he cost them the game so if he wasn't up for playing he should have said something. Nobody would have thought any less of him if he'd been subbed off.

I think that's a little harsh. Denmark had plenty of chances to have wrapped the game up. But actually the point his dad was making was that it was less about Denmark "wanting" to play and more about them being forced to take the least worst option of playing last night (rather than resuming today)

don't care about the finland goal. kasper would normally keep that out. He's a proper man's man imo - hero to be exact. Now that ericsson is aliv and recovering the Danes will come back and play hard. Don't count them out just yet.

He was part of the commentary yesterday and was struggling to hold back the tears. He expressed immense proudness of his son and his teammates going out to play the game to the end. But he looked in shock and Povlsen had to abort mid-sentence several times as it was all too overwhelming.
 

This is highly insensitive and also doesn't recognise that Hjulmand couldn't exactly sub off everyone. He said after the game most players were not in a state to continue. They tried best as they could and that has to be commended.

Not insensitive at all tbh. If he wasn't in a state to continue I and everyone else would understand. And if as you say most players were not in a state to continue, but they did anyway, then that's an absolute disgrace and I would wholeheartedly agree that the players have been failed in every single way.

It shouldn't take actions of yesterday for that to happen.

 

So many people on here jumped on him after the Spurs defeat but, as I said at the time, I lose count the amount of times he keeps us in games.

No, it shouldn't.  I am thinking about it purely as a show of support, pride and respect for how he reacted to and then dealt with the most difficult of situations.

 

I consider this season to have been his second best ever for us but that is not what it would be about. Maybe a show of support after 41 minutes (I think it was 41).

Kasper Schmeichel admits it was 'damn nice' to see Christian Eriksen 'smile, laugh and be himself' after visiting his stricken Denmark team-mate in hospital... as he opens up on the 'violent, inhuman situation' and hails the response of Simon Kjaer

 

Kasper Schmeichel has revealed that the 'wonderful experience' of visiting Christian Eriksenin hospital is helping him cope with the horror of his team-mate's collapse.
 

The Inter Milan midfielder required 13 minutes of CPR after suffering a cardiac arrest just before half-time in Denmark's Euro 2020 opener with Finland on Saturday, but is now in a stable condition in hospital.
 

Schmeichel visited Eriksen on Sunday and says it was 'great' to see the progress the former Tottenham star has made, less than 48 hours after it was feared he had died on the pitch in Copenhagen.
 

During a press conference on Monday, the Leicester goalkeeper said: 'It was damn nice to see him smile and laugh and be himself. Just notice that he is there. 
 

'It was a wonderful experience and something that has helped me see that he was okay after lying there.

 

'We talked about nothing and everything. As long as he is well - that has been the most important thing. He has experienced something that we have not experienced. 

 

'He has a completely different experience of the situation. It was great to talk to him, and now we have a lot of work to try to navigate.'

 

Schmeichel, who helped form a protective barrier around Eriksen with the rest of his team-mates, also opened up on the 'violent experience' of seeing his friend receive CPR on the pitch.

 

'It's a violent experience,' he said. 'But he is here today, and I am very grateful for that

 

The only heroes there are are the doctors who saved him. We are professional football players, but these people dedicate their lives to saving people. That they could do it under that pressure. 

 

'I cannot describe how much admiration I have for them. That they could bring him back is a miracle. I even think about how I would have my team-mates react if I was lying there. And then we have some amazing people on this team. A captain and a coach who knows how to act.

 

'It characterises us as a team and country that we stand together until the very end.

 

'Personally, I tried to imagine if it was me who was lying there. I knew Christian's wife, children, and parents were there, so at one point I tried to look for them.

 

'It is an inhuman situation for them to go through.'

 

Schmeichel also reserved special praise for his captain Simon Kjaer, who was the first to attend to Eriksen and helped open his airway before medics arrived, and later consoled the midfielder's wife Sabrina.

 

'I am incredibly proud to have him as captain,' Schmeichel added.

 

'It does not surprise me that he did as he did. He has an incredibly sensitive and human side of him. Simon and Christian spend a lot of time together in Milan as they live close to each other.

 

'We did not make any decisions. We did, as we did. I think it's a very natural thing. 
 

'Simon... I do not know what to say. He is not only an exceptional person.'

 

In a short statement to Gazzetta dello Sport on Monday, Eriksen confirmed that he is feeling better and thanked everyone who helped save his life.

 

He said: 'Thank you, I won't give up. I feel better now - but I want to understand what's happened.


'I want to say thank you all for what you did for me.'

Gotta love the writing in the Daily Mail. 
 

Kasper’s definitely made of stronger stuff than most. Just hope he gets the time he needs to process all of this and to make sure he can also be at a good and healthy place mentally.

so with all the praise Ward has been getting it got me wondering, how many bad games in a row would Kasper have to have before he would be dropped? Not just the odd mistake here or there but properly bad performances. Most outfield players would probably be dropped after around 3 but with Kasper he would probably get more so how many do you think it would take?

 

For me it would be between 5 and 10

I'm no fan of the rhetoric that Kasper is dreadful at distributing (he's erratic at worst), but surely he should be compared to the other clubs in the top 6 and not just with the keepers below us in the table?

So for all the flack he gets on here for his distribution, 98% of short passes successful. The most accurate long passer of the goalkeepers on that list.

Too many people appear to want 100% accuracy and don’t look at the bigger picture. Still baffles me daily when I see Kasper getting any stick on here.

 

That 98% short accuracy is joint second last in the division!  
 

depends how you view it.  Short passes should really be 99%. 

 

long passes - he’s pretty good as long as he isnt chipping it up for the opposition full back to steam onto or sticking it out into touch

98% of 517 is 506.6 - basically just 10 missed short passes all season - not much to complain about really

The issue isn’t ability to pass. The issue with kasper is actually that he tries overly complicated things.

As a goalkeeper, one misplaced short pass can be a lot to complain about!!!!!

 

However, I believe that kasper’s only clear error that led directly to a goal was on the last day (someone will let me know if that’s wrong)
