cc_star Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 What a difference it made having a keeper coming off their line to punch clear, helping the defence and avoiding the ball dropping to opposition forwards or onrushing midfielders in our box. Some good shot-stopping on show too If only we'd had it over the past quarter of the season
lgfualol Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Stepped up well. Shame whoever is coaching them is doing a shit job at making their kicks better
Spicer Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Tbh he had very little to do. Just to pick the ball out the net. His distribution wasn't great. We will really see how good he is over the next couple of weeks.
Unabomber Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Looked very composed, distribution a lot better than Kasper.
Guest kristianity77 Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Yeah I'd say his overall distribution is not as good as Kaspers, but he fills you with more confidence from a spectators point of views when crosses are swung in etc. Hes a more commanding presence and no mistake.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 He looked class today, can't fault him
Harry - LCFC Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 He didn't have a lot to do in fairness. I want to praise him but there isn't a lot to comment on. One good punch a couple of decent saves. That's it really. The defence sorted everything else out.

His kicking at times was crap. So is Kasper's! I'm just happy we have two quality keepers. Hamer is long term option for me.

Bert Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Let's see how he does next week against a team that load the ball into the box.
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Good save from Toure's shot, not much he could do about the goal really.
Saxondale Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Though people criticise Kasper's distribution because, to be honest, he fluffs it sometimes, we scored no end of goals last season as a result of his quick, long kicks.

HoustonFox Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Let's see how he does next week against a team that load the ball into the box. Let's see how he works with our defenders too. I fancy him in goal more than Kasper for the West Ham game with his height. I wish his beard was more an angry beard than a hipster one though. Bet he loves a craft beer.
cc_star Posted 13 December 2014 Author Posted 13 December 2014 Do not underestimate just how much more pressure you create for yourselves if you allow the ball to drop rather than be punched clear. Although next week is a different kettle of fish as West Ham pepper the box with balls... And that will make this ability even more important, because the situation would be worse if those kind of balls aren't dealt with, that's what percentages that Big Sam plays is all about
MPH Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Took his chance. Can he build on it? Perfect time to come in, mind. All eyes on the manager and outfield players. But if he keeps performing like this it might prove difficult for Kasper to get back in the team..
Bamba's Babes Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Hamer vs Man City distribution > Hamer vs Stoke City distribution. Good performance, might have done better with the goal.
Guest Kopfkino Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Let's see how he does next week against a team that load the ball into the box. He did perfectly well at Stoke so I have every confidence in him
Matt Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 MUCH better than Kasper. I just hope he keeps it up and it isn't a case of when Kasper is back to fitness he'll walk back into the team. I pretty confident if Kasper was playing today we'd have conceded more than 1. Also, nice to have a keeper than can kick straight.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Very pleased he had a good game. Well done Ben.
The Blue Moon Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 A definite improvement on Kasper. Time will tell whether he's a Premier keeper, but he's proven to be the best we have. I think crosses into the box have been our obvious weakness for a couple of years now and sides have picked up on that. Maybe now we can change that without that showboating starjumping pretentious tosser between the sticks.
Larry_LCFC Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 He had very little to do other than hoof it up in all honesty. The bits he did do looked good. Lets not get too ahead of ourselves.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 13 December 2014 Posted 13 December 2014 Seemed more assured at the back today from set pieces maybe this is because of Hamer. Been decent in his two games anyway
