Ben Foster, who is commonly the uncommon pundit who’s optimistic on Chelsea and has continued to be even by way of the poisonous occasions, has spoken the reality on Robert Sanchez this week.
Who higher to take heed to on the power of a goalkeeper than an skilled one who was fairly good between the sticks throughout his 23-year profession?
I at all times charge what Foster says, I believe he’s very reasonable and balanced. And within the latter finish of his profession, he was additionally an excellent keeper so could be very certified to talk on present goalkeepers within the recreation.
Let’s be trustworthy, Foster will not be the one pundit, fan or journalist who has been persistently saying that Sanchez is simply not ok to be Chelsea primary. However the query is, will the membership lastly realise this and take motion? Fairly merely, they should.
Foster spoke about Robert Sanchez on his YouTube present this week:
“He’s a specimen, he’s an athlete, and he could make a few of the finest saves you will note. However simply a few of the objectives that go in, I simply assume no, like that may’t go in that simply.
“That’s how I choose a goalkeeper in any case, I don’t want to actually have a look at the saves, I would like to have a look at the objectives that go in. May you forestall these objectives getting into? There’s too many already.”
This can be a utterly truthful take, and he’s even complimented Sanchez. It’s not just a few wild and unfair rant like many have put on the market on Sanchez. Some have been a bit too harsh at occasions to be trustworthy.
I’ve at all times stated this myself – Sanchez has had a few class video games in a Chelsea shirt this season; he’s made some terrific saves and has performed nicely. However sadly he has had extra poor video games than good, and he has given away objectives with errors, or pictures that he ought to have saved. That’s his concern, it’s consistency, and it’s lapses of focus and mind farts. That has at all times been his drawback.
I don’t assume anybody ought to doubt whether or not he could make a world class save. After all he can, it’s his job in any case. However the delicate objectives that he allows, as Foster says, outweighs these good moments by rather a lot.
And if Chelsea wish to problem for a title once more, which they do, then they will’t be carrying simply above common gamers in any place on the sphere.
So Chelsea, don’t take heed to me, take heed to the skilled goalkeeper turned pundit who is definitely very balanced and truthful together with his view above!
