I could care less what people say, I thought he looked great in his blue uniform, saved those PKs too
He must have been stoked with that

They normally do me too. However, I enthusiastically joined in last night though as thought it would do Turner the world of good to hear that support for him, he earned his moment last nightI thought he played well last night. Although the chants of USA really do make my p!ss boil.
those chants are pathetic, nobody shouts 'Nigeria' when Niakahte gets the ball or sommatI thought he played well last night. Although the chants of USA really do make my p!ss boil.
In the matchday thread someone said the Trent End were clapping the save - they would have had a pretty good view.
He is a nice guy though.I don't give a toss about all this "he's a nice bloke" bollocks, I don't care if he wins a Nobel prize for obtaining World peace he's still a shit goalkeeper which is all I'm interested in
he makes a significant mistake almost every game, his wrists are weak as piss, he can't kick, he's about as strong as a junior aspirin and he generally just irritates me
hopefully we'll be able to offload him to that pathetic farmers in league in his native country during summer
Felipe's great - did he finish the game injured does anyone know?It was interesting to see Felipe regularly talking to Turner, doing the calming down gestures, reassuring etc. really apparent in first half. Brilliant to have him back, thought he played well, won a lot of headers in our box and attacking from long throws. I think he’s brill-has a presence about him.
I agree with this you need a strong character in goal and a strong character up front and it spreads through the whole team.He is a good shot stopper but the modern keeper needs to be a lot more than that. His kicking isn't great but the biggest problem I have with him is his presence.
He's not commanding and his uncertainty influences the defenders in front of him. You don't want a 'nice bloke' in goal. You want someone the rest of the team doesn't want to upset.
I just dont agree with that, I think Karl Darlow is better than him. I have seen keepers in the champ have much better rounded skillsets. I think he is a liability. His shot stopping has been average, command average, his kicking is obvioulsy very poor not just poor. I dont know an area of his game that he particulary excels? Maybe mentality? He does try and front up once he has made a mistake which is good but we need more than that.I think he had a good game last night.
Assuming we go down he’ll be very good in the Championship. If we stay up he’s a number 2 though.
Would he f*** as like, he'd be shit because he has so many flaws in his gameI think he had a good game last night.

That was me, though I was only watching the brief “highlights” online. I can’t think what else they would be applauding at that time. Maybe LTLF hacked the ”big” screens and put a picture of a squirrel there?In the matchday thread someone said the Trent End were clapping the save - they would have had a pretty good view.
Well, Senegal in his case, but I wholeheartedly agree with the sentimen!those chants are pathetic, nobody shouts 'Nigeria' when Niakahte gets the ball or sommat
Good interview. He comes across as reflective and thoughtful; grounded, but ambitious.Long and refreshingly honest interview with Turner here. Not sure I agree he's been punished for every mistake he's made - I can think of a few he's gotten away with - but comes across as a decent chap who's trying his best. Not sure about his world cup predictions mind, and doubt he'll be here past the summer:

You're welcome. Its interesting how different in tone the US interviews are. Brings out the human side as opposed to our banal 'how did you feel' type affairs.Good interview. He comes across as reflective and thoughtful; grounded, but ambitious.
Thanks for posting.
Just a laugh isn’t it? People are quick to use this excuse when they’re giving players stick on here and elsewhere, surely it’s fair enough to show their support in a light hearted way.They normally do me too. However, I enthusiastically joined in last night though as thought it would do Turner the world of good to hear that support for him, he earned his moment last night
The US has such an incredibly complex and unique place, both in history and the present-day but, generally, I don't think anyone does "emotional intelligence" quite like Americans.You're welcome.

Its not something I'd naturally associate - I shall keep an eye out as it's an interesting take.The US has such an incredibly complex and unique place, both in history and the present-day but, generally, I don't think anyone does "emotional intelligence" quite like Americans.
