Flappy could have done better, but he must of thought it would have been a routine catch, his problem is that he isnt a tall strong keeper, so dealing with crosses would be harder for him if he is challenged
He is built like a brick shithouse mate...One of the best built keepers in the Prem after Friedel, all the rest are beanpoles.
He didn't give as good as he got from Carroll, simple as.
After the goal there was a similar situation, and IMO a harder catch that he threw his weight into and got, in fact several times after.
I am not going to blame him for conceding simply because i think it was a defensive mistake before it was his, why wasn't anyone on the posts? Where were Squid and Koscielny?
He was caught in two minds because of the defence he had in front of him.
I didn't think it was a "Tame" header myself, it was a strong header and had Fabianski not done ANYTHING Carroll would have made a serious connection with the ball, and with no one on the posts and Squill and Kos AWOL i think it would have been a certain goal anyway.
He could have done better and been more decisive but its difficult with a defence like ours in front of you.
What he doesn't need is more knives in his back but my words are futile right now, simply because everyone and their dog is saying it was a massive howler, how he should be strung up and how he should never of been given a chance in goal.
LOL! f***ing BOLLOCKS!
People were waiting for an excuse to get back on him and it shows how disgracefully fickle some of our fans are.
And no statman bullshit is going to hide the fact that the majority of noise today was made by a handful of Geordies and most of the noise from the Library was to simply show disdain and not to get behind the team.
Its the reason i don't go to the Emirates anymore, no matter how many people go their to passionately support the club most of us love, at least double will be "Pink hats" spawn, *Spits*
my dog and i are 100 percent behind fabianski and it was quiet today but not where i was sitting.
i will never give up my arsenal its my job to get behind the team..i did my job
