So, you can't name any other mistakes he's made and can't answer why VDS threw the ball in the net twice against Fulham.

It's ok, just let me know earlier in future so we don't have to dance round the table all day.

:wink:

I don't tend to watch the mid-table teams that much unless we're playing them. When did he throw the ball in the net twice? Late reaction saves which he didn't have a lot of time for. or are you just imagining things again?

Boys, boys! Reina made a bad mistake and had a generally poor 45 minutes, but it's over.
So now maybe he'll be Spain's Nº3 instead of Nº2. Let it go :)

It will be laughable if Valdes gets ahead of him. Valdes is Barca's poorest first choice player, by far.

Didn't see much Spanish football last year then?

Didn't actually see as much as I used to, but still seen enough to know Valdes is some way off Reina. Furthermore, I think it's harder to be a goalkeeper in England than Spain, I think our league is much more 'challenging' for goalkeepers, which naturally makes me regard Reina's performances a lot higher.

Still, even then, if Barca could afford to lose one player that they wouldn't miss at all, it would obviously be Valdes, as he is just 'decent'.

Would this be your view if you weren't a Liverpool fan?

I struggle to understand what you're trying to achieve? If you're asking me to post without bias, then, it's kinda hard when describing Liverpool players, but I don't think what I say is biased. I think if I wasn't a Liverpool fan and I watched Reina a lot, watched him sceptically and understood/appreciated his strengths, then I'd easily come to the conclusion that Reina is a far better goalkeeper than Valdes. Although it's hard for goalkeepers to be 'far better', as you rarely see all of their attributes consistently, having watched both players for years (Reina every week for the past 4 years, Valdes quite a bit for about 5/6 years), I can safely say I've formed a pretty strong conclusion that Reina is better.

Not trying to achieve anything. Was asking a simple question. We all know that club loyalties can take hold. As good a keeper as I think Reina is, I do think Valdes is better.

And I'm sure you believe Chris Kirkland is better than both. Club bias and all that. ;)
