Great Insight to a goalkeepers life by ex-pro and now Oxford First Team Goalkeeping Coach Wayne Brown:
Absolutely no glory in goalkeeping.
You kick well with both feet. Well this is the new game. You need to be as good as a outfielder.
You kick well but the centre forward can't trap a bag of cement or is scared sh*tless of the centre half. Crap distubution!
You claim crosses, apparently anything in the 6 yard box is the keepers. That's a pretty big box. 18 yard box is even bigger.
Try coming for a cross when your defence won't get up!!!
You save a penalty. It's a bad pen or a nice height for a gk.
You're 6ft. You are too small to be a keeper. (What a load of Sh*te)Iker, Given, Fabien, Shilton and Banks werent bad.
Your confident. Arrogant idiot!
You sweep up. That's what neuer does so you should too!!
You make great saves. Well that's what you're there for!!!
You make a point blank reaction save. It just hit him!
You take one in the face to keep it out the net. He's bloody stupid.
You palm a 90mph rocket with dip & movement into a good area. Fecking catch it!!!!
It takes a deflection. You were on your heels.
You punch. Catch it!!!
You try and catch. Just punch it!
You punch with 2 fists. Surely you can catch it.
You're 1st in & last out of training! You work your nuts off every day. Patter cake patter cake. You to me, me to you!
You take abuse from home and away fans. Actually we enjoy that!
You make good saves, make good decisions, kick well and keep a clean sheet & you feel great about yourself.
THE KEEPER HAD NOTHING TO DO!!!!!!!!!
! 6/10 in the sun!
