Pilko Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Decisive as fuck claiming every high ball (apart from one slight rick he got away with) and made the regulation save he had to. The confidence he gives the back four is invaluable. He's a very good keeper and it's mental he's been fannying around in the Eastern League for so many years.

Infinitely Content Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 How good must Prague's other goalkeeper be to have kept Dubravka out to the point of letting him leave is what I want to know. Absolutely love the guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnMag Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Imagine if we had Dubravka in squad from day 1. How many more points could we have now, 10-15? Hopefully NUFC has option to buy, quality keeper with right attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Thing is, he's probably just an average Premier League level keeper but it's been 4-5 years since we've had a keeper (peak Krul) even at that level, it's like we're being spoiled.

Ikon Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He makes me feel so much more calm when the opposition put balls in the box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Average to me is mid-table level. If he turns out top 6-7 standard then fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 It's too early to cast a thorough judgement over him but the signs are very promising. He's looked fine/strong in every department so far; shot-stopping, communication, footwork, handling... You're made to wonder if there's a catch () somewhere, given how he capable he looks. He's not a youngster and Liberec and Sparta Prague are hardly unknowns... decent goalies are a commodity in the Premier League so you wonder why no one's snapped him up before now. But, needless to say; really high hopes for the lad and a permanent signing seems like a no-brainer at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Also I'd wager that he's a really good goalie because he can hear the shots coming before the striker's even kicked the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Anyone got a video of his dodgy throw? What's class as an average keeper these days? Obviously De Gea is the top stopper in the league but he seems to have excellent all-round ability to succeed at this level. I love how he orders the defence around and commands his area really well, that's something what stopped Given being world class and joining a bigger team when we started to decline.

Tiresias Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Favourite thing that de gea does that would be infuriating for a worse keeper is how often hedoesn't move and lets shots fly very narrowly wide as if he's much more sure it's off target than anyone else in stadium Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I've seen nothing about his game that worries me. Given Pickfords fee, he will be a bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heake Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 The only real save of note that he made was when he pushed an effirt wide when our previous incumbents would have more than likely spilled it to the centre forward for a tap in. This guy rocks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinitely Content Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I've seen nothing about his game that worries me. Given Pickfords fee, he will be a bargain. Granted Pickford is fairly young and looks a real prospect, from what I've seen of the two Dubravka looks more assured and complete as a goalkeeper (albeit it's still early days) where as Pickford has much learning still to do. If we can really sign him for 4 million or so, it's an unbelievable deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 The lads made a cracking start to his spell with us. Long may it continue. he seems to be enjoying his stint here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not that many good keepers in the Premier, Arsenal struggled to find a decent one for a long time. Even Liverpool have been making do with mediocre Mignolet.

LRD Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Early days but the 4 or 5m it would take to sign him is peanuts in this financial climate. Goalkeepers could also play well into their 30s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
