Aussies abroad 🌍🦘

Tapp has just been announced as leaving for JDT in Malaysia.
JDT have won every league title since 2014 (12 titles in a row) and never really have any competition in the MSL (they haven’t even lost a single league game since 2021). The last other team to win the title was Lions XII which was a Singaporean youth team that won it in 2013. They dissolved in December 2015.

You’d think with an extra player on the pitch they might do a bit better…
 
Big call to say he is better than ryan!
My tongue has pierced my cheek. After a brief honeymoon period Ryan again has put himself way ahead. Not without fault but with hundreds of goals going in every weekend, we're too harsh on keepers and not complimentary enough of scorers.

Imagine if we went as hard on outfield players for their misses in games. Trouble is, goals are costly and humans are motivated by loss over gain.

We are yet to have a good world cup for a keeper

Schwarzer at fault against japan and braxil but brilliant against italy. Kalic at fault v croatia

Schwarzer at fault v germany and serbia but good against ghana

Ryan apparently the statistically worst shot stopper in 2014

2018 i dont remember? Did ryan play well?

2022 was good until the mistake against the argies from ryan

To be fair keepers are heavily scrutinised week in, week out because football is a game of such fine margins where mistakes can mean the difference between winning the league or getting relegated, and of course clubs value clean sheets as much as score involvements from outfield players.

People go too hard on keepers when the clowns in front allowing the scoring opportunities need to be scrutinised too.
