Looks like Scherpen is the new scape goat 16:51 - Sep 7 with 3167 viewsBelsteadCav

The stick I’ve seen him getting on social media is unbelievable.

We’ve played Man U and Liverpool back to back but people are already claiming he’s worse than Muric. Footballers look at social media. This isn’t helping at all.

King of the board since 98

Scherpen is 26 with over 200 games under his belt including Champions League games.


Probably why he was the one chosen to stay and the other go out on loan.

But that's still young by goalkeeping standards. Asmir Begovic has just said on SSN that he is "young and the improvement in decision making will come".

You can't play two keepers, sadly.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

It's difficult to watch a performance like that and then watch Arsenal's David Raya a couple of days later owning his box and pulling off a series of world class saves.
I know he's tall, but his general mobility and positional sense seems non-existent.


What a ridiculous comparative... compared against arguably the best keeper in the World, with arguably the leagues best defence in front of him at a team he joined more than 5 weeks ago.... I hope this was tongue in cheek??

I find it nuts we loaned KVO out. I know a couple of people that watch a lot of Dutch football and they say he is the real deal. They are really surprised we seem to rate Scherpen more highly than him. Seems daft to me we have sent him out when our alternatives are two keepers we know are bang average Championship standard. We really need Scherpen to perform - hopefully he does.


Although he is currently only bench warming which is a shame.... Saw him pre-season he did look excellent especially his distribution, but he didnt have that many 'decisions' to make and we were not playing Liverpool!

Whatever it was was more probably beak up arse.

Good work by Philogene...... GREAT WORK BY PHILOGENE!!!

Issue is many of these idiots will only be happy when he absolutely fails... They would not consider getting behind him and giving him a chance to prove himself, how boring would that be for them? I keep saying it but you only have to look at where Muric is now, he must have been delighted to escape!

I think people also need to think back and remind themselves of David De Gea's first season in goal for Man Utd, it's not abnormal for a keeper to take time to settle into playing in a new country and with a new defence. Even a goalkeeper with a world class defence in front of him can look crap at times. Unfortunately for a goalie their mistakes are a lot more visible than a strikers mistake.

Our xG was higher than Liverpool's so you could equally blame our attack and their finishing or you could be rational and hold you hands up and say it was Liverpool, lets move on and get behind the team (including the goalie).

You're so right. However, some of the moaners at least gave Muric a dozen or so games before turning on him. Some of the current idiots have the knives out for Scherpen after only 3 games.

Idiots, idiots, idiots.
