| I think Scherpen is a great keeper 16:18 - Sep 12 with 3376 views | Mullet | Or at least has all the tools to be one, but his kicking is so off. Either we adjust our tactics or we give him extra work to do outside of training. Can't go through 30 odd games with so many giveaways unforced. |  |

| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 16:21 - Sep 12 with 2356 views | Nthsuffolkblue | Let's hope he settles down quickly. And let's remember the other keepers on our books are far from perfect and the only way we were likely to sign a keeper that is perfect was by spending half our whole budget on one (and then somehow attracting them too). |  |

| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 16:42 - Sep 12 with 2216 views | londonben | I’m listening not watching, but sounds like both goals were very saveable on top of the poor kicking. Worry that it’s not going to get any better if his confidence is gone. Sounds like he’s just made another shocker that they didn’t punish as I was typing this. |  | |  |

First one deflected off leifs trailing heel putting it past him. Second was weak from Diop but hard to tell if he got down quick enough given it was right across into the corner. Since the OP he’s definitely made a few flaps between doing his job etc |  |

| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 16:51 - Sep 12 with 2003 views | Kropotkin123 | I think he is weak at getting down low and surprisingly slow to get across his goal. Only 4 games in, so hoping you are right. |  |

THat was the problem with Holy, tall but weak to low shots. |  |

It’s not about being nice, certainly looks to me like the step up from Belgium to the prem is telling when you’re facing isak and gakpo et al so soon. The fact teams are targeting greaves and Leif so much suggests theres systematic stuff we need to upgrade too. |  |

Radio Suffolk certainly thought the second was. I look forward to seeing it for myself. |  |

| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 17:06 - Sep 12 with 1773 views | Wheels | Didn't see the first goal but certainly didn't think he was at fault for the 2nd. Need to use his long throw more, well over half way with ease at the final whistle |  | |  |

This. The first was a deflection. The second was a great finish (and I say that through gritted teeth because I detest Strand Larsen). |  | |  |
| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 17:08 - Sep 12 with 1722 views | King_of_Portman_Rd | First was a deflection, but looked like he could have done better Second was a very good finish. Not many keepers would be stopping that The biggest concerns for me were: - misplaced pass straight down the middle - Flapping for a looping cross like his feet were stuck in cement - Not decisive whether to stay or go on the cross that Greaves did well to play off his hip Could really do with a good performance to settle him down as he seemed to be getting in his own head… which is never a great sign. |  | |  |
| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 17:14 - Sep 12 with 1585 views | Blooos | What makes you think he’s a great keeper? Looks absolutely awful in every aspect. Even coming out to claim crosses he flaps. So far looks a shocking signing |  | |  |

Absolute nonsense. |  | |  |
| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 17:24 - Sep 12 with 1458 views | grow_our_own | Mick Mills says Scherpen should have reached the first. Said second wasn't hit hard and again saveable. I think the Liv 1st near post hand-height was an easier save than either of the ones today, but I think most Prem keepers save at least one of those. Let's say we're up to four now: 1. Utd 5th: off his line, didn't get there, lobbed. 2. Liv 1st: near post hand-height. Through his hands. 3. Liv 2nd: Off his line, no-mans-land. 4. One or other of the two goals today was reachable Warnings signs were also there vs Rayo Vallecano pre-season too. We've conceded second most in Prem and nearly half those goals are GK errors. I think GK position has gone backwards since last season. [Post edited 12 Sep 17:27]

Again, he was not at fault for either goal today. The first was a deflection. The second was a superb finish. |  | |  |
| I think Scherpen is a great keeper on 17:33 - Sep 12 with 1380 views | jas0999 | He just needs to settle down a bit. Best keeper at the club in my opinion. I know that’s probably not popular with a lot of folk though! |  | |  |

Mick mills says….i know he is a legend but he’s been notoriously critical and fixated on certain players for a long time. Just quoting his opinion doesn’t add much when you’re denying a fact that the first was deflected so he’d already dived etc We’ve had a great win and still people are being Monday and hyperbolic instead of rational |  |

He can’t kick the ball without putting it in the crowd. So frustrating. |  |
