I don't mind if he flaps occasionally now, he'll get it right in future and it demonstrates his aggression and confidence commanding his area.

8 clean sheets is indeed brilliant. Especially after his first game where he was clearly nervous. He was a bit lucky on saturday but a lucky goalkeeper is a good goalkeeper

Not the best of mindsets. Better the keeper have it than any other player, but...

Outstanding start to his career for us mind. Long may it continue. To think that had we got the experienced keeper we wanted at the start of the season, he might not have had the opportunity to show how good he is.

I love Migno

I like Gordon but the defence seems more organised with Ming. Two excellent keepers at the club
