Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Between Fab & Rice for HOTY. Been a superb buy, not been this confident in a keeper since Parkes & Ludo. Bargain at 7 million.

I’d have him over Allison 100%. Saying that, I don’t think I’d feel as confident with any other keeper in the league as I do with Fab. He’s that good.Marky wrote:3rd best goalie in the league behind DDG and Allison

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Other keepers have had their spells - James when he arrived, Green in the great escape season and Adrian when we were pushing for a CL place 4 seasons ago.romfordneil wrote:...not been this confident in a keeper since Parkes & Ludo.
But I agree - Fabianski was excellent for Swansea and promises to go on whereas the others didn’t.

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Not sure i'd swap him for any other keeper in the Prem. Maybe De Gea but that would be it. Most important signing we made in the summer.
Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
I wasn't happy we signed him but been overwhelmed by how good he has been, last few seasons Adrian could have some complaints about not starting, this season he can have none

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
I'm not ashamed to admit that I just thought he'd provide a decent bit of competition for Adrian... I've been very pleasantly surprised by just how good he is though.
I don't think we can really talk in terms of him being up there with Ludo or Parks just yet and age may be against him going on long enough for us to make that comparison.
He is certainly chasing the likes of Hislop, Green and James already though. A top quality keeper.
HOTY for me with Rice getting the youngster award.

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
I find it interesting that we're still incredibly leaky at the back yet a lot of people will cite Fabianski, Balbuena & Diop as good to great buys and see Rice as a possible HOTY.
Not saying we're wrong, guess it just shows how bad a position Pellegrini was starting from at that end of the pitch!!

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
I think the loss of fitness / form in Cresswell has been huge in terms of our defence too as we have been far too exposed down the left.
Can only have been a handful of games that we have been able to start with a fully fit back six of;
---------------- Fabianski ---------------
Zabeleta Balbuena Diop Cresswell
------------------- Rice -------------------

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
When a cross comes into the box......and you see Fabianski coming for it. You can just look away knowing everything is safe.
I wouldn't swap him for many other keepers.
Watch the dropped crosses happen now...

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Few keepers would have saved that first minute effort. He stayed still and said to Babel , 'And?'.
So many keepers wave and flap, charge out and make the striker's mind up for him.

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Have to hold my hands up and say I wasnt sure about him when he first came in, didnt think he would be much of an upgrade on Adrian, glad how wrong I was.

Is "Geezer" a common word in Polish?

Re: Lukasz Fabianski signs
Dont wanna jinx him, but im amazed how the ball sticks to him when he saves it. 1st keeper i saw was Parkes. Fab isnt far behind him
