If he's given his word he'll sign that's good enough for me.

Told yas he'd sign.

Obviously a very respectful lad.

Arriving late - very disrespectful

FINALLY

Official Facebook has him down as in the squad for the derby.

I hope he got an upgrade when they changed the date on his ticket as well after last nights shenanigans!

How he managed to pass that English test is beyond me 😉🇯🇵

Leedsy2 · 02/1/2016 8:53 pm

Today was only his first game, and under dodgy circumstances at that, but I have to admit I wasn't greatly impressed by him, especially when he flogged their first goal. But it's early days and we can only hope for improvement.

Mass Debates · 02/1/2016 9:04 pm

Need to give the boy a chance was under major pressure at every set play and the conditions were not ideal for him. Mind he has not trained with the team either. His kicking was pretty good throughout and it was a good save near the end too. He'll do me compared to the bollocks before him

Tangy · 02/1/2016 9:10 pm

First goal aside, he didn't have too much to do, to judge him on.

The first, it looked like it came off the back of his hand.

Otherwise, he was out sharpish when gunning had his terrible pass back. He saved well when dillon decided his legs were made of jelly when challenging mcgowan and aside from the deflection had that shot covered...

Would any of our 3 other keepers have managed all of that? I doubt it - so an improvement!

P's he can also throw forward, rather than to the side!!!

bowers · 02/1/2016 9:29 pm

One error that sadly led to them equalising.
Didnt have much to do as said above. They did seem put balls in right ontop of him.

Tangerine_Ultra · 02/1/2016 9:29 pm

Honestly folk questioning him after one game? Jesus fuck.

Tek · 02/1/2016 9:34 pm

The mistake for their 1st goal apart i thought he looked really good tbh.

I'm hoping his mistake was a one-off rather than the regular howlers we've been used to with Dusan,Rado,Zwick,Szromnik.

Just you keep on singing, mate. coz your reading isn't much cop. I wasn't questioning him, but stating an opinion based on what I saw. Mind you, I am awaiting surgery on cataracts!

Dundee were expecting Szromnik in the sticks and had been working on set pieces. Basically, abody on the keeper. Crowd him out and stick a ball right on top. Any keeper would struggle with that.

It probably was, Tek. Doesn't alter the fact it helped cost us the game, though. Not the most auspicious of starts.

Arab_plumber · 02/1/2016 9:58 pm

He did flog the goal but he looked very assured apart from that

He should be solid for us

TangerineDream · 02/1/2016 10:03 pm

Apart from the mistake I thought he did alright.

Think he will be a massive improvement when up to speed. At least it looks like we have finally stopped this feking about at the back, goalie throw out, no kicking pish. That was pure muppetry.

TheShed · 02/1/2016 10:04 pm

He looked generally good, with all the hype and delays, that was always coming today. Pretty sure he'll be good for us.

bowers · 02/1/2016 10:14 pm

Eh reckon kawashima we 2 broken wrists woukd be better than them 2 fucking nuggets wev had in goal since august.

SuperMario · 02/1/2016 10:24 pm

Tbh yeah he made a mistake but the save in the second half was worth a goal absolutely superb save
