Tommy Wiseau Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 He is. None of them were difficult at all! Is he **** Lawson. He's come off the back of two outstanding league performances where his defence have been peerless. And he is the master of psychology in penalties. His presence was a major factor in the 3 misses.

I think the major factor was that Uruguay, wasteful during the match, remained wasteful during the shoot-out. There's something wrong with this side's mentality right now: the ruthlessness has gone. You'd expect any goalkeeper in the world to save those pens, all of which were struck appallingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Buffon should be Italy number one as long as he is Juve's number one. I personally think he is starting to decline and it's only a matter of time before he will have to call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Wiseau Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I know you don't watch much football, Lawson, but surely you are not basing this opinion of Buffon on a couple of matches in an end of season diddy tournament ffs? Nah, nothing to do with his form for club and country over the last 18 years, it's because he has slick back hair and I have a man crush on him (well, it is a little bit, but that's not the point) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, nothing to do with his form for club and country over the last 18 years, it's because he has slick back hair and I have a man crush on him (well, it is a little bit, but that's not the point) I hadn't seen it until this tournament, tbf. But defensively, Italy's record has been ropey for some considerable time now: I thought it was down to Prandelli's approach more than anything, but I'm not so sure now. You know how it works with ageing keepers though. They can still make instinctive reflex saves, as he did again today - but they just start getting more erratic when you don't expect it. Might be a concentration thing as much as anything else. But do I think Buffon's "presence" was the reason Uruguay produced three penalties which were borderline backpasses? Not for a moment. Their confidence isn't what it should be, and they're too satisfied with just holding their own against big name opponents. Not beating them.

Debut 4 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Always had a soft spot for Italy. I never saw any of the third place play off but recently they`ve been refreshing to watch.......a good attacking side who aren`t far away from winning another major tournament. Funny thing is and has been pointed out by many, uncharacteristically they look slack at the back sometimes as a unit yet individually i think they have very good defenders. If you could transport some of their defences of yesteryear into the current side you have world champions!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

:shitwine: Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Lawson thinks Neville Southall is one of the greatest keepers to have played the game. With Lawson's logic that Buffon is only loved for his slick hair and all that, I assume Lawson's preference is how round the keeper is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego10 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Lawson thinks Neville Southall is one of the greatest keepers to have played the game. Southall was a world class keeper and definitely the best British keeper of the last 40 years imo. Lawson might slaver a lot but he's no always wrong.
