Bob Loblaw Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 His double save was tremendous, but I'm almost certain it wouldn't have counted anyway due to a handball. Not that he was to know obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybalfour Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Vert disappointing if he doesn't go straight in to the Scotland No.1 spot with what we have seen so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozi Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 If Craig Gordon comes back from this horrible injury he might find not only the Hearts No1 in his way but the Scotland No1 too. The double save against Hibs was unbelievable, today's was just as good, if we hadn't been spoiled with Gordon's undoubted brilliance the last couple of years we would probably be waxing lyrical about how good Zander has been Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemclaren Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I must admit , when he signed I thought he was too good to be back up. Then when Craig got injured I wondered if Zander was going to be good enough. So far he's done brilliantly imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 2 clean sheets in 4 games (St Johnstone, Hibs and 2 x St Mirren) for Zander. Crazily in the 26 games Craig started for us this season (17 League, 1 League Cup and 8 in Europe) he only had 2 clean sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazily in the 26 games Craig started for us this season (17 League, 1 League Cup and 8 in Europe) he only had 2 clean sheets. I think we have tightened up our back line since Craig went off. I did wonder if the back three almost got a bit complacent at times due to believing that Craig was the superman he is. Anyway, Zander is doing a great job and the double save yesterday was immense. I'm not to sure about boxing the ball out instead of catching it. However, that's just because I'm old fashioned like that. Zander is rocking it!

loveofthegame Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I thought he was good when he was at St Johnstone. I don’t think I appreciated how good he is. Big, good shot stopper, commanding from crosses and decent distribution. An excellent keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettigrewsstylist Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Solid, reliable and dependable start, including coming for balls. Great enhancement to squad. Real depth for CG at time of signing. Feels a safe pair of hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlimOzturk Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 He is a actually a very different goalie from Craig which is very interesting. He is far more animated, comes out for more cross balls, his distribution is much quicker as well and making saves seem life or death at times. Get pumped up after making them like a lot of keepers do. Gordon has always been incredibly laid back, takes his time when releasing the ball, prefers to stay on his line for crosses and when making saves makes it look effortless. Going to be tough decisions to make once Gordon gets back to full fitness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxy Hearts Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 It's hard to believe we couldn't keep clean sheets at times with the legendary Craig Gordon.
