NLTFTh Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 15 hours ago, jamboinglasgow said: 100% this, He did make mistakes in his time at Hearts but was decent (the problem for him is he came in after we had a season of McLaughlin who was great so make any negative side of the next keeper look greater, similar to any goalkeeper after we Gordon left.) If Zlamel had been our main keeper that season we would not have been at the bottom. I remember the home game against Kilmarnock after we had gone on a run of picking up points, we went 3-0 down and every goal could easily be blamed on Pereira (the pick of the bunch was the 2nd Killie goal when he ran out to the edge of the box to stop the player with ball despite a defender on them who was able to kick it into the net.) We battled back after that and got two goals and almost equalised but the damage was done. Zlamel was a decent GK, Unfortunately you only are ever remembered for your mistakes or brain farts. Wish he'd been my GK coach when I played as his warm ups were 2nd to none.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bindy Badgy Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I used to think I wouldn't see a performance as bad as Kuskis against Inverness. Then I saw Pereira. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upgotheheads Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I was at that game, I don't even think that was his worst performance, and I'm not sure Zander looked that good either on the day. Cracking goal from Sean Clare though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dsjambo Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I can go back to Kenny Garland, who I blame to this day for 0-7, Thomson Allan, Craig Nelson, Ray Dunlop but this guy was the worst I’ve ever seen. Two factors in our relegation where Levein not only signing this clown but building him up to be the 2nd coming and Stendel playing him in so many games. He hardly made any saves, almost every shot on target was a goal. Absolutely shocking signing by CL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Jambo Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 1 hour ago, Luckies1874 said: He made his League debut for Reading last night........it didn't go well Unbelievable! At 13 seconds he make an actual save. It was a result of an atrocious kick out, but all the same. Sitting down for the first goal is just such classic Pereira. The Derby keeper doesn't look good at the goal he conceded either. Unbelievable that this is the standard of keeping in that league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two gifted goals, entirely his fault. 1 hour ago, leginten said: I mean, the penalty he gives away for the second goal is obviously ridiculous, but WTAF is he doing on his backside long before the striker has shot for the first? A terrible, terrible goalkeeper. How the hell are clubs stupid enough to take him on? Eerily similar to one in the Killie game posted above. You think, look, he's in decent position, the shot is going straight at him and . . . he just kind of sinks to his knees and the shot goes over him. And then he throws up his hands in frustration as if someone should have done something about that. I guess recruitment specialists look at his play with his feet and his height and the length of his arms and think, it can't be THAT hard to teach him the basics of stopping shots . . .

Benny Klack Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Was pretty excited when he arrived but dearie me he was sh1te. Kurskis was worse IMO though.

His confidence is well shot. Aye you might be on to something there. I mean, his inability to save even the most straightforward shots shouldn’t be held against him. Plus his save percentage of 55% (meaning almost every 2nd shot on target was a goal) which was by far the worst in the league, didn’t make him a bad ‘keeper. Just misunderstood imo.

The 1994 League Cup game when we lost 2-4 to them at Tynecastle and Nicky Walker had an absolute shocker. Was also the infamous game when Tommy Harrison was subbed on and off again by Hamster coupon. Nicky Walker was more bothered about how his hair looked in games than actually making saves! Edited March 14 by Lambo85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that squad wasn’t great by any means but it had absolutely no business going down. Him being as bad as he was had a negative effect on everything. The defenders couldn’t trust him so they were either hoofing it up or just keeping it at the back, very rarely did they try to play out or drive the ball forward, then they’d overthink it and make a mistake and that lack of confidence seeped right through the team with the midfield constantly too deep and nobody wanting to take responsibility, then a huge gap between the midfield & forwards. Had we had someone like CG in goals we’d have seen better from every player imo. Even Zlamal would have improved us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTJ Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Kenny Garland was much better (despite one particular nightmare appearance). Kenny had a shutout at Ibrox once, after all. Brian Wilson was desperately bad (worse than Ray Dunlop) but managed an occasional decent performance. Pereira actually was in goal for our 1-0 Cup win over Rangers BUT Ryan Kent must have blasted half-a-dozen chances over the bar. If he'd just hit the ball softly on target he'd have scored four or five 🙃 I'm sure Joel's dad is a friend of Mourinho and that's why MU signed him.....

Chillidigits Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Hearts should offer him a testimonial in recognition of his sterling service to the club. I cannot imagine a sellout crowd not being entertained. Even the warm up prior to kick off would be compulsive viewing. And have it in August when the festival's on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
