more DDG analysis.

DDG is the opposite of Van Der Sar

VDS was always calm. DDG nervous.

VDS was practically 10/10 with goal-keeping fundamentals. DDG has several technical holes in his game (coming off his line, not commanding his area, poor at punching the ball, weak, poor kicking).

VDS was unspectacular. DDG is master of the spectacular save.

VDS was a steady 7 - 8 game in, game out. DDG's performance fluctuates from low to (seldom these days) GOAT class.

VDS was highly concentrated throughout despite not having much to do in a game. DDG can lose focus and can be caught off guard.

VDS could play with his feet when required. DDG cannot.

VDS was elite under pressure. DDG lets pressure get to him.

VDS commanded his area. DDG has no presence.

VDS could save penalties. DDG can barely save any.

VDS had elite mentality. DDG hides / shows cowardice.

VDS rarely made unforced errors. DDG makes too many.

VDS was unspectacular but overall a better keeper. VDS didn't have the gifts of Schmeichel but his fundamentals and reliability mean that comparisons between the two are valid.

DDG's time is up.

Bowing out in the quarter-finals just like the professionals, getting knocked by a nonexistent country, couldn't even make it out this bracket

You gotta be kidding me with the constant long balls in the box in the last twenty minutes, no one time passing, no possession football…looking like Tite ball passed down

Fergie would have won this game and found a way to compete for Prem titles and Champions League with these players.


I smell fraud
He got rid of Ronaldo and everyone thought he was GOAT. Fraud will get exposed once klopp retools and pooch gets control of Chelsea
