Anyone concerned about Steven Benda ? 17:43 - Aug 28 with 1438 viewsKeithHaynes

Was at fault for possibly two goals, played extremely well at times then like a donkey.
No consistency for me.

Bit harsh in my eyes. Today was his only dodgy goalkeeping performance so far in terms of stopping the ball going into the net.

He has struggled at times in the other games with the opposition's press etc but he's been told to play that way so I don't put much blame on him for those errors.

Poll: Rate the ref's performance today

Yes I don’t think he’s very good, in fact I’d go as far as he looks calamitous

Been spoilt with decent keepers in my time watching the Swans with the exception of the last couple of seasons.

For a 22 year old with very little first team experience, I think he is doing a great job.

I think a more experienced keeper who also has experience playing for a team that play out from the back would strengthen us, but I feel far more concerned about other positions on the pitch.

He's young, and you don't build consistency catching splinters for a year.

Not the only one who lost his head and made mistakes today. Good saves in the first half.

A little bit.

That’s two catastrophic decisions in five games after the Blackburn penalty. He could have been sent off today and should have stopped the free kick. Lost the ball in a similar way to Blackburn in the Sheffield United game, but recovered and I think forced a goal kick. Even in the Bristol city game he played two loose passes to them in our final third.

Having said that, there are a lot of positives. His shot stopping is good, he commands his area, he’s brave and aggressive. His distribution is pretty good, it just needs to be near perfect if you’re a keeper being asked to pass between strikers. He probably hasn’t had to do that very much until now.

I do prefer him to Woodman, who I also liked, but he’s far from perfect.

First season with us as a regular, in a new formation and style, sometimes a goalkeepers performance depends on what's around him.

He had zero chance with the first two goals which happened right under my nose. Both into the corner.

#They were caused by us farking around at the back and losing possession.


Benda is ok

Poll: Christmas. Enjoyable or not

My apologies for the Mule reference, it’s eeawful. I do think some of the more pro Benda posts are pretty accurate. Ish.

I take it that you never saw Derek Bellotti or Steve Potter then?

No about 1983 on & as I said I have been lucky we have had some very good keepers in that time.

Did you see Ederson earlier for Man City ? Team that plays out from the back. Is Ederson also a dodgy keeper ?

Fair play good answers, and don't forget the save from a shot plus he really did well on the one on one
He's young gonna make some mistakes but I think he's OK
Woodman last year for me cost us lots

No but Benda is.

You carry on and bury your head in the sand.

Benda is not good enough.
