He won us a point today with that save from Westwood's mistake.

Silly us for being positive about something...
He made a save and did it well by covering his angles and coming out to make it difficult for the profligate Newcastle back stick players. Yes, he did do it well and should be commended for it. But he also could be chided for an atrocious kick from the hands that went almost along the deck to half-way. if a Newcastle player had have got it before then we would ahve been in trouble. Its the good and the bad of Guzan that needs to be addressed personally.
G Brad Guzan, 6.5 - Wasn't asked to do anything spectacular, but was sharp in his decision-making and made the saves he was asked to make.
G Nick Rimando, 9 - Was sharp in all phases, but especially his shot stopping. Did well to deny Krejci from close range in the 60th minute as well as Darida five minutes later. Capped off his night by getting a piece of Kolar's effort.
With Everton having a dodgy start defenivsly maybe Guzan can claim that number one from Howard.
Guzan has been completely at fault for 2 of the last 3 goals we have conceded and needs to take a share of the responsibility for Burnley's equaliser. He threw one in against Everton not too long back. I like Brad as a keeper, with the exception being his use of the ball, but his form is a bit dicey at the moment.Given by all accounts was superb on loan at Middlesboro last season. Given at his best though wouldnt be coming off his line as much as Guzan does.Should we stick with Brad or give Shay another chance?
When we first signed Shay it looked a good move
