R5 aired an interview that Pat Murphy did with Brad this afternoon. I thought Brad came across as sensible, mature, and despite Pat Murphy's best efforts to get him to be critical of team mates, he wasn't.

I don't buy into that journalists must be like fans thing for a nanosecond, it isn't their job, but Pat Murphy really strikes me as a bitter fucker these days.

Ah, another of my favourite's, Pat Murphy. You don't need to know who scored when he is the bloke R5 have sent to an Albion match. You just have to hear the tone of voice in his opening few words to realise...

Brad didn't get in the PFA team of the year then.Must be who he plays for.

Probably. It's hardly a big surprise that people think that the best players this season are the ones who are towards the top of the league.

That's why they're top of the league.

If De Gea has had a better season than Guzan then my Arsehole is a font of inspiration for Coco Chanel.

I think Brads fantastic, best in the prem for me
but when you've picked the ball out of your own net 63 times this season it isn't hard to understand that others who haven't seen him quite so often don't think he's anything special

Particularly when the voting was doing not so long after we'd conceded eight to Chelsea, four to Spurs and three to Wigan.

Although we haven't kept a clean sheet since then either!
I think Guzan has been outstanding this season and cant really recall any huge changers he has made - i cannot say the same for De Gea.

Bad error today, wrong call to charge out and try to claim the cross in the 93rd minute, no idea how Holt didn't just head it in.

I think given his outstanding performances he probably earnt that header just going wide of the post.

I'd hate for him to hold back because of that. He's always decisive and reacts quickly so at some point, much like James, he'll make an error or two (not as many as Captain). But yeah, he earned that bit of luck with the header going wide.

I said I didn't rated that highly at the start of the season. And its taken Guzan until the 93rd minute in early May to finally prove me right. phew.

He's been poor for a few weeks now. Seems to make an error in very game.

I rate him and he's good enough to be our number 1 at the minute, but he's not the level some have been making out IMO.

Guzan best in prem and was voted save of season by post nevin match of day 2. It was an amazing reach and agility to keep out samba header!
De gea, mingolet and Cech were mooted as the best keepers this season. That's unfair to guzan as he has been immense
