well for 3 years now Rio has been moaning at VDS and asking why he never opens is mouth and tells him what's going on. For a keeper that is meant to be world class the fact that he never tells anyone just isn't good enough,. neither is the fact that he hasn't learnt to tell Rio either. At the level we are at this sort of thing happening twice isn't good enough. As it's gone on for 3 years I can't see this changing. Sure Rio isn't the brightest bloke in the world but he's still a decent defender.
VDS stands there on the goal line watching the whole game FFS surely he can see what is happening and tell others, that's meant to be part of a keepers job.
As you said he doesn't have a good command of his area as he no longer knows when to come of his line and when not to.. he starts to come . stops and then does neither.
When Chelsea had a free kick and put the ball in the box and missed Malouda's head by an inch he hadn't even moved.
i think part of the problem with United fans as that they don't always know alot about football, they see the list of trophies some of these players have won, or they they scored or made a save and assume they must have been brilliant.
