In the Blackpool vs Arsenal match yesterday, Lehmann was the goalkeeper and no reserve goalkeeper was named on the bench. Had he been sent off for his foul on DJ Campbell, it was said (I heard on the grapevine that is twitter) that Van Persie would have bunged on the goalie’s shirt and gone in goal for him (it’s currently joked in the GU Football Weekly podcast who else in the squad would have had the height to do so, Fernando Duarte asking “Nasri on Fabregas’ shoulders?!” lol)
So inspired by that, I thought we should all do a collective pitch of memories of outfield players in goal. The most prominent memory I have is Reading vs Chelsea when those evil ****s injured both Petr Cech and Carlo Cudicini, and JT heroically went in goal and saw us through to a 1-0 win.
(Check the re-jiggling out... Drogba playing at CB (which tbf he'd excel at.)
I also remember Phil Jagielka pretty much *excelling* as an emergency goalie, especially in Sheffield Utd vs Arsenal when he made a cracking save from Van Persie to secure Sheffield Utd a 1-0 win. He really can play in practically every position, amazing man!
How about you, bbs? Feel free to spam pics of your team's players goofing around in goal (like the above one of Ash). Also, in the event of your first choice and second choice goalies both getting injured, which outfield player would you nominate to go in goal?
