People that talk a lot about how to get rich, but they don't own a thing and are broke themselves. Seems to be a lot of that going on here. A lot of players that have probably never even competed at a college/university/provincial teams level or even Div. 1/2 men's at any position or people that have never played in goal to understand how the position is played that talk all this #$%& about other players as if they are some kind of authority. Example: The guy talking about how most of the shots are shot right at Noor. Have you ever considered that maybe Noor is just good at angles and positioning? Diving should be a last resort and GK's are often put in that position because they are at a poor angle or have made some other mistake. Also, trash talking about size? There are plenty of decent GK's that do just fine that are shorter. Nestor Siquenza when he still played seemed to cover the goal ok? Guys like Jorge Campos played in World Cups for the Mexico National team and he was 5'6". Federico Valentini was 5'5" and played for San Marino for a long time. Surely they had someone taller than that that could play? Being tall doesn't make you a good goalkeeper. Look at Joseph Otitoju. He's fairly big but couldn't catch a cold and is awful.<br /><br />I haven't seen Noor play much so I have no clue if he is good or bad, but I would assume he's far from the worst GK in the tournament. And the guy has won the tournament. Something 99% of the current players have never done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2057172811780038014.post-55726271273645474102013-03-15T10:01:29.503-07:002013-03-15T10:01:29.503-07:00Can't believe you're going to spend anothe...Can't believe you're going to spend another 45 minutes refreshing this page to see if anyone responds to you.LeeMooney10https://www.blogger.com/profile/06591184655022366357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2057172811780038014.post-38727146425113947812013-03-14T22:36:45.111-07:002013-03-14T22:36:45.111-07:00List of Keepers THAT BLOW BIG CHUNKS AND WILL MAKE...List of Keepers THAT BLOW BIG CHUNKS AND WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF - BLOOPER REEL -<br /><br />1.

If you can't distribute the ball properly and you have weak distribution skills there is no point in being a goal keeper. His throws were just plain bad last year. Maybe you need to lift some weights and practice some technique.<br /><br />2. If someone is taking your goal kicks, you are clearly not capable of properly kicking the ball. You also have to keep in mind that you are drawing out one of your defenders and you have one less option to pass to. Very easy to figure out and adjust to.<br /><br />3. Noor size and height. He clearly lacks the size and height to make the great saves you see from other goal keepers. He short and most players try to chip it over him or shoot high.<br /><br />These are just a few things I noticed.<br /><br />So many better goal keepers than Noor. <br /><br />Keep putting your buddies on the list Mike, it causes less issues. So many people get all over excited and get their panties in a knot over silly little things. Give me a break and settle down. CHILL OUT.<br /><br />My prediction ...

You first...I don't really get your point Noor. You first say it's not luck, then say you aren't good, then say you have to be good to be lucky. So are you good, or not? And are you lucky, or not? And what are you complaining about? Collins put you on his top 5, even though there are obviously over 5 keepers in the tournament that like you admit, are better than you technically. I watched a bit of Sudan's games last year and you would have to admit that you were lucky to make some of the saves you did. You usually plant yourself on the goal line in the middle of the net and the shots seemed to come into your vicinity and you would fling your body and make an amazing save out of nowhere. Mainly due to poor finishing, combined with good reflexes and of course...luck!<br /><br />Congrats on winning the tournament, but I don't think many teams would be going out of their way to acquire your services (am I wrong?). I can think of several keepers that I would want to face less than you, or want to have on my team before you. No offence to you as a guy (since I don't know you), I am attempting to discuss facts.<br /><br />I'm sure you are a nice guy and I commend you for a few of the saves you made last year, but you may be a little delusional if you think you are a top notch keeper because you go to the gym a few times prior to the event and do not play the rest of the year. Didn't someone else take your goal kicks? Distribution is a big part of being an all around goalkeeper.<br /><br />My list<br />1. JD<br />2. Diakiw<br />3. Michael<br />4. Evan<br />5. Jonah<br /><br />The Afghanistan keeper was good last year, but don't think he is returning. Mitch on ES is solid. Tristan is a beast, what happened to him? I don't know this Peto guy. Is Kevin from Yorkton playing? Lots of good, technical keepers out there that are tough to score on.<br /><br />I think Canada will have a solid chance to win with JD in net. Not that I don't think Sudan can win again with Noor, because obviously they did last year.<br /><br />This is what happens when Collins doesn't put one of his "buddies" on a list.<br /><br />RiggsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2057172811780038014.post-42891802898512151832013-03-14T15:40:53.083-07:002013-03-14T15:40:53.083-07:00If that is your view, you are entitled to it. But ...If that is your view, you are entitled to it. But get your facts right first, I didn't play AT ALL this year since I have started a family. <br /><br />Guess what, I did not play at all LAST YEAR neither, yet we won the tournament. I love my team and realise the team is a big part of the success of any keeper not just myself. I did what was expected of me and I am happy with it and at the end of the day I can say I was a champion in WCP history. Can you say the same? <br /><br />As for spectators getting in here, I believe that is a great thing. Without them this tournament will never be the same.<br /><br />Keep your opinion as is though even if you think I suck as it doesn't really matter to me. But non the less it is entertaining so thank you for speaking your mind. <br /><br />We'll see you all in the field and if you beet me good for you, and if I beat you good for me. The field speaks. <br /><br />Just for the sake of argument, why not post your names so I also know you are as you know who I am? It makes the competition that much better when we face each other.

Funny thing is that I didn't even know you guys started on this. My wife told me. So MY WIFE CHECKS THE WCP BLOG (mike's) and I am sure so many other spectators. Well done Mike. :)<br /><br />As for me, I am not technical .I try to be, but its hard after so many years of doing my own thing. Technical is good, but not everything. Understanding the game is far more important. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT LUCK. Please stop saying it's luck. Why? Well because I work my ass off to get fit to be able to play well. Gotta be good to be lucky ;) Unlike big guys / young guys / technical guys.... For me it is a simply equation, be fit and play or do not play at all. I learnt that the hard way getting injuries 3 years in a row in the past. <br /><br />Cheers to the list of goalies, those boys are simply amazing keepers and it is a total piss off not to have a goal keeper award given the importance of the position. Michael is great, Evan is great, Jonah is great, Mario is great. It is such a personality position. Every keeper is different and brings a different aspect to the field. I watch all of the boys and try to learn something different from each. <br /><br />Cheers to all and can not wait for another WCP. Let's do this.
