    It's a shocking miss, Valencia has pretty much an open goal but directs it to where Randolph is standing. It should still probably go it but Randolph drags it back from the line very impressively. Shades of Seaman against Sheffield United years ago maybe but need to see it another few times, probably not that good.

    Obviously Randolph had anticipated the direction of the shot and was already in place, thereby making the impossible possible.

    DeL is desperately trying to stay in control of the Randolph narrative...

    I think Randolph was expecting that to be ruled offside.

    How about that Ibrahimovic though?

    I thought the goals were supposed to magically dry up once he moved to the Premier League, because the Premier League is so superior to all the other leagues he played in.

    Not really, in fact the more I see it the more I think it's a shocking miss more than a brilliant save. He gets a strong hand and fair play to him for keeping it out but not as brilliant as I thought initially. He made an absolute mess of a Rashford shot a few minutes ago but the post saved him (twice I think!). That harsh enough for you Stu?

    Ibra is unreal quality. Anyone who wasn't stupid knew that his quality would translate although his age was, for me, the only potential barrier I could see and obviously it hasn't been as I don't know of any other player since our own Paul McGrath that can conserve energy on the pitch like Ibra.

    That goal was offside though.

    Another good save by Randolph to keep the score down.

    I dunno DeL. He just pulled a quality stop out of the bag there again... (the first was a quality save even just for the fact that he didn't give up).

    I bet you're really mad at the post... :P

    Almost as mad as I was at that crossbar saving him in Belgrade.

    Randolph making a mockery of Stutts' suggestion he doesn't make great saves now.

    Did I say that? Presumably in comparing him to Westwood?

    I said his save at Anfield was brilliant, and despit Geysir playing it down a little I stand by that. I haven't seen the much lauded save at Old Trafford.

    I'm with Delores on this one though, very good save but unbelievably bad miss. Much more about the miss than the save. It was a bit (note: a bit) like Sinclair's winner in the recent OF game, where he gave the keeper a half chance to save a shot he shouldn't have even given a chance to get a touch on.

    You said something along the lines that he makes the saves you'd expect a goalkeeper to make but no more, but he's a good steady presence. At least I hope it was you, otherwise I'm on the hook for a defamation suit.

    Also had one near-howler in the second, ball slipped under him and came back off the post, hit his back but luckily didn't creep over the line. Another fine save from Herrera near the end though.

    I said Randolph made an excellent save at Old Trafford. I just explained imo how he made the save possible by his deliberate good positioning.

    On last night's talking point save, I'd say seeing as the ball was traveling at thunderbolt speed, was certifiably halfway across the goal line before Randolph got his outstretch left paw onto it, I'd put the save alongside Randolph's greats (an expanding list).
    Also he made a very good foot stop late on in the game from a player (Herrera?) clean through on goal.
