Wtf, here I was thinking he had a good game. I think I'll stay out of this thread rest of this season.

First goal: Compeletely blameless as Malinovskyi was given time and space to launch a rocket
Second goal: Partially Hakan's fault and partially his fault to let the rebound into the dangerous area. He has positioned his body and hand correctly, why he parried the shot into the box and not out of bound is a mystery.
Annuled goal: Funnily he would save the goal if he turned into statue or if he reacted after Piccoli connected the shot. Couldn't blame him to speculate on the shot direction, but top GK would wait until the last second and rely on their reflex and dexterity instead of relying on their instinct.

But Handa knows his own limits so of course it's vice to try to anticipate the shot.

Another good performance, hopefully now we can stop talking about replacement keeper's and how the whole world has lost faith in him :)

ps... I know we are replacing him end of season.

Typical FIF, ready to bash him 247 when he makes a mistake and when he saves the day the thread is completely silent. I forgot to mention it this game since I was so amazed by a 4x sub at the same time. And I'm still amazed, I think it will be the first and the last time I see it.

He should have been sent off after the de Vrij howler, unless I'm missing something here.
To be fair you are not wrong, would have been harsh but you are correct.

I'd give a yellow for that MAX. The dude ran into him while Handanovic did everything in his power to dodge it. Cristiano kicked someone into hospital and I believe he didn't even get a card for that? Lets not be so harsh toward our capitano.

Had a good game (y)

He also had an excellent game against Fiore before being shite again with Atalanta. Ideally he stops flip flopping and just settles on being at least above average.

Defrel could have been clean through on goal but the dumbass decided to throw himself at Handa. Never a foul.

Poor Radu, he must have thought he would start against Lazio for all of 5 seconds. Never a break for him. Now I'm betting on another disasterclass on goal next match.

Just so we are clear I personally didn't think he did anything wrong, at all but you see that given 9.9/10 times why I agree its a red, letter of the law, not my actual opinion that it was not (as said ht in match thread) he's playing really well this season and minus ONE misplaced pass hasn't put a foot wrong for me, but most people who discuss or support clubs are Gigi Buffon's so who am I to comment :)

5 years ago or so Handa would have stayed in the goal and waited until Defrel comes with the ball, but years of criticism made him change his game. He now comes out of his goal more often and yesterday he saved us from going 2 goals down. Credit when credit's due.

It will be like this entire season. Good game followed by a crappy performance, and so on. Which is not that bad, even if he does make a mistake from time to time, he is still good enough. Hopefully when he does have poor game, we can outscore the opponent.

It might not be totally indicative of his current level, but he's finally getting international recognition.

Grande Samir.
