Seen on BBC website......Hmmmmmm
"Fulham keeper David Button has the highest passing accuracy of all goalkeepers in the Championship to have played a minimum of 10 matches this season (69.25%)."

I saw this. A goal kick probably counts as a pass so that fact Button probably makes a lot more short passes than most other keepers has something to do with that

No other keeper is that stupid to attempt so many passes

What's his save % and ranking? That's what he's paid to do

His passing along the ground has got a lot better -- it's when he chips it out to either flank that's the problem.

all goals scored since the beginning of football could have been stopped -- every goal in every match is the result of an error. The only possible score for a match in which no errors are made is 0-0.

I was there tonight and his distribution was good tonight but a keeper must make saves and give confidence and he fails too often.

Thought this has been his only poor game of the season - give him a break... he's been for the most part solid this season.

It didn't cost us.

Just watched goals,the one through his legs he could have kept out,others were bad defending him and a deflected one.

You could say that about all the other keepers who have done the same.  Happens in the premier league too.  It was a well struck shot
