Howard feels for goalkeepers
Everton keeper Tim Howard believes it will always be tough to impress as Manchester United or Arsenal's keeper because their teams are so good.[LNB] While The Toffees keeper is kept busy in a game and always on his toes and looking good making saves, keepers for the league's bigger teams are often merely spectators.[LNB]The imposing American was brought to English football by the Red Devils, but a series of high-profile blunders led to him losing his place before being snapped up by Everton.[LNB]Lukasz Fabianski has come under fire in Arsenal's goal, although he was the man of the match in their 2-0 midweek success over Wolves simply because he made saves aplenty.[LNB]Howard believes playing for the league's bigger clubs will cause problems and that if you fluff your one moment in the limelight to make the save the pressure quickly intensifies.[LNB]"Playing at a club like Arsenal and Manchester United when you are in possession the majority of the time, it is difficult to stand out and be world class," said Howard.[LNB]"That is always the issue they have had with keepers down the years.[LNB]"You need a different mentality, It is difficult because the nature of the best is when you make a lot of saves you look a good goalkeeper.[LNB]"When the opportunities are few and far between, there is more pressure because you only get that one moment to shine."
