3 Goalkeepers who are currently not Premier League standard

Wayne Hennessey

The Welshman has given nobody any reason to believe that he is worthy of a starting place in any Premier League side.

Despite occasional good performances and saves, his costly mistakes have overshadowed most things he has done well.

Even though he has conceded two of the best goals the Premier League has ever seen – Olivier Giroud’s scorpion strike and Andy Carroll’s bicycle kick – he has also produced some woeful performances which led to manager Alan Pardew to purchase a new No.1 in the summer.

At 6ft 6in, Hennessey gives Palace a commanding presence in the box, and for his height is surprisingly quick to the floor.

But his poor positioning in all situations and awful decision making has lead to not only Palace fans, but Premier League fans in general, to believe that his place is in the Championship.
