    It's easy to forget just how good a 'keeper he is as he's had nowt to do for 4 months. Just another Barnsley fan with the best ticket in the ground to admire that defence. Got his chance to strut his stuff last night and he was fantastic. Took a world class strike to beat him.

    He was absolutely fantastic last night. The best thing you can think about any keeper is that the on you have is the first name n the team sheet but you never really think about him because he makes everything appear effortless. Adam reminds me of Clive Baker in that respect.

    You're right. He's made a few good saves recently but they've been so few and far between and largely so unimportant that you don't really remember them. It was good to see him making quite a few of them and on sky where they can be replayed for everyone to see.
    He's come on leaps and bounds from when he first signed for us and he would/will be a more than adequate number one in the championship

    I couldn't even tell you who's 3rd pick for England for the Euros, but I bet they're not a patch on Adam.

    And in goalkeeping terms, he's only a Bairn.

    Got to be honest he always used to worry me with balls into the box. But he has been incredible recently, well done to the lad obviously working hard on his game and now looks a real class keeper.

    Pleased for all of them, but voted for Adam in POTY so am especially pleased for him. I really see a brilliant keeper there, and hopefully a Red for years to come.

    Agree - had an excellent game.

    But we've also seen some other very good goalkeepers at Oakwell recently!

    He making at least one incredible save per game now

    And to think in goalkeeping terms he's not even been born yet
    (Kevein Keegan said goalkeepers arent born until they are 28)
    If he keeps improving .......

    That save in first leg from the free kick was a cracker, he had to dive backwards to claw it out.
