Yes, but that's the point I made with Wolf, it's how he reacts: there is a book on everyone, it's a question of whether they can overcome and adapt - and the best players always do. That's part of what makes them the best.

Also, the book on goalies is more direct than that on players, because weaknesses can be more directly exploited. If a goalie has a weak glove, goals are going in until he fixes it.
