Joel Robles

[orly]

Name me six better goalies than him in the Prem?

Cech
Courtois
De Gea
Loris
The lad at Burnley
Pickford

Very quick 6

Could probably chuck Foster, Forster and Pickford in too. I could go on

Agree on Lloris, Cech,DDG, Courtois and Pickford.

I dont see any real difference between Joel and the rest at all.

Ye. My point is that aside from four or five there arent many better than him. That may be down to the standard of goalkeeping, or it may be that Joel is much better than we all think.

Are they all really better than Robles? Most of them probably have a higher profile, I agree. Imo Robles never really got a fair chance uptil now. Sure he got a few runs in the team, but never felt he got the complete confidence from his managers.

Not saying he definitely is the answer, or on a par or better than the goalkeepers mentioned, as I'll need more evidence on that atm. However, have to say that I'm warming to him.

Has a lot of attributes you look at for a gk though. He's tall, athletic and agile. Also seems to get more commanding in his area by the passing of each match he plays.

Definitely worthy of getting a chance of establishing himself as our no 1 keeper for the years to come.

That's six

Robles has 11 clean sheets in his last 22 Premier League starts.. over the course of a season if he kept that average up he would've won the golden glove in the past 8 seasons.

True. I applaud the literal perspective on this.

My point remains. Aside from a few who would cost 20m plus, Joel is more than good enough .

Mate plenty think he's not even the best keeper at Everton lol.

Sorry but I dont want to settle for good enough (assuming he is ...) I want class between the sticks. There is no reason why we shouldnt spend £20 million on a class act. I know the established keepers wouldnt come here but Pickford and Heaton would and thats before we look overseas.

Might as well go with until the summer. If his form goes can always put the other keeper back in.

I'm not certain either are definitely that much better than Joel if at all? Pickford is young so will probably become a brilliant player, but he's not the tallest.

I wouldn't want us to spend £20m+ on either of them. Hart is the right step up if we were to buy IMO.

Amazing isnt it?

The whole team defend better, and the keeper looks more solid.

Who would have thought it.

Confidence in general appears to be improving
