2018/19 Jordan Pickford

Just watching the saves again.Both good but saves you'd expect most Premier League keepers to make.BBC trying to turn him into the new Gordon Banks.

That's football mate, same with 90% of goals scored, ie you would expect a professional footballer to score them. It is all about anticipation and positional play. That's the difference between top class and average whichever end of the pitch you do your stuff.

P S unless you're name is Karious

Makes me laugh when people say that the shots were right at him* therefore they weren't really good saves.

Someone kicks a ball at me at 80mph and I tell you now I scream and do anything I can to avoid being hit in the face.

He still has to save it regardless of "ease". A save is a save in my book.

*Or any goalkeeper for that matter.

If he was still at Sunderland, does anyone really believe that the media would be linking him to us?

Indeed, what's positioning to a goalkeeper, I mean come on, it's easy, you stand moving side to side!

Indeed, Banks and co could only save what was thrown at them.......

Can't really be faffed trawling. But look through the Pickford thread. Even in March folk were calling for Robles.

Was is Sags? Because if so that doesn’t count.

Sorry I didn't mean to quote you but now you ask I can't recall anyone near me calling for Robles to replace him.

 

[EvertonCJ]

Rapidly becoming my favourite player, apart from Seamus obviously. Very proud of his efforts to date.
