Just watched the England game on catchup, the co-commentator (Alan Smith ?) had it in for him and back in the studio they were proper taking the piss out of him in a kind of "isn't he eccentric" type of way. Ian Wright whilst being OTT had a point about the diving around, especially after the ball is past him.
One thing i did notice when he made that comedy mistake whoever was commentating at the time said "The Everton goalie" which was funny, but didnt hear Everton mentioned when he was doing good things
 
Is that what I said? You trying to tell me he and Barkley don’t sound thick? And what are you taking about with disabilities?
I am telling you EXACTLY that .
Because the don’t talk an a posh accent and string wonderful eloquent sentences together .... they are not thick ...they are just young men forced into the public eye and into a television camera after a game “totally unprepared “
Your statement and defence in my humble opinion are reprehensible

Accents don’t have anything to do with it.
 

Barkley is as dumb as a box of hair but that's not because of his voice. Pickford just has a really thick accent.
Everton fans slaying best keeper we’ve had in years and years and years - shocked I am.
Yeah, let's put Stekelenburg in goal instead! He's so much better!

(Also Welsh Pickford would totally be 'Y Pycfford')
 
Yeah because you know clean sheets aren't a team thing. It's purely down to the goalkeeper.
So its okey to blame every other player than the one whos single role in the team is stoping balls from getting in the net, when a ball goes in the net? How in the world is a keeper letting in I dont even know how many goals since joining us not to blame, but everyone else is? I know a lot of people have high hopes for Jordan, but come one!
He isnt what a lot of our fans want him to be, and unless he improves dramatically, he never will. He’s going on 25, having played 2-3 full seasons in the prem. If he hasnt improved dramatically over the two seasons we’ve had him, I dont understand why anyone would think he suddenly will. Jordan is fairly average, with a good save in him here and there, but thats about it.

Yeah. That’s what people are saying.

The NE accent just sounds like people are very thick. Many are not as we all know.
 
I hope he's highlighted over his mistake in the media. It might help us in that he's then under the microscope, and he might stop arseing around while playing for us.

I did remember him saying he'd never do something like that after Alisson made an arse of himself.

... I was just waiting since then for him to do it ha.

To begin, you blame who has made the error whether it is Pickford or whoever else has made the error. Every goal that is conceded is not the goalkeepers fault entirely. Sometimes, believe it or not, it could just be a really good finish (Alcacer's header last night for example).

Secondly the view point that goalkeepers have a single role nowadays is absolutely medieval. They are trusted to do much more than stop the round thing going in the goal.

This post, as with a lot that gets posted in this thread (not just by yourself), is not a balanced reflection of Pickford's ability, it's just shouting an incredibly biased opinion as loudly as you can over and over again.

If Pickford does something wrong. Go ahead slate him all you want. But if you do that then imo you have to commend him when he does something right otherwise you just look like you have an agenda.

I saw that on Twitter with his comments and then the aforementioned gif of him doing that turn last night.

Hopefully he does what Alisson has done,brush it off as a one off and keep it simple and not complicate his game.
