Great photograph.

I like his passion and arrogance. Also a great keeper to top it off.

What I like about him is that he is constantly shouting at the defenders throughout the game. For a young keeper that displays a lot of confidence and authority, which is paramount for any keeper.

Ironic that people criticise him for being arrogant. I doubt too many had the same issue with Nev, in spite of his arrogance.

I'd be arrogant if I was on 100k a week and England's #1. He's fully entitled to be smug with his life.

The main difference between the two is nationality, if Nev had been English, he would have been the England GK for years.

Is there any difference a forward celebrating a goal or a keeper saving a pen? If the Palace player had scored the pen then he would have gone to celebrate with his fans.

There's other differences - ability for one. Jordan is excellent, but he's not on Nev's level at this point (and probably never will be - but you can count on a couple of hands [maybe only one] the goalkeepers who ever have been)

Well Goodison went nuts, so why not the keeper?

In terms of arrogance, I’m more concerned about the Cruyff turn (That he said he’d never do!) and the lackadaisical plays on the ball at times (aka the lazy pass to West Ham).

He is a really bright young keeper- there is no doubt about it. BUT... he is still young and has a bit to prove. Giving up 1 goal in 3 is a very good start. That penalty save was excellent and I think he is one of the better shot stoppers in the league.

Fantastic keeper. Enjoy him gang

Lloris has been done for drink driving this year and almost single handedly put Spurs out of the champions league, twice unnecessarily rushing off his line.

We're debating whether Pickford was too cocky after saving a penalty at 0-0, in a game we went on to win.

It’s weird. I don’t think he was arrogant for celebrating that. He looked like a child that couldn’t contain his excitement on Christmas. Nothing wrong with that

Let him do what he wants, we need some arrogance instead of blokes who are happy to be yes men and not compete.

It's like a striker celebrating a goal. It's exactly the same in the context of a game, anyone who has a problem with that is dead weird.
