2018/19 Jordan Pickford

[Coggy]

Should of gone for Hart, Schmeichel or someone from Burnley apparently.

Yeah, absolutely laughable isn't it mate.
Some posters are almost obsessed in the need to slag our own players for a few short term mistakes , without looking at the bigger picture.
They all know who they are as well.
Generally conspicuous by absence !!.

After slating the lad all season for any little thing he puts after he puts in a great performance here is Davek quote we got beat let two goals in NEA .

Yeah , but does anyone really give any credibility to things posted like that from davek ?. Don't like the almost obsessive need to slag off our own players. Odd beyond belief !

He should have parried the penalty out of harms way and if he had positioned himself 2 more steps to his left he probably would have got Martials shot. The one on one with Martial he should have caught it. Drogbas near post shot should have been smothered rather than conceding a corner and Martials pile driver in the first half should have been caught and quickly thrown out to Richarlison who was in acres of space. Cost us the game today.

I am surprised this hasn't been picked up on.......or has it?

You a wum mate? I nearly fell for it.

 

[deipnosophist]

He’s a very good GK

If he could have parried the penalty anywhere else he would have done. "Should have"? Yeah, sure.
As for the second.... yeah if he had positioned himself on his left post he would have just had to pick it up. No goalkeeper in the world, whose starting position was correct (as Pickford's position was), was going to save that shot. It happens.

I couldn't help myself because I think he was serious.

 

[BlueToff]

Kept us in the game. Didn't cost us one bit.

Said himself he wished he'd have got more power on the parry, but if you look at the pen, it's that poor there was just no power on the ball either, so Pickford would have had to swing his arm towards it to hit it clear. Pogba got lucky.

That 6 year contract should have been 10 years minimum imo

 

[Parker]

With Lloris' form going tits up, this guy is fighting with Alisson for the 3rd best keeper in the premier league imo. He made 4 world class saves against United, I'm yet to see Alisson do that and his kicking is just as good. I hope he stays here for a long time.

He’ll be at United next season when De Gea leaves.

Where’s De Gea going?

 

[Parker]

Where’s De Gea going?

The Real Madrid boat has sailed so it looks more likely that he will sign a new deal. Or maybe PSG?

 

[Del-boy]

De Gea is deffo off as he’s out of contract. Obviously the concern will be united coming sniffing but we are in a strong position with Pickford signing a new contract.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Where’s De Gea going?

I imagine somewhere, because he’s stalling on his deal. PSG, perhaps?

That’s a step down. He’ll stay there.

 

[GwladysBlue]

That’s a step down. He’ll stay there.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see how United shape up next year. A lot of players are out of contract and Mourinho could well be gone.
