I like Pope myself but I think there has to be better and cheaper than him in Europe surely.

Pope has made more mistakes than Pickford this season. I agree a taller keeper who dominates his box and makes "solid" saves would be preferable to Pickford though.

Player of the season not too long ago.
Pickford hasn't had a single 'howler' all season.
The state of this board is incredible. Apparently every single goal should have been stopped.
Perreya absolutely leathers it into the top corner fron about 10 yards out and you get weirdod saying he 'should have done better'
It's just so strange.
He does make some great reaction saves but let’s himself down in a few areas,his inability to deal with crosses and his positional sense on balls that come across him(saturdays first goal a good example). Can he improve through coaching,I don’t know. I cant see him wanting to leave unless a bigger team comes in for him,which is very doubtful. So we are stuck with him in which case we need to find a goalkeeping coach who is capable of improving him and a better back up to put him under pressure.
Not sure you call out the keeper on Saturday's first goal. player has a free shot, through the legs of one player, narrowly missing the knee of another and then is in off the far post. The majority of the goals we concede have nothing to do with Pickford. We do need someone properly challenging him for his position however.
I still think he should have got a hand to it as it was fairly obvious where he was aiming for,just my opinion
Not true as a defence we conceded some of the fewest shots on target a game in the leauge. Pickford shot on target to goal ratio is the second poorest in the leauge though. It's around one in every 3 shots on target is a goal.
He is a truly terrible keeper.

I like Pickford, but i have been critical of him this season. I think if you sign someone for £30m as a "promising gk" you expect to see an improvement in them 3-4yrs down the line, unsure of whether we've seen that from him - however, its not black and white and other things need to be taken into consideration.
BUT - if someone offered us £30+ in the Summer, basically the chance to get our money back, would you take it?

Correct - short memories and all that. I honestly believe he's a confidence player, and as collective confidence amongst the current group of players grows under Ancelotti, Pickford's performances will improve.
On his day there's not many better goalkeepers in the world.
I am a big critic of Pickford we are that skint we let our no 2 go .....to save on wages the stek is too old dodgy knees Everton that.......
This kind of criticism is not constructive. guess he should have saved the second as well. Muppet.
Calling someone a Muppet is very constructive criticism. Be proud of yourself

The Fulham keeper, Rodak, has been brilliant all season. He's Slovakian I think. A big lad with fantastic positioning and reflexes. Worth at least a role as Pickford's understudy, although in my opinion he is far better.
