I keep saying to my eldest daughter that it must play on the defenders' minds in front of him because he doesn't communicate with them or offer any inspiration.

As a defender if you have a solid goalkeeper to rely on, you can focus on your own game and not have to second guess what errors you expect them to make.

Will he flap it? If a player is running with the ball, what will he done? Can I trust that he'll be in the right place or is he going to wipe me out - think Son?

I wonder if that is why Mina was all over the second half blocking balls left and right. I do agree that Everton has a problem with the goalkeeper. He simply does not inspire confidence and it is going to lose points because of it. Yesterday he made not only the mistake for the first goal against, but he also almost injured Mina, and slapped a ball to the middle. I hope this is simply a bad spell for him and he can get back to form as he did against the Spurs.
 
He's been terrible for a long time. We desperately need a new keeper.

Made three bad errors yesterday. The first goal, almost another when parrying the ball back into the danger zone (which he's been doing since he arrived and hasn't improved on) and nowhere to be seen when Mina has to clear off the goal line, almost injuring him trying to belatedly get there.

His positioning wasn't great for their 2nd either, as he was more to the left than the centre of his goal, but some would say that's a bit harsh.

He was lucky that Brighton seemed go short on every corner and free kick, which puzzled me. You'd think they'd just put it in the box and put him under pressure.

That's definitely what Liverpool will be doing in two weeks time I can guarantee that.

His mental issues are huge. Every single member of this squad is playing above themselves, except one. The feel good atmosphere just won’t rub off on him.

I’m not sure how that can be changed.

Exactly. We are playing with a swagger and smashing teams being top of the league. He’s acting like we are a goal away from relegation. What’s with him.
