This will be the making or breaking of Pickford and I think he is mentally strong enough for this to get him back on track.
The absolute hysteria about this one incident has gotten to a silly level. If he had tried to shoot Van Dijk I don't think the reaction would be any worse.
Evertonians now need to rally around their players and support them more than ever... Pickford most of all.
We need that siege mentality of everybody hating us but we don't care.
The reaction from Liverpool is , I think, a little unhinged and I will be interested to see how they cope.
It sounds a little as if they believe they need Van Dijk and lack confidence without him.
