2020/21 Jordan Pickford

[cronullasharks]

When in doubt as a keeper just hoof it even if it sprays out for a corner, don't run across the face of goal as if the next kick is gonna be some magic 90 yard assist.

Virginia must be way off to not get a sniff tonight

 

[carolinablue232]

Probably don't have a choice unless he want's to pop Virginia into the team. I mean what's the worst that can happen?

He had one and a half things to do the whole night, and somehow still let in 2 goals. Can’t really be worse.

Team has lost confidence in him. If you were playing in defence or midfield would you pass the ball back to him under pressure? I wouldn’t.

he’s a liability and almost every game he has a brain fart.

Sound out Ben Foster for a year or two.

This, it has nothing to do with arrogance, concentration, ADHD (!?) lack of competition for his place or anything like that.

Quite simply he just is not that good at being a goalkeeper. His basics are shocking.

Wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss the bolded part.

Without question he lacks concentration, and that’s a symptom of a bigger issue. What that issue is only an expert could tell. The constant fidgeting, the spasmodic movements, the inability to remain calm, the shouting at nothing, the overexcited reaction to run of the mill stuff (saving a shot).

If he hasn’t been diagnosed with something he should be.

Called it.

Well, they say it's a sign of a quality player if he can entirely turn a game on his own, so........

He's basically the Anti-Rodriguez then.

I don't get it. Are they saying their food is turd?

He's an amazing keeper.

It’s amazing he’s our keeper

Could take Danjel Subasic for a year or two if we wanted to go down that route.

I'm dismissing it because its a bit mad for people who are not trained professionals to diagnose such a thing purely because he is crap at goalkeeping.

He could just be crap. There doesn't have to be a reason.

 

[TheBigIguana]

There has to be a GK coming in or the successes of this window will be put in jeopardy by PIckford's failures.

 

[Parker]

What makes these 2 mistakes so bad is that they are 2 totally different areas of goalkeeping.

The first is decision making and reading the game.

And the other is pure technique and shot stopping.

He's not been the same keeper since Anfield and this is the final nail in the coffin, he's finished.

Its only a matter of time until he costs us now.

Just got in and missed everything. Did we lose 2-0 ? Did Pickford throw the game? Get rid.
