Yann Sommer.

He played really well every time I have seen him play.
Pickford is a good keeper when he is on form, not a great keeper and prone to mistakes that get to him.
I think he get unfair stick at times, but if you honestly asked me as an Everton fan going forward would Iike a more steady player in goal despite his upturn in form ,
I would still say yes.
Until we get one will support him.

I presume if England had scored that free kick it would have been described as a “ Perfect free kick . Schmeichel had no chance “

If Pickford did on the pen what Schmeichel did, we would never hear the end of that one, as we never seem to hear the end of most things when it come's to Pickford lol

Nice to see the former Sunderland and ex-Preston North End loanee winning the 'Golden Gloves' Award. Well done Jordan Pickford.

Lets see him goalkeeping at a high level over a longer period for Everton against PL teams before we go all crazy about him. This has happened before. Looking great against national sides, then stinking the league out with tons of mistakes.

I mean, he's been pretty faultless for like 4 months now. But of course the amount of time is irrelevant for people who are literally looking for the inevitable mistake that ALL goalkeepers make.

In my opinion the last third of the season he was excellent

Seen a few say the Kane comments myself, not been anywhere near as good this comp as he could be to me, but its his goals that will be as ever what he's counted on-he was awful the 1st 2/3 games and if his name was not kane and the so called best England striker, he surely wouldnt have played the next game etc and would have been subbed earlier than he was/is

He was just excellent last night

It coincided with him working with a sports psychologist. He has been consistently excellent and calm for half a season.

I had doubts about him, but he is now performing like the keeper we all hoped he'd be.

Pickford has been ace for months, was average last night. Nowt wrong with that

Tbh i thought lee dixon was ok tonight. Possibly got wind of all the unfair stick he's previously been giving him.
But yeah. He's one error from being the villian and it wont take much.

This morning on Talk Sport they were trying their best to get Seaman to hang the free kick on him. He wouldn't bite,but didn't absolve him of all blame either.

 

[Pabbers]

This is 3 Internationl tournaments he has been brilliant...the highest stage, biggest pressure in the game, and his bossing it.

How many of these tournys does he have to boss, before people lay off him.

Tbf Kane was out of this world, shaw was excellent too

"Out of this world"? I feel you're being a bit generous there, mate. Thought that Kane started to grow into the game as it went on and ended doing pretty well, but didn't think he did anything outstanding. That's just my opinion of course.

I think it was the Anfield mistake that killed him off, no coincidence that he was our POTS the first season and that happens and his form falls off a cliff.

I also think the way Pickford thinks, rightly or wrongly, is that once a mistake is made he needs to make up for it. With that Anfield one being literally the last kick of the game, he had no chance to redeem himself there. That would defo weigh heavily on him, and that need for redemption is what makes him rash and overly eager.

The most recent Derby has book ended that period of bad form for me, I genuinely think he exorcised those demons with that performance. And he's been excellent ever since

First half maybe not, but second half onwards he carries the ball and bought free kicks which relieved any pressure brilliantly.
Most sources a citing him motm or second behind sterling or Walker

Interesting tactic to give it to the nearest Danish player everytime he kicked it. Very unorthodox.
