2020/21 Jordan Pickford

[Del-boy]

Gary Neville said Italy were always going to have the advantage on the penalties shootout because of their great goalie? I know he doesn't rate Pickford, but that statement is bizarre considering Jordan saved two.

I don’t think it was a dig at Pickford. The Italian keeper is massive and takes up half the goal.

I’m glad he’s had such a good tournament. It’s winding the Kopites up even more. They had all been hoping he would have a disaster and it’s been the opposite.

He's 6ft 6, is only 22 and is in the top 3 keepers in world football. It's no dig at Pickford.

So in the middle of last season loads of us, including me, were desperate for Pickford to have a good tournament so we could sell him for a good price. Is that off the table now?

We will not sign a better replacement, so yes. If he's finally put his erratic behaviour behind him, we've got a very good keeper.

Yes.

Pickford is average. There is no indication that he will end the comedy nights.

He's been solid for over 6 months. That coincided with him hiring a sports psychologist. I reckon there's a decent chance he's sorted himself out.

I don’t think it was a dig at Pickford. The Italian keeper is massive and takes up half the goal.

He`s also got a near 70% success rate for saving pens, which is an astounding stat.

He`ll easily be the worlds most expensive when he`s sold.

He has too little range, and is technically weak with the ball in his legs. He is also not very good at reading the game. In addition, he will always make one or two mistakes too much during the season. He can be spectacular to look at, because he makes a lot out of little. But we'll see, there's no sign that we'll sell him.

Is that called "damned with faint praise"?

If he'd saved every penalty he might have squeezed a 7.

His save for their goal was world class. It was John stones getting outmuscled and Harry Kane just standing on the line that led to the equaliser.

He's objectively England's second best goalkeeper of all time.
