2022/23 Jordan Pickford

[jazzy]

I can't imagine that if I was a defender ( good job for Everton that I'm not ) that he would inspire me with confidence.

He can't command his area , he is erratic but will then pull off a worldie.

Three shocking mistakes yesterday. Can't understand why he tried so hard to stop a ball going out for a corner only to have the ball fall to a Chelsea player close to goal. Lucky for us he didn't prevent the corner. Very poor dealing with the shot that rebounded off him for Sterling's offside goal. Then losing the ball late on way outside his penalty area. How long more will we have to put up with this car crash of a keeper?

Don’t think the captaincy is a good idea. Let him just focus on his day job

 

[TrixyStevens]

The occasion of wearing the armband got the better of him. I don’t want to come across as ignorant but the fella is as thick as a double ditch. Even after 200 appearances he is still a liability.

I don't like goalkeepers being captains. I'd rather have an outward player as skipper to cajole, encourage and, where necessary, question the referee regards decisions. I know Pickford likes spending time well out of his box (mores the pity), but he's too far from the action to get the armband. He's also way too erratic and far from being a good example. We do have a player who ticks all the boxes though, as he's a newbie, its a question of maybe next time for Tarkowski.

What’s going on here then?

The injury to Godfrey is a freak one. It’s the first game of the season, people can be a bit rusty.

Was amazing last year, and long May it continue.

I thought he was poor today RM, could have cost us a 2nd when he dallied on the ball and Pulisic took it off him.

Didn't look confident on corners, distribution poor and didn't cover himself in glory for the Godfrey injury.

All in all not a solid performance imo

He never looks confident on corners does he? I can't think of a time where he hasn't punched a corner away but caught it instead.

 

[MikeH72]

I’ll never fully trust him. He makes me incredibly nervous.

 

[larbert toffee]

Seemed a bit rusty today. Needs to think about his kicking as well. Flat trajectory fired at pace towards our fragile attackers doesn't work.

TBF a high trajectory would have been worse when we hav no strikers with heading ability in the side yesterday.

 

[larbert toffee]

I’ll never fully trust him. He makes me incredibly nervous.

Are there any players in our team that you have confidence in Mike?

No mate.

he did yday

 

[everton1953]

Poor judgement of Lampard to make him captain. We could get good money for England's no 1 and buy a striker.

 

[larbert toffee]

No mate.

I appreciate your honesty.
