Entitled to your opinion, but I think saying he's MOTM and an example of why we should have sold pickford (in my opinion our best asset) is vastly overselling what he did today. Any keeper would have done well with our attempts. Not discrediting what Leno did. He can't exactly ask our strikers to test him, but he didn't really have to break a sweat today. And going back to your original point, before we got bogged down on Leno, I dont think it would have been wise to sell Pickford. Demonstrated last season and likely to be this season too, he can keep us in a game.

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
Nothing to do all game and was in no way at fault for the goal... worst keeper of the weekend..

Two Villans join England keeper in Premier League opening weekend's worst XI
It was a baptism of fire for the promoted clubs, with Burnley most heavily represented in the Premier League weekend's worst XI. Four Clarets are join by two Villa defenders...

Comfortably the best English goalkeeper in the pyramid.

Leno made the biggest balls up of the game and didn't cost two points just because of poor refereeing / VAR.
Amount of shot stops he had to make makes me feel a bit more confident about this season.
I understand the view of selling Pickford for inflated £ and spent on bigger needs and deeper squad though.

5 yards out that header was, with the ball in the air for an age.

No chance with the goal, and made surely what will already be save of the season
Too scared on crosses, Sa comes out for that and claims it

Their keeper would've came and claimed it like he did all afternoon
It looked like a goal you'd see up at the local oval on a Saturday morning not something in the premier league.
There’s no debate about it. Sa comes out and collects that easily. Pickford could have at least tried to punch it away. Not commanding enough for easy floated balls like that into the box. Great save earlier, great reflexes, but he’s just not a commanding keeper in those situations.
Absolutely filled his kecks for the offside one aswell. You wouldn't see an under 11s keeper turn their back on the ball like that
