2024/25 Jordan Pickford

[Joey66]

All keepers make mistakes. No one tells Allison or Ederson they need to calm down though when they get caught out their goal or kick a clearance against a player into their own net.

Pickford is judged more harshly than any other keeper in the league.

He has had his best season ever - as i pointed out Dyches tactics kept him very busy - he has to stop ranting at the defence when he is at fault though ....

It’s all part of what makes him a good goalkeeper. He plays on the edge.

Almost all keepers do this. If our goalkeeper wasn’t shouting at his defence I’d be worried. Howard used to do it all the time.

the great keepers i watched for us never did it as much as that Westy Big Nev & Nigel Martyn - in fact, Westy used to apologise ....

Shouting at his defence fine

Shouting at his defence for his mess up - not fine.

 

[Walken]

Ball for the second goal was his and he knew it, the way he flew out for the next ball into the box was a man determined to make amends

Are you serious? Never was turning the air blue in friendlies and charity matches, let alone competitive games

Did he not suffer from tourettes syndrome?

 

[ToffeeScot]

His temperament is his biggest strength and biggest weakness at the same time.

Did he get booked in that melee? Doesn't that mean a suspension if he did?

He got booked for time-wasting in the 70th minute. Think the ref was fairly clueless during that scrap. Stood listening to his headset rather than wading in.

100% agree

There is nobody I’d rather have especially at the level we are currently at in goal than Jordan and we are lucky to have him.

Well past bored of all the “erratic” nonsense these no mark pundits have been peddling for years. Compare him to the media darlings Pope or Ramsdale who make so many more errors yet don’t receive the scrutiny, he’s one of if not the best keeper the country has ever had. Problem is what you have in front of you and the lad has either had Keane for club or Slabhead for country as protection yet he’s still excelled.

I don’t want a stiff “dickie wright” in goal. I want a monster who is going to stare Earling Harland in the face and threaten to eat him whole before saving a pen to get us the points.

Yeah, in keeping with the rest of his incompetent performance.

Jordans genuinely going to have to be careful with these time wasting cards, he'll end up with a 2 game ban at this rate!

5 bookings within the first half of the season is a ban, so he was past that.

 

[lieneverton]

Sorry should have clarified, I was concerned he'd got a 2nd yellow in the game in the melee. But then again wasn't "in" the game.
