2017/18 Jordan Pickford

[MACCA75]

Some precious souls on here. Yes it was a great save, he had a really solid game and he’s getting praised to the hilt by all and sundry.

 

[MikeH72]

Can’t win can the lad.

No he can’t mate. And I called this correctly last year:

It won't even have to be a mistake, literally ever single goal we concede is going to scrutinised with a fine tooth comb by someone.

Lad in work just told me it was going wide also, he got me that raged I flicked him on the head the little scruff.

Who cares if he conceded that corner - Trippier should have never let that header go in anyway.

Which is exactly what Trippier himself said as well.

Can't fault the team spirit Southgate has managed to get together. Southgate himself also spoke really well on Pickford (and in general) in his presser.

Regardless he can’t take the chance and he made sure. Proud of him.

I've been pointing out to deluded kopites this morning that:

1) if you think he should risk the ball nestling in the top bin/cannoning of the post/licking the paint off the post on the way by, rather than concede a corner, then you are an idiot.

2) That save alone matched David De Gea's total saves for the tournament. Indeed Pickford quadrupled DDG's tournament total in the one game.

3) His penalty save bailed out your captain's error. So pipe down.

Yes it might have been going wide but Jordan was not to know from where he was standing. It was a magnificent save.

...just say ‘Karius’ to them, Tim.

christ could you have imagined if he'd had left it and it went top corner. All those saying he's too short would have had a field day. He absolutely did the right thing.

 

[Kinky Koeman]

I love this lad so much.

He’s young and developing into a fine keeper. He makes mistakes, but not as many as some would have you believe.

He’s bound to make more mistakes going forward. Wouldn’t surprise me if after his next mistake he’s thrown in the bin by the press gimps.

 

[spectateur]

Some people seem to think that the ball goes straight when it is kicked."It wasn't going in" the haters are crying, "no need to touch it". Bollocks isn't it? That Iranian goalie would never have saved that peno from Ronaldo if it had gone straight (heading just inside the post) however it stook a swerve in the last couple of metres and ended up in his arms. Good goalies cover the posts.

 

[ProZ]

Just to confirm it wasn’t going wide. Tra

 

[MACCA75]

I think the fact that with slow motion replays, people still can’t agree if it’s going in or not, it was obviously one he couldn’t risk leaving.

I’m quite nervous for him when I see a trickled shot in his direction tbh. Not that I don’t expect him to save it, just wary of the backlash if he doesn’t!

Did Jordan Pickford make greatest save England fans have never seen?

Written by Dave 'Can I just borrow that' Prentice.

We've all seen it about 100,000 times already, and on a replay seconds after, or on twitter etc etc

The last 10-15 pages reiterate that members on this forum should be made to put their keyboards away after a few gargles. Honestly, there are some seasoned forum posters who have let themselves down very badly here. Still a good read mind!

Also JP couldn't leave that ball even if it was going wide. It was too close to call therefore he made a worldie. That's OUR boy!

And he stuck it right up 'em in the interview. Class!
