The step to his left kills him. No idea why keepers do this!

If the wall is doing its job and he gets it up and over AND in the top corner, fair play to the free kick taker….and no keeper gets slated for not saving it!

If it goes in the keepers side, from 6 yards outside the box (wall was on the 14 yard “line”) with less than half the goal to defend, it HAS TO be on the keeper.

Hate to say it, but THAT’S HIS JOB!

He wouldn't have saved it if he didn't take that step. It was just a top quality free kick from a top quality free kick taker.

It was a good free kick, and I guess we will never know, but I think there are keepers that would have got a paw on that ball. Ederson isn’t one of them, but then that’s never been his game.

Not going to criticise him for any of the goals, but will for running into no mans land. Got away with this one but...

I think he could have done better with Trippier's kick and Wilson's goal. Just me maybe, but couple good saves and aside the out of box scare he was fine. I'm happy Ortega is ready if needed.

I’m not sure who has called him “culpable” for three goals. Could you point them out, because I’m not sure he could have done anything about the first two.

Nobody said he could save all three. I was referring to the trend that started last season of unnecessary criticism of Ederson as a shot stopper. Which you engaged in for their third.

There is little or no chance he saves that free kick. He could have just as easily put it to the other side of the goal and still scored. The guy is good at it.

If you want someone to criticise try John boy for giving away the foul.

I only mentioned “three goals” because that was in your post.

And, as I said? If he gets it up & over the wall and down into the far corner, then that’s fair enough, because that is a much harder ask than a 6 foot keeper standing about 3 yards (9 feet) from his post, and not getting a hand on a ball that is literally 6-7 feet from his hands. The step to the left killed him…and he’s not the first and won’t be the last that gets gone that way.

Already did, just not on the Ederson thread!

He was not at fault, but his positioning was bad. Also, if he was closer to his post, maybe Trippier would have not chosen that spot to shoot. Ederson with his positioning was basically telling Trippier to shoot there. I mean what would you do if the GK is at the center? Of course, you would shoot to the side with no barrier. And because of his bad positioning, even if Trippier's shoot was stoppable, Ederson would have had to cover more ground than usual.

Blimey
 
Some of you moaning bastards do my head in.I can guarantee that had KDB scored that wonderful goal you would have been wanking and drooling over it, and had someone suggested he only scored due to a bad case of goalkeeping you would be calling people Dippers or Rags.
No goalie would have stopped that shot.A wonderful free kick.
