It’s got to the point with this lad that I hope we sign him and he proves every fucker wrong. The level some people reckon he’s at makes him seem like a pub team goalkeeper. The guy has played a lot of football for Porto in the league and champs league and also for Portugal in international tournaments. Hes no bum. Fair enough he might not have been peoples preferred option but let’s not go over the top on things

Going to be gutted when Ed leaves. He's been class for us and an absolute nut case of a character

Is there a goalkeeper with more top flight titles than Ederson? There isn't in the Premier League era and I can't think of who might have more in the First Division era. He has six, one more than Clemence and Schmeichel
 
This good with his feet obsession needs to stop. We’d probably have another UCL if we had a great shot stopper. Look at the amount of times keepers like Courtois, Alisson and Donnaruma have single handley kept their teams alive in a UCL match.

Just watched an 8 minute compilation of him and he didn’t catch the ball once in the 8 minutes of highlights. Nearly every save of his ends up as a corner kick or back to the opponents feet.

What the fuck are we doing?

He is a great shot stopper, that's what he's known for. He has freakishly high penalty save stats, for example.

False framing. No one who plays for a professional football team is a bum. Everything you've said sbove also applies to Onana at United. Doesn't mean we should want him.

We are comparing apex athletes here. On eye test he seems inferior yo many others. And it doesn't help that stats also suggests that.

But hey, anyone can improve. If he joins we'll pray he becomes a star. It is what it is.
 
Not sure why but I'm not too interested in this guy... Would've rathered Joan Garcia but that opportunity is gone.

Would rather Ederson to stay though and don't know why so many people don't!
