Have you seen his distribution
And the way he can't control his area.

His distribution was so good at Inter though, he would pop up anywhere spraying passes, had a decent game against us in the final too. Obviously way below that level now, but i always thought through Ajax and Inter he had the makings of a great goalie.

Bravo, Onana, Sanchez, and Karius are perfect examples of the importance of your keeper not being liability that ruins the team. I don’t think we can rely on Ederson, but not sure there are available alternatives.

Onana is in a league of his own. The others are erratic and error prone. Onana is a doom switch

Speak for yourself
I am desperate to keep Eddie and I know many like minded Blues who think the same.

Opinions are fine. When I said 'we' though, I was meaning the club really. I just get the impression we're going along the lines of "you can stay if you want", rather than "we really want you to stay, here's a new contract".

Personally though I think he was poor too often last season and he isn't the only keeper out there who can play his way any more.

Totally agree that if pep gets a sniff of a player wanting to leave he then encourages them to leave with the exception of Bernardo.
But the long list of our priorities in this window had a keeper at the bottom in my opinion.

No he wasn't. He had a nice highlights reel but he's always been this shaky and prone to a colossal fuck up. Inter were very willing to sell and couldn't believe their luck when united offered as much as they did.

Yeah there's some truth in that, but at 25 if he'd found more consistency to his game he had the raw fundamentals to be really good. He needed to go somewhere, take confidence in his distribution and iron out the gaps on concentration. As it is he lost faith in his distribution and made more and more mistakes and miscommunications with his defence.

United ruin every player they buy, its hard to remember any of them actually being decent prior. As for them making absolutely insane offers just look at paying more for Hojlund and Anthony than the clubs even set the price at. Seems like most clubs who sell players to United are in disbelief at the offer.

HaHa TBF his confidence is shot playing behind that back 4 but still wouldn't have him anywhere near our team, we are in need of a quality shot stopper,
we will never find a keeper as good as Eddy with his feet but we can find one better with his hands
 
Not that we need him with Ederson still here for the time being, but I'm curious as to why there isn't much talk of Unai Simon going anywhere. He's certainly a solid keeper and has kept his position against some decent internal competition in the Spain team, but just seems weird that few, if any, clubs are in for him.
 
Chelsea getting. Maignan for as little as €15M seems like something we should have looked at while doing the Tijjank deal
