The way we are set up to play, 9 out of 10 top quality keepers would struggle - Ederson is just really unusual in his distribution and his unflappability, and we really heavily depend on that. And Liverpool are probably the best pressing team in the country.
Yes, he fucked up today - horrible error - but of 2nd keepers we've had in recent years he's better than Bravo, Caballero, Carson...
He’s nowhere near Bravo or even Caballero. Not even close. Bravo had a shaky start and got a lot of undeserved hate from a section of our fanbase who were in love with Joe Hart. It probably knocked his confidence being booed and jeered by his own fans and he never really regained it fully. Still though he was a top keeper and he showed that in our cup runs towards the end of his City career, as well as during his time at Barcelona and when he played for Chile.The way we are set up to play, 9 out of 10 top quality keepers would struggle - Ederson is just really unusual in his distribution and his unflappability, and we really heavily depend on that.

That isn't the answer though, is it?Just play Ederson every time.
Why?That isn't the answer though, is it?
Because no player is immune from injury and, should Eddie be out for weeks, you need a goalie who has had some play time to step in.Why?
Just seen some of the abuse Zak has had on social media and it's going too far
Ok he made a howler
I remember Allison doing it twice at Anfield when we beat them 4-1
:Yes I would have played Eddie
But the level of Pelters Zak is getting is out of order
So how did United manage during their two decades of dominance?Because no player is immune from injury and, should Eddie be out for weeks, you need a goalie who has had some play time to step in.
Not in anyway suggesting Steffen is the answer, but simply playing one keeper every game will eventually come back to bite
