18 | Stefan Ortega - 2022/23 Performances

[sh249]

As good a no. 2 as its possible to have. Reliable, and comes up with big saves when it matters. Hope we can keep him.

 

[JDV]

Brilliant, well deserved F.A cup winner. 1 goal conceded all tournament and it was from a dodgy penalty.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Fully deserving of his winner’s medal.

He basically won it for us at the end.

 

[lightning Rodri]

That save at the end was so sharp and so clutch, I think he's gonna challenge Ederson next season, he's superb.

Great save.
He even got the customary yellow at around 80th minute :)

 

[BLUEisville]

He might have even more ice running through his veins than Eddie does. I do hope he stays next season because I could truly see him competing for #1, but on the back of that performance I expect we’ll be getting inquiries.

 

[samuelyeboah]

Deserved a clean sheet fuck paul tierney

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Superb back up keeper , the best we have had for a long time , ideally suited to our style of play and a good shot stopper , Ederson commands his area better at set pieces but apart from that there is a cigarrette paper between them,

 

[alexmcity]

Might be harsh on Steffen, but had Ortega played in the FA Cup semi vs Liverpool last season, we could have won the double.

Excellent signing.

 

[city warrior]

Great match. Incredible that people were asking for starting Ederson when Ortega has and a stellar season. Well deserved, and I am equally confident whether Ortega or Ederson starts a match.

Fully deserving of his winner’s medal.

100%

He has a wonderful ability to recognise danger and get himself in exactly the right position,and while he isnt the biggest keeper.....he uses his body brilliantly.

And those who say he isn't any good with his distribution must be due a trip to the optician.

Well done Pep for sticking with him.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Bizarre how Pep wasn't once asked about him post-match. Conceding one goal through the entirety of the FA Cup is some feather in his cap.

 

[nellyonthewing]

Played well today . His kicking was good.

 

[WallyA]

I wouldn't even have any qualms if he was our #1 choice keeper, ridiculous we have someone like him as #2.

If we keep him next year that'd be great.

 

[mattcity5]

Played well today . His kicking was good.

Immense. To complete 38/42 passes was magnificent. Ridiculously calm and fantastically accurate.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Was happy too see him in goal today, he has nerves of steel to keep calm.

 

[walker_is_faster]

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

He’s a cracking keeper.

 

[super_city_si]

Congrats to him. Great cup run and fully deserved win. Been a superb no2 so far.

 

[MCFC1993]

Think we might struggle to keep him this summer. He's only 30, so he probably has a move in him to be somebodies 1st choice if he wants that. Obviously it would take a big offer.

He's far too good to be a number 2 in my opinion, best number 2 we've ever had. I hope he enjoys that role and can stick around for years to come, not a bad gig after all.

 

[Mon Autre]

Wild to think he was picked up on a free as a back up goalie by us when he would easily have been an upgrade as first choice for most Premier League clubs. The likes of Spurs (and United tbh) must be kicking themselves
