31 | Ederson - 2021/22 Performances

[lonestay]

Eddie is our no1 goalkeeper fact .The sooner we all realise this then we can stop over analysing his performances , Eddie has one of the hardest positions in our team, most of his game is watching football played in front of him for long periods of time without being involved himself, and then is expected to be 100% alert for when a cock up is made by the defence and has to react in seconds, sometimes he can ,and sometime he cant make the save . Eddie is the best out there at what he does . Next season when he is putting laser accurate balls to the Viking just like he did Kun people wont be moaning then !

Would eddie make the same saves Courtois made tonight in the chumps league final. I honestly don't think he would.

Courtois was their match winner tonight but he did concede 5 goals in the Semi Final

Not a chance. You need an elite shot stopper in the CL, look at CL finals and the performances of Neuer, Alisson, Courtois etc. At some point we have to do something about Eddie.

Here's another question. Would Ederson have had to have made those saves if it was him in goal?

Maybe with Madrid, sure. But with us he plays a key role in not conceding chances. Did you not forget how many chances we had against Real Madrid at home because of Courtois's distribution?

That's the thing.. he's great over a season but in cup competitions in a 1 on 1 breakaway he doesn't scare anyone.

Just look back at the goal given up to Vinicius.

If he can somehow get better and save those kinds of breakaways where someone gets in behind our defense.. we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Fingers crossed he can improve in that.

We can't be perfect. We concede fewer shots than Madrid but we'll inevitably give up chances because that's the CL. Eddie is a specialist but he has to be more well rounded. We have to be able to rely on him to bail us out from time to time.

Sure, but he prevents chances happening more than others still. If our finishing hadn't been so bad in the first leg Courtois would've been largely responsible for Madrid going out.

Kind of a non-starter regardless, I can't see anyone but Ederson starting for us as long as Pep is here. Which is hopefully many, many more years to come.
