Not sure anyone wants to admit this, but Ederson is a bang average keeper at shot stopping. Can’t replace the distribution… but man we could do better when it comes to more traditional keeper responsibilities.
 
Alisson would of saved that one. Love Eddy, but you can't miss balls straight at you

The other part of his game is why we have won trophies and leagues no blame for that goal today.
 
Was the goal today unsaveable? No. He could have done better. Was it a shot he Should be saving? No, it's a well struck shot with enough pace and accuracy to produce a goal. Would have been an outstanding save to keep it out, it's possible but expecting it isn't fair at all.

it's the same as expecting Rodri to smash the ball in like today everytime he picks it up in a similar area, it's just not realistic.

Maybe he would have, but he doesn't command his area as well as Ederson, he doesn't collect crosses as well, his kicking and distribution are substantially below Ederson's level, he is nervy under a strong press ( ask Jesus) has made more howlers for Liverpool than Ederson has for City and is well capable of missing shots straight at him, as many keepers are. So why are you talking about Alisson.

Have you identified a keeper who would do better without losing the unique skills that Ederson brings to our team.

Bang average? : /

Ok his shot stopping is not as good as some other top keepers but he's far from bang average. He instills calmness and trust in our defence as Ederson controls his box well, something De Gea does not, even though he's a much better one on one shot stopper than Eddie. The thing that I'm most impressed about Ederson this season is how he can keep his concentration for long periods of inactivity and then make a crucial save near the end of the game, and he's done it several times so far.

I wouldn't swap Eddie for any other keeper, would you?
