Ederson, in the nicest possible way, is a total fucking nutter.

But you don’t achieve historical feats with ordinary people and players who are “good enough”.

The best way I can describe him is that he’s like one of those mountain climbers that summit sheer rock faces without a harness.

That’s the kind of mentality we need though. We don’t need players who think that they will succeed. We need players who know that they won’t fail.

Those players are like gold dust but we have three of them in Eddie, KDB and Haaland. It would be ridiculous to take that out of the team and it’s one of the reasons all three play every week.

For me, guys like these are part of the team’s heart and soul.

Don't really understand the nervousness around Ederson. He's not as good as he was between 2017 and 2019 in terms of his reflexes but he's still the best in the league at what he brings to City and he's one of only a few goalkeepers worldwide who plays two positions at once (GK and CB).

I was reading his old thread in the transfer forum (quiet work day...), and I saw this post:

Benfica supporter here, let me be as unbiased as I can.

Ederson is a tremendous goalie with a great field presence. He oozes confidence and that trespasses to the rest of the team, especially the defense. However, for all the praise he is receiving and what is being said in the media, footwork is not his strongest characteristic. I don't know where people first got this idea from. He has an outrageously long kick, and great accuracy, but I never felt like he was that good at working with the ball at his feet near the area, or under pressure for that matter. Seldom does he chose to distribute to the players close to him - on thing Guardiola will have to work on, should he sign for you, is fighting Ederson's urge to kick the ball away.

Weird reading that considering his distribution standards over the years. Guess Pep did a better job than we realised.

Let me help........he takes unnecessary risks and has far too many rushes of blood,and he has never learnt from his mistakes......which makes another similar episode a very realistic occurrence.

Best keeper in the world for how we play. Some folk need to give their head a wobble.

Love Eddie but yeah those moments when he rushes out of goal when our defenders have it covered cause me to stop breathing.

Let’s face it, Eddie is arguably out best keeper of the modern era, occasional lack of communication, with Phillips a couple of weeks ago and with Dias yesterday, but in general he is a very key part of our recent success. Keepers this days are either heroes or villains, nothing in between. His recovery from the cock-up with Dias was brilliant and saved a probable equaliser but I sometimes wonder whether he communicates with his defenders, too many times I have seen defender and keeper going for the same ball. Shout “mine” please.

Surely he goes down as our best ever with the amount of trophies we’ve won.

If that was true, it isn’t, if it was he wouldn’t still be first choice and with no plans to replace him. How many of these ‘mistakes have led to goals? Less than most keepers I pretty sure.

‘Let me help’!

The fact you think the risks he takes are ‘unnecessary’ says everything.

Don’t beat yourself up, mate. I don’t get decorative art. You don’t get Ederson. We all have our Achilles heels. All our brains are wired differently. No shame in that.

True,and clearly the 'unnecessary' comment has confused your blinkered brain.

The positives still far out weigh the negatives in our set up,i don't have issue with that and obviously neither does Pep......but to deny those negatives exist,and are not a problem,is very much your achilles not mine.

The question was posed as to why some supporters have an issue with his goalkeeping........i have provided an honest answer......you throwing your toys,because you don't like it,is irrelevant.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

That statement simply does not remotely accord with your posting output on the subject. For example:

Get Ortega in goal,he's far more consistent and reliable and I strongly suspect our defence has more faith in him.
Ederson is unpredictable and he quite often causes confusion,he will never change.

So you plainly do have ‘an issue with that’, despite what you seem to tell yourself and the rest of the board, and somewhat undermines your claim about providing an ‘honest answer’.

You might want to consider the constistancy of your output on a particular subject before calling others ‘blinkered’ around it.

Of course it does,dont be a whopper......as i have maintained,i have issue with his calamaties,usually unnecessary as a result of his lack of composure and/or focus.Ive called him a clown on numerous occasions too.....that's because he acts like one with his antics.

Dress it up all you want in your need to be right,because i'm not so needy or arsed.

Not quite sure how pointing out the manifest inconsistency of your own posts (which the above post only adds to) is dressing anything up.

Anyway, given you’re neither needy nor arsed, I’ll assume this post is the final word on the matter.

Anyone have the stats for how many first shots on target that Ederson let's in? He has to be challenging Claudio Bravo this season.
