31 | Ederson - 2023/24

[argyle]

I love him, have done since we were first linked in pep’s first summer and he’d just taken over the 1 shirt at benfica.

But despite loving him, I can see he’s not performing at his best, and he’s still making the same mistakes he made when he arrived at 23.

Ah ok, gotcha.

No player is perfect.

I just think his best attributes more than cover his worst.

Ederson is a fantastic keeper for us. He ain’t going to save a penalty but there you go.

He probably wasn’t going to play against Newcastle but we need him back for the Arsenal game.

Pep loves him; he'll definitely play against Arsenal, fitness permitting. Is Ortega significantly worse than him at actual goalkeeping? I don't think so. But Ederson's superiority at distribution is what clinches his spot in the first team, I'm guessing. It's crucial to the way Pep wants to play. It's the reason why Joe Hart was bombed out. If you're happy with his (at times) brilliant distribution, then you have to put up with his occasional brainfart moment. And re penalties; it's just easier to accept that he won't save them.

Love the guy but that was criminally stupid today.

Along with Ake both were dozy ****s

Why -Ortega is more reliable.

I think you are incapable of objective thought on the subject, and quite possibly I am too, but one Josep Guardiola seems to agree with me, which is good enough for me.

No doubt you are correct but this would be a very quiet place if we weren't entitled to chirp up.

That’s completely fair comment mate.

I think he made a mistake, especially as it was Nunez, so it was just as likely he would fuck up the chance if Eddie had just run out with his wings spread.

But Ake is ultimately responsible for the entire situation, so Eddie gets a pass from me.

He doesn't from me. Not saying he hasn't rescued us at times but that was just fucking stupid from him today.
