31 | Ederson - 2024/25

Did all he could with a poor defence in front of him, some nice saves.
 
He’s a top-class keeper and always has been. Some will love seeing him making all these saves, personally I hate it. Like all these top keepers, they get all their plaudits when they’re diving around here, there and everywhere. The likes of the donut thief and Pickford have made careers out of being the keeper behind a shite defence. I much preferred it when Eddie had fuck all to do every game and a few cranks would come on here and slag him off for conceding in a 4-1 win.
 
Like I've said, Ederson in the last year and a half has been phenomenal. He is the most improved GK in my eyes, and I criticized him plenty the years before. He has worked on his weaknesses (1v1, slow reflexes), kept his strengths (amazing positioning, very secure, superb with his feet), and he is definitely a top 3 GK for the last year and a half.
 
I believe today makes ederson's penalty record (excluding shootouts) for city to be 1 save in the last 31 penalties faced. ALL other 30 went in - not even a single one missed the target/hit the post. This stat stretches back 7 years
Update - 32 of the last 33.
 
It’s better to just assume any penalty is a goal unless Ortega is in net.

Other than that, he saved our arses a few times tonight…again!
