31 | Ederson - 2024/25

How many penalty kicks is a goalkeeper expected to make ?

Save percentage is around 18% on average.

So an average keeper on penalties would have saved 6 or 7 out of 35. Ederson saved 1 of his last 35, at below 3% save success.

So basically the odds of the avengers defeating Thanos is / was better than the odds of Eddie saving a pen? Wow

If he is then we are dropping a clanger because sure as hell he is going in the summer and then we are fuck Ortega about so he will leave and then we are in a position where we have to buy 2 top keepers .

Ortega was brought in as cover and although he significantly better than the last second choice in Steffan, he isn't better than Ederson either.

I think you might have read it wrong, mate. I said penalty saves.

If that’s what you meant, others have answered since. One in 5 or 6 on average, if correct, but certainly more than 1 in 35!

Your missing the point Eddie could be better but he isn’t staying with us so why not give Ortega the run he deserves because come next season we could end up with Scott Carson the only keeper we have .

One or two would be welcome

Agreed but totally missing the point I'm afraid.

When specifically criticising somebody for " not saving penalties " if that helps

Try and get over it, your life might be enriched.

So next season we buy 2 keepers ?

Ideally one, I would say, but the remaining one might react badly if relegated to second choice. So you have raised a valid point.

If Eddie wants to leave, we will probably allow him. The question then is whether we’re satisfied with Ortega as permanent no. 1. He’s serviceable, imo, but not exceptional.

Pardon? Get over what? Are you replying to the right post?
