Ederson Moraes - 2017/18 performances

Kid at work who's a united fan said he looked really good, when I pointed out the error for the first goal he even defended it.

People will criticise but forget De Gea looked suspect in his first season with United, and let a lot of long range goals in, and now look at him, easily United's best player.
 
Think I'm going to have more heart attacks with Ederson, but strangely, I feel more confident with him in goal.
 
It's to be expected that he will make some mistakes when the season starts, he's the type of keeper who commits 100% and at his age it's bound to go wrong once in a while. Unlike Bravo he's got age on his side though, so hopefully people will be patient with him.

I think he meant Jackson.

I have seen a fair few United supporters having a go at him as a sensationalist—those are the more levelheaded ones, though.
 
Ederson showed enough last night and he will be great keeper for us , he will be prone to the odd mistake due to our high defensive line formation , but i reckon if that was a competitive match with Lukatme coming towards him Ederson would have taken man ball and everything , he pulled out at the last minute because what is the point in getting clattered in a ManUtdPLC publicity stunt tour game .
 
Thought he looked good. Yes, he made a split second misjudgment coming out for the ball with the goal - but rather that than someone that hides on his line for fear of making a mistake.

Correct. I have more faith that a decisive goalkeeper can learn to make the right decisions than an indecisive goalkeeper can learn to be decisive.

I think i'll reserve judgement on him until a little further on in his City career. Much further than, for example, his first mistake on his debut in a pre season friendly.

Do you remember David Silva's debut by any chance?

I remember another keeper making a mistake in his first game ( derby as well).....we were all told he would grow...pep replaced him 2/3s of the way through the season and played Caballero instead.

Neuer has landed Bayern in the shit many times doing stuff like that, it's the price you pay for having a sweeper keeper.. Pep will encourage it more, but will criticise his judgment of Lukakus pace.

Pep may well encourage it...doesnt make it right....you give easy goals away like that in the prem league and you wont win it

Wow, the pitchfork sharpening and torch widdling started earlier than expected.

I really was naive in thinking Ederson would be given more than 90 minutes to settle.

I apologise to everyone for my sophomoric mistake.

I honestly thought you were talking about De Gea until it was evendently clear you were on about Bravo!

Who do you think we should have in goal? Name me 1 keeper who hasn't made mistakes ever...
 
I sat behind our goal first half and got a real good look at him. His presence and confidence was palpable. He didn't hesitate and stopped some good shots. He quickly rolled the ball out to the best available option outfield player after collecting it with no hesitation. He made one mistake and it led to their goal. However it's probably 50/50 that Lukaku scores there even if Eddie stays in net because he was through on goal. Couple him with a fit Kompany and with Kyle Walker and I think we've really turned a corner on our defense. Just one glaring piece missing.
 
Ederson had a good game, with one glaring error. Keepers know errors often mean goals, and they spend their entire careers trying to correct them. This one might be a blessing in disguise, much as it hurts, because this is best time to get used to the expectations he is about to face. He is 23. He is going nowhere until he drops half a dozen into his own net!

I fully expect him to be the #1 City keeper for the next decade if he is half as good at developing over the next decade as he has been for the last few years.

I remember when a new keeper was making mistake after mistake for a season and half got slated on here and in the media he is in the scum goal and one of the best goalies on Europe.
