Goalkeepers

So what would you want Ederson to do there? Literally every goalkeeper on earth would've conceded there. Stop talking bullshit please Ederson is top 3 GK in the world rn.

That isn't true, it was a rash dash out for both goals.

He isn't to blame for the initial mistake and the chance creation but it is horrible goalkeeping, Bravo would have been hung drawn and quartered for it.

It made it easy for the scorer both times, stand up, make yourself big, put some doubt in the strikers' mind as you haven't sold yourself early.

He has done it multiple times this season and the ball keeps hitting the net, he is world class with his feet but he isn't a world class goalkeeper, top 3 come on now, take those blue tints off.

He’s not our biggest problem. But the great keepers, Schmeichal , Buffon , Shilton etc would make great saves in tight games. Ederson is a decent keeper but not exceptionable.

This. Nothing more than average at shot stopping. His talent was in his distribution but that has been nullified now.

 

[argyle]

What's happened to his distribution which was his strong point???

 

[bluealf]

Joe was fucked off because he wouldn't save everything he was supposed to and on top of it was mediocre in every other department. Career since has proved it.

Yes, it was a sad decline and who really knows why?

He was a great goalkeeper for us, touching world class for 3 seasons but cracks appeared, shots low to the left, getting hyped up before games, almost manic.

That super injunction was the start of the fall and he has never really recovered, Hart should be just hitting his prime right now, not being fucked off from shite clubs like Burnley.

Nope, the rest of the team isn't functioning as it should. In closing down, in creating chances, and converting chances. If he kept a clean sheet today, we still draw 0-0 because the rest of the team is not working. Look at our goals scored for the season.

Score goals, you take control of the game.

The way we play as a whole exposes Ederson, sometimes he makes mistakes, it's natural. At the moment the mistakes cost us more because the team isn't performing well.

Conceding a goal meant more pressure on our players due to the game plan, and Tottenham will continue their game plan cause it is based on counter attack. So, it is very important for the goalkeeper to keep clean sheet in these types of games.

And that is exactly what i said (but not as many words)....totally agree bluealf !!

well maybe the rest of the team should stop giving away easy chances as well, there's a thought.

What does our Goalkeeping coach get paid to do ??

Shoot at the net its a goal....its not just Ederson it goes back to Bravo

Joe Hart would have stopped more shots meaning more points than the assists either keeper have made to get us points !!

You could say what does any of our coaching staff do. Same shit for 18 months, woeful up front, keepers who can’t make a save and sideways passing

 

[kanovic]

If he stayed on his line with Cancelo covering across he would have had to dive forward to stop that sh!t shot

That’s not how you play as a keeper. You try to go towards the ball to make the goal as small as possible. If cancelo doesn’t get there guess what it’s a goal again. He was in no mans land and they got lucky it went through this legs. His job was to make himself as big as possible and he tried..

Do you think Schmeichel would have let it go through him ?? You go out if there's no defenders helping and guess what, he was running away from the net with Cancelo chasing him and had to shoot before he got too wide so Ederson made his mind up and didn't allow Cancelo time to get a tackle in !!
