It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

One bad game does not absolve the other he did in this season, very unfortunate the timing was not at the right time in important semi final match but he only just human.

You're asking the impossible wanting a backup as close in the quality as Ederson our main keeper, for the backup he the best we can get that willing to play a second GK where he could play elsewhere as main starter keeper.

Unless you want our club to pull PSG, paying absurd amount of money just to get a world class keeper as backup then forget it. There's more priority position that need to be strengthened first.
Totally agree. Its futile comparing ANYONE with Ederson. No other keeper, currently, is able to do what he does with the ball. There are no others like him. He has the skillset of a top midfielder. He has the awareness to know where the pass is before he's received the ball, coupled with the coolness of mind and ability pass the ball better than 99% of outfield players.

He's Zidane in net. He's only in there cos he's a lazy bastard and doesnt want to run.
 
His passing isn’t an issue, mistakes are the issue. His accuracy with the ball has always been 80-90% since he joined the CFG. Conceeding unnecessarily is an issue. No problem with him as a backup if he wants more game time though no problem with that either. I’m sure we’ll find a stopgap. Trafford probably, bazunu will be loaned out again or sold depending on the contract renewal.
given time, he's assured with his passing. Under press he and all the others fall apart as they dont have the composure and ability to see the pass before they get the ball like Ederson. You can coach passing but its harder to coach passing under pressure, you almost need a goalie to train as an outfielder for a while in their development

Gone are the days of the goalie only going in net cos they're shit at football
 
I think Alvarez will be playing a lot more than we think next season. Watched a brilliant video where they were talking to a person that knows Argentinian football and River plate. Take aways from that video are

. He's not a new Aguero he's more of a Thomas Muller.

. He can play anywhere across the front three, Left, Right, False 9, Striker, CAM

. He's a European style striker, playing in Argentina. His style of play is more European.

. He drops deep to link up play a lot, works his socks off to try and get the ball. Not a fox in the box, more of a pull the defenders out of position to create space. Reads the play

Weakness, hes very bad in the air. He's not good as a aeriel threat

Strengths, Finishing, Vision, Intelligence

Alvarez and Haaland are really going to compliment each other. Could be like Lewandowski and Muller at Bayern.
"Hi Erling. Your hair looks super awesome today" "Thanks Julian. You are just so beautiful inside and out"

I agree - they are going to really really compliment each other.

Isn't Erling shit at headers too?

And he saves the odd shot now and then.
