Pickfords' Save

[Mors]

This deserves it's own thread, fuck about.




Although it might have been going wide:




Regardless though.

 

[Oliver Twist]

Wasn't it going wide, anyway? And then they scored from the resulting corner. The dude can't catch a break.

 

[Hansern]

Good save from someone with T-Rex arms

 

[Rosco]

It was a stunning save, cracker of a shot too

haha.

Going wide anyway.

And shows that he should have tried using the correct arm against Belgium.

was great, though yeah.

 

[Oliver Twist]

It was amazing how tiny the 'keepers looked last night in the shootout, compared to the Croatia-Denmark shootout where both 'keepers looked fucking huge in goal.

"It's going wide"

The famous last thoughts of many a goalkeeper...

It's actually a bit surprising to see some national pride here.

Think that's what winning does...

Fucking LOL

It was a fantastic save and he's a very good young keeper. Given where we're at, I'd love a bit of that.

We've got Belgium's number two and Germany's....er........well, maybe number four?

But then Germany is full of boss keepers, as any fule kno

Being Englands nr 1 goalkeeper in the WC isnt exactly the biggest achievement.
And after having watched Pickford for Everton this season I wouldnt want to sign him, even though some seem to have changed their minds after one great save.

The Bundesliga have several boss goalkeepers.

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

Not sure it was going wide. It was a fucking brilliant save. No two ways about it.

 

[tombrown]

Good save. But the resulting corner led to a goal, so ultimately a meaningless good save

A keeper who’s sky high on confidence after that save plus penalties is a better one to have than one that’s now. It might turn out to be important.

 

[hmmmmm1]

He is slow and ponderous with the ball at his feet. He can kick the ball long though

 

[Woland]

Everton now have the best goalkeeping coach on earth. I'd expect him to improve dramatically over the season

 

[Hansern]

It didnt help the Watford and Hull goalkeepers mind. Oblak, Courtois and De Gea were all insanely talented.
Pickford is, well, Pickford.
