Stumbled into a Robles vs Stek thread.

Apparently.

 

[tim cahill]

The stats you posted don't confirm that point?

I was talking about Pickford and Robles. Statistically there wasn't much between them last season.

Jordan Pickford joined Everton for £30m on a five-year deal this month after a remarkable breakthrough season as Sunderland's No 1 - but is he worth the fee? Sky Sports caught up with Sam Jackson, who heads the analytics consultancy arm of football agency World in Motion/GK1, to compare Pickford's stats against the Premier League's elite stoppers.

Shot-stopping.
Pickford was the third best shot-stopper in the Premier League last season - behind only David de Gea and Hugo Lloris - according to this model.

Distribution.
Pickford once again ranked third in the Premier League last season, behind Manchester City's Claudio Bravo and Lloris - who both tend to play out from the back.
However, the England international is the best distributor among 'keepers with long distribution styles, meaning his ability to find team-mates at long range is unmatched.

Jackson is convinced he is worth every penny.
"Relative to his other attributes, Pickford definitely has room to improve aerially and racing out to intercept through balls, aspects of goalkeeping which we also analyse with data - but let's not forget he only turned 23 in March.
"He is already world class at shot-stopping and distribution and has bags of potential to improve further. A club record fee rising to £30m seems a fair price for talent like that."

Really lets look at your stats in my opinion a chasm of difference -
Stek got 4 clean sheets. Joel got 10. Stek had 1.57 saves per goal, Joel had 2.15 saves per goal. Stek had 88% claim success, Joel had 99%. It wasn't just that though, he was more vocal and dominated his box far better. The defence looked shaky with Stek behind them.

Stek is 34 and played for the mighty Fulham, whose fans laughed as they forgot he was even on their books its not because he was Dutch was it we spurned money on a waste of space!
