2025/26 David Moyes

rio ferdinand and Phil Jagielka have both had to put the gloves on in a match and have both made penalty saves. In such a situation, do you want your expanded bench to have the final straw GK to come on for you or is risking it all for the sake of including some 20 year old sort of midfielder that likely wont play unless we're 4-0 up.
With the state of the dead ball tactics currently, and the rushing of goal keepers during the dead ball deliveries, I can see a GK injured in a game this season.
I imagine statistics over the entirety of the Premier League will show that the chances of a keeper going off injured is highly, highly unlikely. Glad Moyes has at least two on the bench 'just in case' though.
