Would you really like to replace him? Or you think he needs to improve. I don't think we can make him no.2 now, but if we actually got a senior GK to challenge him, it might help, as I think he realises that Stek and Virginia are not realistic. As we progress into the top 6 next year or the year after, we will need the type of squad which has 2 proper keepers. At that time an old master, like a Cech type keeper (Not him, but you know what i mean) might become available, or a Begovic, Ospina, Burnley have got 3 keepers..etc

I'd literally take any GK with PL experience over him.
 
Looking at T-How’s stats now. His last two seasons here were basicly on par with Pickfords stats, and most of us saw him as obviously nearing finished when his form dipped after that WC. In Howards worst season for us, he conceded 44 in 32 games. Thats better than any senior season Pickford’s ever had.
Still, Howard was ‘always not good enough’, but Picky is world class.
Now, lets blame all our other players, right? Jordan constantly being bad no matter whos in front of him doesnt matter, I guess.

Jesus wept!

You can't compare goals conceded when playing in completely different teams, using completely different playing styles and playing against completely different opposition players.

Like just stop what you're doing and go to another thread.

You cant get a clear picture no, and stats doesnt tell the full story. But it gives you an idea of how a player is performing and in Jordans case, its not good news.
Based on ‘you cant compare’-logic, we can never compare any players, and thats silly. No two games are the same, no team plays the same every game, no league is the same every year, its all developing. I see nothing wrong with comparing Gomes with Arteta, Walcott to Mirallas, Pickford to T-How, and see how they weight up to each other. The simplest way to do it -> stats.

I never said he's playing well just goals conceded isn't just a goalkeeper's priority - likewise neither is scoring. Goal involvement per mins on the pitch is easier to compare than goals conceded.

Howard always had pretty decent GA stats but he also wasn't 24.

I trust my eyes rather than stats and comparing old and current players.

(Arteta is different league to Gomes though.)

You are ofc right, but those stats are a little more work. Like I said, the stats i posted doesnt tell the full story, and I think everyone on a football forum knows that.

He was 27 I think, but played almost a full season for united when he was 23/24. Did okey.

The only question is who he will blame tomorrow.

What an abysmal buy this clown was. £30m!!!

Yeah but we could easily sell him for more and besides, after his World Cup heroics, it raised Evertons profile in the eyes of the world, bargain really
