2018/19 Jordan Pickford

[bring the ghost on]

Think he will leave in the summer along with one or two other better plays in the squad.

He's on a big contract for us and I can't see anyone agreeing to fork out the £30m we paid for him, can you?

Is this not how Rodwell was so highly thought of? He developed faster than his peers, so really stood out until they all caught up?

Yes it was, but his career died when he went chasing after money, which seemingly has all his career has ever been about.

Only on GOT. Everton lose 3-2 to Millwall reserves after only having three shots on target in 96 mins while playing the most awful football imaginable during that time and some people's first reaction is to blame the goalkeeper!

There’s no way he’s going to win that ball. If he rushes out after they’ve won the first ball outside the area then he’s not getting to it and he looks 1000x worse.

If he anticipates it after the first ball it is easily sorted.
Its only 8/9 yards out and in the air , Pickford is 4/5 yds off his line , a couple of steps he can punch that clear with ease.
As I said it looks as though he is instructed to stay on his line.
As it was he was caught in no mans land and could/ should have anticipated it.
I'm not blaming him as i dont know how he is being coached or the tactics he is given.
But that headed goal was avoidable.

Not even half. He's fundamentally flawed.

 

[Izzy1878]

The most polarising player we have. He's like pineapple on a pizza.

Like trying to build a house on quick sand....that's the only fitting analogy to describe how difficult it is for this team to settle down defensively with that clown in goal.

I doubt there's a defender in this league who'd be willing to play in front of that feller. He is a defender's nightmare. Literally the first task to do in order to get us stabilised is to drop him and then sell him in the summer.

I wish Pickford was given a match day off.

Remember when people were rating him at 100m in the summer after the world cup lol.

Kneejerk

You’re gonna make yourself ill . Vent your spleen at someone/something else . At least for ten minutes

Bit like you who has every match day off in your armchair

Don't agree with that. He was a superb prospect but very injury prone. When City made us an offer for somebody we knew would have half his time on the sick bed, we snapped their hands off.

Dave...I am expecting to see comments in the press soon, instigated by his agent, about how Pickford “needs to get away from Everton, for the sake if his England career” or sommat like that.

Because his England place must be in jeopardy at the moment and the blame for his current travails will need to be deflected elsewhere.
