2020/21 Jordan Pickford

[Walken]

Pickford must be dragged down regardless, even to the extent of some clown claiming he should have saved the Palace goal. Don't get me wrong, I would like him replaced, but some go to extremes and that is the way it is. Anyway, neither Everton goal should have happened as their goalie ought to have saved DCL's effort and it was never a penalty. 1-0 to Palace then. I am delighted it went our way though. The gods are with us for a change. Let us hope the gods are still with us on derby day.

We create far far more chances this season, you are going to get more pens and scuffed goals because of that.

How do you know? He's never off the bench!

He spent the back end of last season at struggling Huddersfield says it all

 

[Nymzee]

Nothing he could do with their goal, nothing to do elsewhere in the match, caught one ball (almost fell off my chair) and cut the star jumping out please.

After researching Pickford's family tree, all is explained..

And now we are back to “it’s ok that Pickford doesn’t make any saves anymore because they are really really hard shots”

better keepers save the harder chances. If we accept mediocrity then we won’t ever win anything as a club

Pickford made some big saves against Tottenham to keep us in it

 

[Wayno]

He wasn’t ‘at fault’ for their goal yesterday, like he didn’t make a mistake.

But was it saveable? I think so. A better keeper saves it and it isn’t looked at as a particularly memorable save imo

 

[Yarrgh]

Apart from pick the ball out of the back of the net, I didn't really notice Cap'n Pugwash yesterday.

 

[The binman chronicles]

As you know I'm not one for going overboard but if he had of kept a few more clean sheets we would have been top. Thanks Jordan for costing us the three game title.

Thing is, he hasn't actually cost is points yet this season. Perhaps we should wait with the axe until he is costing points instead of winning is points?

I'm not his biggest fan but I do think he is a big game player who has real trouble focusing if he's not constantly kept awake

Any keeper saving that is saving it by pure luck.

A header like that is beyond you before you even see it. Zero chance of stopping it bar it randomly hitting you.

Sad to see his familys geenes havent evolved with relation to arm length.

 

[Simon Buttle]

Not quite sure what that star jump thing he did was all about, ball was going out anyway.

 

[EnglishRoundabout]

When I first saw Pickford in Everton colours, he exuded confidence. He had a great left foot and just looked like a proper keeper.
He has gone backwards alarmingly now. He reminds me of the the calamitous Scottish goalkeepers of the 70’s....always provided us with a laugh when watching the Scottish league highlights!!
We are in a pickle with our keepers now. Other team’s strikers are shooting on sight knowing Pickford is hit or miss, and Carlo isn’t able to trust our sub keepers in a premier league game.
It is plainly apparent, a keeper with something about him needs to be signed to put severe pressure on Pickford.
What about the Brighton keeper? Or McCarthy of Southampton? Both sound, big blokes....both have a big presence.....and at the minute, both ahead of Pickford as regards performers in the premiership.

Not many games bigger than the derby for Everton

It's like a nervous reaction similar to when electrodes are attached to a dead frog and the legs jerk.
