Pickford or Howard?

[Osamabindiesel]

Pickford hasn’t started the season that well for us like but let’s not get misty eyed guys.

A lot people make out Howard was a lot worse than he was but he was turbo garbage in his last 2/3 seasons.

He is American, so he never stood a chance in the end. Pickford still has a lot to prove, but he is REALLY young for a keeper.

But what about his goalscoring record ?

He scores more than Tosun in training. Probs.

Pickford in a few years will be miles better then Howard was or even could of been

Wait until Pickford is 26 then judge.

Big Nev in his prime was quite slim...what's your point?

Erm I was just trying to get out of it as you clearly know more about goalkeeper heights than me.

@mikeh72 - correct me if I’m wrong but this was when Nasri managed to lob our goalkeeper when inside his own 6 yard box wasn’t it?

Yes it was, the same game Kolarov scored from behind the goal.

Great goalie

 

[fitzyefc]

Both are distinctly average.

Howard however cost us a final and 2 anfield derbies with his [Poor language removed] ups

 

[MikeH72]

HAHAHAHAHA. He saved 11 out of 35 penalties faced for us - not including a couple of others in shoot outs - if you think that's pretty poor you're setting quite astonishing standards.

What? No he didn’t.

I voted but this should be done in 3 years time & not now.

Howard no question, unfortunately his last 2 seasons when he turned into starjump nob will cloud people's memory

His star jumping phase was 2009-2013 anyway like. In his last two seasons he couldn’t get his feet off the ground.
