If honest I was happy to stick with Robles, he had proven himself but we knew there would be mistakes.
I have been impressed with Pickford and most probably the best signing RK has brought in.
I have noticed his kicking can be erratic, but in defence to him he has no width to aim at so hitting balls into crowded areas.

As for mistakes, he will make them but like Robles we may need to preserve to see the best of him

He looks ok. I have to ask though whether we needed to spend a record £34M on him.

Totally agree, Robles looked a very competent keeper and I felt confident with him. I just think RK wanted to strip Martinez's squad to the bones and build his own...thing is his squad isn't what we all expected.

The fee I do question is Sigurdson, surely that should of gone towards a goal scoring forward

Whatever the fee he’s still definitely an upgrade on Robles.
