Point on his distribution: it has been our tactic since Day 1 that, whenever he has the ball, we park our striker on the full back and Ryan aims for him, attempting to take their CB out of the equation. He has got some stick for kicking it into touch a few times (didn't happen once yesterday as...

Picture of him mingling with fans on club's twitter account, so we'll give him BOD on this occasion. Gutted his shot wasn't a yard to the right. Was a decent hit and would have sealed it.

2 things to say. They've both been said before, but they're about to get said again. 1) He's only 25. Pickford is seen as a 'young' goalkeeper, and he's 23. Mark Schwarzer commented how much our Maty has improved this season, if he keeps on improving at this rate and we keep him for 8-10 years...

I like watching goalkeepers warm up. Getting the ball absolutely leathered at them from 4 yards away and catching it every time. Would love to see a random bloke try it, I'd wear every one straight in the face. Reactions are insane. Some of Ryan's saves in the warm-up were incredible.

That was a brilliant save. Really amazing reactions. Was getting some stick around me for his kicking, but had clearly been given a strategy to target the full backs, Yedlin in particular.

Before the game started, I didn't know he was going to play well and keep a clean sheet. And when you suspect a guys down on confidence, it's not great to see him kicking the post in frustration in the warm up and the coach having to walk him to the dressing room giving him a cuddle. But as...

Oi! Your selective quoting makes my comment seem less balanced than it was! Still trying to work out what's the exception and what's the rule with him. If I hadn't seen the Leicester and Madrid fumbles (not fussed by the Dunk og), I'd say he's the perfect signing for us. Few more comfortable...

Do agree with all the above. He dropped some absolute clangers in the warm up though. Ben Roberts had to walk him off with his arm round him giving him a pep talk. Not exactly what you want to see 15 minutes before kick off - but as you say, really solid and comfortable when it mattered.
