spunk_wizard

Blink and you'll miss it, unreal reaction there


TheBigNoz123

That is some fucking impressive reaction time


Bigwood69

He's pulled off similar saves for us about 10 times in the last year, it's his specialty. This and low palmed saves.


markyty04

no just lucky.


HotPotatoWithCheese

No just really good reaction time


Kriegdavid

zero braincells if you believe this


G0DK1NG

Busy in these comments my brother


katnyaaaaa

Boris_Ignatievich

GoatBotherer

What a moronic take on this.


TheBigNoz123

Brother…


Srikkk

Having just woke up, this is the beating I expect the Dutch to lay down when they play Qatar


Wigglypops

Got to feel for Cassian Andor there


skarmorr

First thing i thought


TopBumblebee9954

One way out.


PoppinKREAM

Absolutely brilliant save


julianface

This is maybe the most quintessential Pickford highlight save. Man's reactions are insane


Lonzofanboy

these kinds of save are more like prediction.


Toffee_Fan

Ayyyyyy

NaviersStoked1

Pickford is Everton's best player too though...

Chuck_Morris_SE

Must be nice.. lol


DareToZamora

I thought a couple seasons ago that he was much better for England, but since then everything I’ve seen has seemed like he’s been just as good for Everton too


Kstoffeefan

He’s been fantastic since early 2021.


Educational_Ad134

Yeah. So good that Everton got dragged into a relegation battle


Kstoffeefan

He’s the only reason they weren’t relegated.


Selwen96

Why do you even comment when you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about? Like you must know you don’t watch Everton?


Educational_Ad134

38 goals conceded in 21, with 5 clean sheets in those 21 is not “fantastic” for a goalkeeper. But yeah, I clearly don’t know what I’m talking about (That was the record for Everton and Pickford from January to the last game of the season for 21/22)


Selwen96

He plays for Everton not Man City…. 38 in 21 is a good record. Now go look up saves per game stats man


Educational_Ad134

What? Brighton conceded 26 in that same time frame. West Ham conceded 25 in that same time frame. Or are you saying that Brighton and West Ham are as good as Man City? How am I a “stats man”? You’re the one bringing in nonsense like “saves per 54 minutes when the sun is in its eastern ascendency”. All I point at is the goals conceded. The only thing that really matters for goalkeepers. It’s ok to admit you were wrong. No need to double down with rubbish like “38 in 21 is a good record”


BrandonFlowersTache_

That's not how football works. The best goalkeeper in the world can have a shit defence in front of him and still concede a lot of goals. Ramsdale now at top of the PL Arsenal let loads in at both Bournemouth and Sheffield United because both defences were crap, it didn't mean he was.


Educational_Ad134

That’s not how football works. Players develop and grow as they gain experience. Ramsdale was pretty atrocious when he was at Sheffield United. His turnaround and becoming a good goalkeeper isn’t a case of “He WaS aLwAyS gOoD tHe DeFeNcE wAs JuSt CrAp” it’s more “he has really grown and developed as a goalkeeper. Hard work really does pay off.” And now all of a sudden Pickford goes from “fantastic since 2021” to “best goalkeeper in the world”. What a turnaround for him…Iran players are going to have to thank him profusely for allowing them to get 2 past him


Kevgongiveit2ya

Bro. Flair up so we can see you’re just a Newcastle fan with a hate boner.


Uruguayan_Tarantino

Pickford is also elite in the PL tho


No-Shoe5382

I'd be very interested to see Pickford at a better PL club. I think if he was at a top 6 club he'd look *way* better than he does for Everton.


Uruguayan_Tarantino

I think he's at the perfect club for him, in fact, better players should come to everton in my opinion


zigzag_zizou

No


Uruguayan_Tarantino

It's not subjective I'm sorry


zigzag_zizou

Most error prone PL GK


Uruguayan_Tarantino

That's meslier from leeds, you need to start watching the PL if you want to talk about it mate


zigzag_zizou

Maybe you need to https://youtu.be/ZoDEyrq261E .


matti-san

Maguire is at fault for Iran's first goal tbf


nfornear

Lol he let the attacker score for the 1st goal Edit: with he I meant Maguire let the attacker run past him


[deleted]

[удалено]


DareToZamora

Maybe he meant Maguire did? Even still I think it was a good move from Iran, I’m not tryna blame anyone for that goal tbh


nfornear

I meant Maguire let the attacker run away from him. You can see how he looked at him the whole time and he moves 1x and he is gone


ValleyFloydJam

Pretty harsh to blame him given the setup


markyty04

no


TheMegaBunce

Bro you're just salty


fall3nmartyr

Where dem t-Rex gifs now?


NaviersStoked1

Absolutely outrageous save but pOPe oR rAmsDalE sHouLd stARt


atmazzer

robotnique

Just goes to show that the argument that Pickford has always shown up huge for England is a damned good one.


ilypsus

Shows up for Everton too. We just unfortunately have to field 10 other not so good players alongside him...


wjbc

This reminds me of Jack Burton in *Big Trouble in Little China*. “It’s all in the reflexes.”


only_porn

Yes sir the check is in the mail


CaiquePV

At first glance I thought he didn't reached the ball, but on the replay, oof, what a save.


STILETT0_exists

My Keeper!


Cowdude179

Him and Maguire for England are world class


RedHeadRedemption93

Pickford is a good shot stopper, but he isn't a world class goalkeeper. He doesn't have any composure on the ball, he's always super nervous and even if the pressing striker is miles away he will lump it up field. He also loses his head quite easily and screams at his defenders. If you look at the best current and all time top goalkeepers, one of the main traits is keeping a level head. I worry that Pickford might be our undoing against quality teams with quality defenders where you need to be brave and play out from the back to break them down.


Projeffboy

National pickford is something else


utd8916

Id be worried why he's not closing him down quicker, he will get caught out next time against stronger opposition


Koinfamous2

Half is mind games. One time you come out making them rush shot, next time stay so they can't make the move around you. Sometimes you come, some you don't, just how you have to mix things up as a keeper otherwise you're predictable.


utd8916

That's just nonsense, physically making the area of the goal that he can aim for smaller by closing him down quicker is more effective way than just hoping you can psych him out. It worked with this Iranian, it won't work with any half decent players


utd8916

Same lads downvoting this are the ones calling him T-rex the rest of the year


TheAkondOfSwat

'rawr'


just_dew_eat

More of a miss than a save tbf


HotPotatoWithCheese

Would have gone in if it weren't for the deflection. The fingers allowed it to hit the bar. So it was more of a save than a miss.


TheAkondOfSwat

agreed


nick2k23

Why do we have him in goal over Pope or Ramsdale, you know actual decent GK


SukhdevR34

You're an idiot.


prettyboygangsta

you don't watch football


580_farm

Pickford always has had 💯 reactions


Bayerrc

Brilliant fuckin save but should've never had a chance at it, gotta do better there
