      The more I see this keeper the more I don't want him, Belgium had only 3 shots on target yesterday and he let in 2, I find him very underwhelming

      Neither of which he had a chance with, stats can be very misleading

      True. And others bring up conceding 7 against us..I'm pretty sure he had little to no chance with any of the goals.

      but only when we're talking about other goalies, right? because when we talk about Liverpool goalies suddenly a stat like save percentage is a key one

      He’s a class GK.

      Just because he had an average WC doesn’t mean he’s poor. Baros, Diao, Diouf all looked class in international competition. You can hardly judge a player in a competition that doesn’t require some sort of consistency. Heck even Messi wasn’t great this WC.

      He shouldn’t be valued at 70m or 80m but it doesn’t mean he isn’t an upgrade on Karius. He is, Roma fans rave about him all single day.

      Don’t know they were raving about him after we played them.

      And?

      You can't judge a player in competitions when consistency is non existent. I live in Italy, and I sometimes watch games with a lot of Seria A supporters and I have yet to meet a Roma fan who told me Becker is an ''average'' keeper. I've also watched him in the Seria A and always looked like a really top goalkeeper. He would also suit us better than Oblak because Becker is more of a Reina type who would play the ball better out from the back. Barthez looked world class in the 98 WC yet he was a dodgy as f*ck goalkeeper.

      He might not be a 70 or 80m quid GK but there is a reason why he is always ahead of Ederson as Brazil's number 1 and Ederson is a really good GK too.

      Having read about the "concussion" theory indeed is being used by the gaffer himself as the possible explanation for Loz' howlers in that game (I don't know how much he believes it himself to be honest), then citing Beckenbauer, then Stevie G's comment also was added to the mix, I don't see Alisson coming to us this season. I do think we're talking bollocks here...

      We're not spending 80 mil on a keeper. At that amount it's just ridiculous.

      Why not spend £80m on a keeper?

      to be fair, the best keeper in the league is less than half of that and he's better than Alisson. Only Buffon in his prime quality should be 80m... Alisson looks average.

      Pickford was 25m and that includes the English premium.

      Cos it's quite obvious if we were going to buy one, we'd have bought one by now!!

      Don't know if it's being certain, or just joining the dots and being realistic.

      Fair enough but if prices are now hyper inflated then why in principle should a keeper not cost as much as a striker or a Centre back, it doesn't make sense to me because a goalkeeper is one of the most important positions in any team and is our major source of weakness for years now.

      Pickford actually looks a frickin bargain based on this WC, I've been really impressed with him. He attacks crosses, his distribution and comfort on the ball is outstanding and he has made some remarkable saves. I can't see him at Everton for more than 12 months. I think we bought the wrong Sunderland goalkeeper.

      We only get the extra £5 if he kicks the sh*t out of John Achterberg on his first day of training.
