Guaranteed to have his best performance when we meet.
Quote from: Northants Nomad on November 03, 2023, 06:46:28 pmGuaranteed to have his best performance when we meet.We will be in The FA Cup 3rd round won’t we on January 6th. ( He says hopefully ) so the Harrogate game will be re arranged. His loan is until 31st Dec so unless it is extended he might not play against us anyway.If he does he will have a blinder, that’s guaranteed. Personally I think he was no where near as bad as some of our supporters made him out to be. Yes he dropped a few clangers but let’s face it with that defence and midfield in front of him how many goalkeepers would look good. He gained us more points than he gave away last season. There were quite a number of games where he was outstanding. Some people have very short memories.His distribution was awful but I put that down mainly to what Schofield was telling him to do. He wasn’t allowed to use his own brain and kick it long when the high press was used on us.

He let in 7.9 more than would be expected from the shots he faced (FotMob).So he cost us points for sure.

Pickford would have made errors playing in our team.XG means nothing to me. I use my eyes and I know what i saw. You can use statistics to as much as you like but usually they can be very misleading. You can have 80% possession in a football match have 25 shots on goal, don’t score and the opposition have 20% possession and 2 shots on goal and they win 2-0

Just because a keepers asked to make saves doesn't mean he's going to make mistakes.
