JasonM88 Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Very awkward situation for him. What was he meant to do? He leaves it, the ball come back in off the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Incredible error but even the best make them. If he leaves it then it’ll go over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityCiderEd Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Sadly I feel there is always that one big mistake in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as others have said even the best make mistakes. They just forget them easily!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 I rate Pickford but he has 1-2 mistakes per game in him. Not sure about him going forward as England #1 problem is I am not sure who takes it from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamski Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Really!!!!!!! not exactly known for his errors and easily the most reliable and consistent English keeper for a long while. He’s very young and will learn from his mistakes. Amazing hype from some... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Mistakes and costly mistakes are different things. A keeper kicking the ball down field where an opponent gets too first is not a mistake if it is accurate enough to give a team mate a chance to win it but if it goes straight out of touch or is too far from a team mate that is a mistake by definition. Coming for a cross you can’t get to is a mistake but does not necessarily cost a goal. Two mistakes a game is not that bad and certainly is true for Pickford !!

He always seems to have a rush of blood and does something daft. Guess he is young enough to improve.

True just think he could limit the damage at times. Again still quite young for a keeper so perhaps he has time to get rid of that from his game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Too top keeper IMHO his odd moments come as a result of his slight ecentricticy that also provides jaw dropping saves Reminds me of Gazza in his mannerisms Still young and learning All keepers make errors , as do all players The best make the fewest , Seaman and Shilton were probably as ‘reliable’ as I’ve ever seen yet we can all recall at least one or two howlers from even them Many will disagree but I don’t think Pickford is far behind De Gea , who looked shaky at United initially, give Pickford another couple of years to grow......he will be up there with any of them IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 A lot of criticism here but how many people have actually played as a keeper? I ask because in that situation (the ball coming down on such an angle) it doesn't matter how much training you do you cannot read where that ball is going to go. People saying "just tip it over and take the corner", it sounds simple but when it comes down like that it's very difficult to get your hand over the bar at the precise moment you need to and add the direction to the ball. It was just a very fortunate fall for Liverpool and an absolute nightmare for Pickford, I certainly wouldn't hold it against him, it was just even more unfortunate based on the time and it being a derby game.

It's a horrendous mistake. He could easily just help that over the bar. Imagine the comments on here if our keeper did that against Rovers in the 96th minute!

You try reading that trajectory when you're under it, then add the timing and ability to get your hand above the bar and push it behind. Just because he plays in the Prem that doesn't instantly give him something any other human being has. Having played as a keeper and trained with many keepers I can tell you that most keepers would take 5 extra shots against them than have to deal with that situation as it's instantly unpredictable and only ever made simple with hindsight.
