Tough on Celtic who made that a good tie.

The music playing in that kinda moment will never not make me laugh though
 
When you decide to defend your penalty box for the last 10 minutes when the tie is still all square is a bit strange.
Harsh conceding late on but it’s not a day light robbery from Bayern.
XG is 2.33 Celtic 1.12
 
Compare the keeping of Martinez with the one-on-ones to the way Sa did against Liverpool. It's like watching two different positions.
 
Without a doubt the worst I've ever seen Jota play. Atrocious 45 minutes.
 
My point was mainly the English keepers aren't very good. I think Henderson has totally eclipsed him but don't think there is as much difference between Sa and Pickford, both are bottom half keepers.

Pickford is the best English keeper by an enormous distance. Henderson isn't anywhere near him.

Enormous distance is way too far for me. There is too much I dislike about Pickford but my point was more Keeper isn't a position of strength. Pope is the only keeper who plays for a top half team and he still has issues.

Pickfords kicking is dreadful. His reflexes are exceptional but then his positioning and footwork is spotty. Henderson is better are the core parts of being a keeper for me. They have quite similar stats from a quick glance.
 
His kicking isnt dreadful so will change that but I wouldn't count it as a strength, Tony. Watch him next they are on. He moves his entire body and that's what causes his area of target to be so large.

It would be useful to see his stats pre Moyes versus so far with Moyes. He has the highest launch rating on PFR and feel that's caused by Dyche. It's kinda hard to measure his stats versus many of the others as he has gone long nearly 100 times more than the 2nd keeper (Sels)
