Checko Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 (edited) 5 hours ago, David Edgar said: Statistically one of the top top goalkeepers for saves in Europe this season. Nick Nope. Statistically over the last year, the first half of which he was injured, so basically this year, in the top 5 leagues in Europe: 1. he's the 87th % for PsXg-GA (post shots expected goals minus goals allowed) [concedes less than you'd expect based on the chances - some of this may be down to luck eg if you've played Darwin Nunez twice already] 2. 93rd % for crosses stopped % [pretty easily career high so will probably come down a bit] 3. 89th % for defensive actions outside of penalty area [charging out, sweeping and clattering fools - he's always very high on this] https://fbref.com/en/players/4b40d9ca/scout/365_m1/Nick-Pope-Scouting-Report Basically Nick Pope's a really good goalkeeper. Yes it would be lovely if he was decent with the ball at his feet (though for some reason I find myself a bit less terrified this year) and that probably stops him being a really great goalkeeper, but he's still very good at the most fundamental parts of goalkeepering. Plus he's a good lad and fucking massive. He also seems to be in the 9th % for passes atttempted per 90 and 99th % for throws attempted. So I don't think the throwiness is a particularly new thing. He can javelin it though. Love a quick throw out. Edited December 6 by Checko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 What did he do wrong apart from trying to force it at the end? Which was a clown show moment and lucky not to get punished. Something he wouldn’t usually try and do as it’s miles out of his comfort zone and his actual ability level Superb save from that deflected shot/cross. Not much chance with the goals.

Ronaldo Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 He’s getting beaten to his left too much and he’s terrible on the ball. He isn’t a huge concern yet but he will need replacing in the next 2 seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 I think GK is the third biggest upgrade we can make after right wing and CB now. He has a serious weakness to his left and we all know about his distribution. There is a reason he doesn’t get a look in for England. All good teams have keepers they can pass to without it destroying their possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted Thursday at 15:59 Share Posted Thursday at 15:59 I think it’s more that we’ll go back to even bigger gaps between all the lines again. As Dubravka isn’t confident coming out and sweeping up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted Thursday at 17:44 Share Posted Thursday at 17:44 Think I'd rather see the Greek lad Vlachi-whats-is-name ahead of Dubravka if it's true. Pope has not been great lately anyway. Maybe it wouldn't be that big a blow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
