But Pickford is dodgy as fuck at that level - very reminiscent of Burge IMO. Good shotshopper but makes massive howlers far too often. Ederson however I will give you - good with his feet but a quality keeper too.
But the main reason for errors is lack of concentration. And the main reason those never get rectified in training is arrogance. That's why he's made the same mistakes for the last few years.

He's England's No.1. and had a great World Cup so he can't be that bad. As shown when he was linked with a move to Bayern during that summer. I sense he's probably had a 'hangover' from the competition - as many players are susceptible to. You only have to look at Trippier's form this season to prove that. Granted he's been guilty of the odd mistake throughout his career but you can't question his quality at that level off one poor season. He was terrific the season before last and proved his worth in a very poor Sunderland team the season before that.
Playing it out from the back is all well and good, but what's the point if you don't have decent ball players in midfield to take it on and link up with the forwards? We're missing a player or two in the Maddison mould.
