I'd be slightly worried about the effect on Pickford of being thrown into such a pressure situation. Could be the making of the lad but any flaws will be ruthlessly exposed and could badly hinder his development. If Mannone keeps his form level as high as last night then he has to be first choice for the remainder of the season imo.
Agree with the last bit. As of now it's Vito's to lose. However I don't worry too much about Pickford and his mental strength. By all accounts that's one of his best features.
 
I would have sold one of them in the summer - didn't make sense to have both Mannone and Pantilimon at the club.
True but we needed to get Pickford out on loan for his development. With a number of good young keepers we should just punt everyone other than Pickford and the young'uns IMO. Much better use of our wages
 
Same, hopefully the likes of Gooch and Beadling will get a chance as well
The difference being is we have done the right thing and sent Pickford out to play 100 games . The PL is not a place to learn

Top class that.....and his save from Benteke near the end was also excellent.....he left it till the very last second and gave Benteke very little to aim at.
Problem is he is just as likely to make a key error

Agree Pickford needed to go out but I'm sure there would have been cheaper options - both Pants and Manonne will be on decent wedge and you can only play one keeper so what we needed was someone to cover for injuries - hell we've lasted 10 years without a left back
