Jordan Pickford 10:16 - Jun 13 with 2724 views | hughesy2013 | 30 million for a keeper who has hardly played in the prem...transfers these days are going to wreck this beautiful game! If he's worth 30 how much de gea worth? | | | | |
Jordan Pickford on 10:21 - Jun 13 with 2717 views | Dr_Winston | He's obviously a decent young talent. Not sure if he's as good as all that yet though. It's not hard for goalkeepers to stand out in piss poor sides because of all the extra work that they have to do. Just look at the plaudits the deeply average David Marshall got when Cardiff had their one season in the sun. | |

Jordan Pickford on 11:09 - Jun 13 with 2594 views | Dr_Winston | Kinda puts the mooted fees for Siggy in perspective mind. We'd be absolute f*cking idiots to accept less than £35m. Preferably a lot more. | |

Jordan Pickford on 11:25 - Jun 13 with 2557 views | yescomeon | He'll get better with game time. De Gea was a shambling mess when he first arrived. Look at him now. If Pickford goes on to be their first choice for the next 10 years then its a great signing in today's market. | |

Jordan Pickford on 11:34 - Jun 13 with 2531 views | yescomeon | He was doing that at what 19 too? I'm not saying Pickford is better or anything like that. But if you have £30m to spend and you see a player available that can potentially shore up a key position for maybe 10 seasons or more and is home grown to boot then why not. I know it's a gamble but the reward is huge. | |

Jordan Pickford on 12:51 - Jun 13 with 2374 views | nantywatcher | great shot stopper - truly awful ball distribution | | | |
Jordan Pickford on 13:18 - Jun 13 with 2296 views | karnataka | You can coach ball distribution but good shot stopping is mostly instinctive so if you have that already built in you just need good coaches to help you sharpen up on positioning, when to stand and when to close down, etc. Pickford has the raw ingredients needed to become a top keeper. Doesn't mean he will but time will tell. | | | |
Jordan Pickford on 17:07 - Jun 13 with 2073 views | swanforthemoney | made a lot of good saves for Sunderland. Playing for a better club, he'll have less to do and needs to cut out the errors. 30 mills is a lot to pay, possibly worth it if you have deep pockets. I'm not sure he quite massive enough to be a very top drawer keeper. I think Jack Butland will turn out to be the higher regarded English keeper. | |

Jordan Pickford on 19:15 - Jun 13 with 1965 views | hobo | Pickford is 23, nowhere near 19! United signed De Gea when he was 20, | | | |
Jordan Pickford on 21:42 - Jun 13 with 1874 views | Cooperman | It's probably £15m up front with the rest to follow in performance based instalments. | |
