Winning Lower grade competitions for teams that spent 1 billion on players is not a flex 🀣🀣🀣

Man united squad is more expensive than the whole teams in Europa league combined

Won’t even say much about Chelsea ,caciedo and enzo alone is more expensive than the whole conference league teams combined .

Have a wonderful night man

Your team was the most expensive team there in 2022 and go knocked out by Frankfurt, give it a rest

Pep made everyone looked foolish to the extent of looking for ball playing GK with lesser ball stopping abilities grin

Donnaruma and yan sommer don show us the real job of GK for this ucl 2 semis wey we watch ,just like Peter Cech and co use to do then

Na still this same yeye ball playing is one of the reason Man U kicked out de gea for onana

At the end of the day ball playing shouldn’t be the main thing of a GK but shot stopping abilities .

Inter Milan used Onana to reach champions league finals just two years back. Pep with Ederson also reached two champions league finals. Even yesterday Raya made more difficult saves than Donnarumma yet no one is praising him because his team lost. The same De gea was crap for Spain conceding goals left and right when needed. It's never straight forward like you are painting it to be.

It's not straightforward but a goal keeper who can stop shots with minimal ball playing skills trumps a goal keeper who can the ball with weak shot stopping abilities. Nobody will rate Valdez higher than Chzeh who was clueless with the ball. Degea is a better all round keeper compared to Onana.

The fact that Enrique who's more obsessed with ball playing keepers has kept faith in Dona who's very average with the ball but with elite shot stoping skills shows it all.

In my team, I'll prefer Petr Czech in 2025 to Ederson, Onana anytime, any day.

How did Raya make more difficult saves bruh?

Let me just put it simple

The first criteria of a gk should never be ball playing abilities

I am not a fan of that ball playing stuff anymore .

Your club can keep g gk with better ball playing abilities than shot stopping

The point is you can be successful with either as long as they are not error prone.

Let's compare Ederson at city and Allison at Liverpool. Ederson has more trophies, more golden gloves award, same champions league final appearance, same amount of champions league titles won.

Liverpool having the better shot stopper has not stopped city from winning more.

Penalty from Vitinha, one on one from Barcola etc Raya gP(goals prevented) is also 1.58 compared to Donnarumma 0.8.

Yeah you can be that's why we agreed that it's not straightforward. I prefer a goal keeper who is elite at shot stopping but average at ball playing. It's why I'll pick keepers like Degea, Selz, ahead of keepers like Onana, Raya. Na choice.


On yesterday's game, based on what I saw, Dona was the difference for PSG especially in the early part of the game. If Arsenal score there and make it 1:1 agg then PSG would've entered panic mode and eventually knocked out. But I respect what you saw so won't dwell on that. In addition to all this, Dona clears Raya as a goal keeper.

If a goalkeeper is average at Saving shots and very good with the ball at his feet, how would he make the difference like we saw with Inter, PSG few days ago and indeed, all legendary goalies?

You cannot be consistently synonymous with such spectacular saves if you are average at shot saving nau..abi?

The point is you can achieve the same outcome with a decent shot stopper that's elite with ball playing. Ederson has the same champions league final appearance as Allison, Inter Milan went to the same final with Onana. That should answer your question.

The goalkeepers you mentioned did not significantly influence top tier fixtures like we saw in the just concluded semis...

Valdez, as rubbish as he was, also had numerous CL semis and finals, ?
