banduan Brice Samba was Forest GK for a while in the Championship. Despite his recent France caps, I think he showed that kind of level yesterday.

Does better when under less pressure, he needs to improve against teams who press us though.

KingslandBarge

JazzG Agreed. I do recall so far seeing various GKs like Allison and Ederson pressed into some really bad errors this season. Can't be easy, and felt Ramsdale was a bit singled out last weekend.

QuincyAbeyie

Because his mistake was absolutely awful.

KingslandBarge

Ok. I don't mean by Arsenal fans by the way, but specifically singled out by Sky sports and journalists to perpetuate their fabricated narrative around him, when I recall Allison made a woeful gaffe from being pressed earlier that day.

KingslandBarge Because Allisson has been at the top of his game for years now, proven and nothing much to write about.

Like if Casillas or Buffon made an error nobody would care.

Just logging that example here, of which there have been more than one this season. Still, Allison has had some good moments too this season.

KingslandBarge

I am not going to be forced into a Ramsdale defence here. Ramsdale was goalkeeper of the season that just passed. Allison wasn't. Allison is stuck in the EL. Forward lines are getting better and better at pressing build ups and forcing GKs into errors, ones at the top of their game for years, and ones that are ascending. Thats all I say.

Which was hilarious.

QuincyAbeyie

KingslandBarge you don't honestly think Ramsdale is better than Alisson, do you? The latter is top 5 GKs in the world, which is on the careful side of such an estimate.
