Not cynicism as such, more that to evaluate success for someone in a role like that, we likely wont know for a good few years if he has had any impact or not. Such is the nature of youth development.

Faute de mieux, but yes, the ‘keeper should do more, much more. Anticipate, intercept, manage the penalty area and above all, get the angles right. Comes to naught, though, if he lets a trundler through his legs.

I don't share your cynicism, but he's certainly not been in the role long enough for any results to manifest. He's been at the club 3 years, but only 9 months (?) in his current role. He seems to be highly regarded across Europe.

Even 'Keepers are expected to do more now. A pure shot-stopper is not a desirable asset.

Not a penalty under the old laws. Disregarding the letter of the law, ancient or modern, it just wasn’t a handball.

Certainly not based on his work with us. Not exactly sure what he does, judging by his social media he just travels around Europe giving powerpoint presentations

And for football in general.

Do I detect a note of irony? Why select defensive players at all? Why not ten Cruyffs and a ‘keeper?

Probably based on his work with Royal Antwerp.

He's only been here 5 minutes, how can anyone evaluate if he has been a success or not? Must have a good agent.

I recall seeing somewhere the base designs were similar so that's why I picked that out. I'm not over fussed on aesthetics overall as long as we have the main stand in place

A good result for the toffees last night

Alexander-Arnold getting caught at the back post?! Liverpool should punt him. Defenders should defend.
