Watching Pickford hit it long every time , and turn over possession every time was very, very, very annoying. |  |

Can't really blame it on Pickford. Everyone was sat on the 18 years line, and every clearance just came back at us. |  | | |

Can I say...watching Pickford trying to play short and having the touch of George Hirst is also equally difficult to watch.
That said....he has been generally rather decent between the sticks. |  |

He had nowhere else to go considering our whole side, bar one, was entertaining the Argentinians on the edge of our box. |  |

I was talking throughout the game, not just after we took the lead. | |

Can't say I noticed that. He played a few out to the back four too, didn't he? I think he's been one of our better players this tournament. [Post edited 15 Jul 22:49]

He has been. But hitting the ball long only to give it back to a side like Argentina is suicide.
I’d say he hit it long in 90% of cases | |

Ah ok, yes he does like a punt. He also looks like he should have been an extra in Peaky Blinders, but that’s probably not relevant :)
He’s a good keeper, but I find it tiring watching him. He’s bouncing around like a 3 year old after 2 litres of Coke and it seems like he’s perpetually seconds away from a cock up. | |

I feel he has two plans
1.... diag to fullbacks.
2.... hoof to kane who barely wins a header thats not a cross |  |

I keep seeing stuff about how underrated he is. For me it's the other way round, overrated. He puts the defence under pressure with some terrible footwork at the back, misses saves he should make, when he blasts the ball long it's as likely to come straight back as not. But then he makes one decent long pass or one good save, both of which he should be doing regularly as an international keeper, and suddenly it's all about how good he is or how underrated he is. When people are 'underrati g' him they are just including the crap in their conclusions |  |

Absolutely.
Couldn't for the life of me work out why, having made a save (or seen a shot go over) he repeatedly proceeded to boot the ball long. One literally went straight out for a goal kick at the other end  and another went out for a throw in to the Argies... In both cases they were back, camped out in our half, taking another shot / cross about 15 seconds later...
Think we missed a more mobile player as an out-ball to give them something to think about but, still, don't give possession away from the goal kick |  | | |
