Iversen.

Iversen.

Excellent save now I've seen it, proper quality but he should've done better with the initial show imo. Top keepers wouldn't spill that.

Still the best I've seen for us though.
 
I think Iversen is the better shot stoppper than both Pickford and Johnson but the worst at kicking and distribution. Pickfords distribution is probably the best in the world.
He was unsighted for the first shot last night and it looked like it swerved a bit too, it wasn't as easy as some make out.

Iversen has so far during both loan periods been fantastic for us.
Performance wise, probably as consistent as any 'keeper in the division and yet some still have to highlight the odd fumble or the odd stray pass.
Top 'keeper.

Exactly, even world class keepers have fumbles, it’s part of the game they’re human beings. IMO Iversen is the best keeper we’ve had on loan for general security & shot stopping, if we’re comparing distribution obviously Pickford is better, but him & Ederson are the best in the world at this. Iversen is going to be world class.
I sat at Huddersfield away with my wife a few years back & I was talking her through the players in the warm up - who was who. I said that’s Pickford on loan, he’s going to be England no.1 in a few years. She looked at me as though I was just doting on PNE players & exaggerating. Turns out I was right again, which I mention every time he wears the 3 lions shirt 😄
 
Iversen is class, probably the best in the league, but I think the only area of keeping where he edges it over Pickford is his one-on-one reaction saves.

Pickford was solid at dealing with crosses when he was here, Iversen is a bit more frantic. Distribution is obviously worlds apart.

Johnstone was my favourite - absolutely no-frills rock solid stuff, albeit at a lower level. Not surprised he's done as well as he has.

I loved Johnstone. Always felt so calm with him in net. Especially at free kicks, he always just seemed to wander over and catch them.
 
I think Iversen is probably better than Johnstone was in his time with us, just considering the level of opposition, but Johnstone still goes down as may favourite. You never felt like he was going to make a mistake

I also think he’s currently the best in the league, with Iversen in second
 
Johnstone is a great keeper but he’s found his level in the Championship. When Iversen is his age I predict he’ll be playing in the Prem.

And the England squad.....above Pope who has been a regular in the prem for years. Probably the one who could force him out of that is Henderson and he doesn't play.

He's a premiership level 'keeper, no doubt about it and will probably be back there next season with WBA or without them.
