as you say, really places the importance on the performances of Gaita week in, week out, doesn't it?
So Gaita's perhaps a,
surprise name at the top of that XG table if you didn't know it you might not pick him as the top performing goalkeeper this season but Adam it's quite tricky isn't it to what colours our perception of these goalkeepers and who's a good goalkeeper and who's a bad goalkeeper is it perhaps more to do with big mistakes they might make or penalty saves they make at the end of a game to rescue points for their team does that have a bigger impact on how we assess a goalkeeper than their
And Matt, don't we also have the situation where we've got goalkeepers of different clubs facing very different challenges on a match day?
You mentioned Guy Eterne, you mentioned Alisson.
These are two keepers who are going to have very different work rates in terms of saving shots.
They also have different demands on them in terms of what they do when the ball's at their feet, for instance, or other aspects of their game in terms of how they look after crosses and things like this.

And he's also his team's most creative player.
So Adam, why isn't there more excitement around Dwight McNeil?
Yeah, absolutely.
So he's come up with five Premier League assists this season.
Matt Adams just run through some of his numbers there.
What's the context of that in terms of his age when he's a 20-year-old player?
But how does it compare to players of a similar age to him?
