Jordan Pickford will win his 50th cap against France when he could equal England’s clean sheet record at major tournaments. It’s time to recognise him for what he is…

After four-and-a-half years as undisputed No.1, surely now is the time to recognise Pickford for what he is: an always reliable, occasionally brilliant last line of defence and a top-class first line of attack. Such range of distribution is crucial for the modern goalkeeper – for some coaches, it’s more important than anything else. The debate will rage over the desired skillset in a No.1 but more than ever, it’s all a matter a taste. Ideally, you get yourself a goalkeeper who can do it all, which is precisely what Southgate has done.
and his attention-grabbing, all-action style isn’t to all tastes. Many of his movements – before, during and after his actions – can appear exaggerated, and that grates with some people who prefer their keepers to be seen or heard only when absolutely necessary. For some pundits, a prominent goalkeeper is a problem because they can’t be ignored like those who don’t make a fuss. And that’s when their own ignorance towards the position comes to the fore.
