Well I'm sorry angel-tits, I repeat (for the last time) there's damned lies and statistics. It's clearly absurd to say "he's not as good as other goalkeepers in the league when he clearly is. Statistics tell one side of the story, the other side is less tangible and includes all sorts of strengths including positioning, judging the right time to come out of the goalmouth, the sense of calm instilled amongst defenders, how crap they are at properly decking Arjen Robben, etc. etc.
Fuck me, goalkeepers are now going to be judged on how much they have to do? So if we totally dominate a game and Pepe makes just two awesome saves, it's not as good as another keeper whose team plays shite and their keeper saves a load of weak cruddy attempts on goal?
Sorry. I'll concede bias towards Pepe, but I swear I wouldn't trade him for any other keeper.
