Pickford has been replaced in the England Under 21 squad. Given he's been **** hot, surely his first Senior England Call up is on the cards. Southgate due to announce England squad today,
He's played 5 first team games for us and you're already writing him off. Bet you walked out on 85 mins yesterday as well
Abit harsh mate? Hes been faultless as far as im concerned. Keepers dont peak till late 20s/30s so weve got a gem!
Stayed until the end Giach. Was only having a laugh with Bri. HOWEVER , a lad who so impressed me with his ability to collect a cross looks like he has been told to stay in his six yard box. Just my opinion.
Turns out it is injury. It's coming though. I tells ya. Jordan Pickford has been withdrawn from the England U21 squad due to injury. The goalkeeper will remain on Wearside for treatment but may link up with the Three Lions squad later this week. Brighton keeper Christian Walton has been called into the squad ahead of Thursday night's game in Kazakhstan. England then face Bosnia in Walsall on Tuesday 11th October.
He's still got a lot of learning to do no doubt about it. Some of his kicking is ridiculously good. He sees players as if he's an outfield number 10. Then again some of his kicking at times has been a little bit erratic. He'll learn when to pick and choose when to go long and when not.
Talking to a lad in the Washington Sunderland shop who went to school with Pickford - apparently he often played as an outfield player when younger. But alarming the Sun quotes that we are willing to sell him - thats why we are looking for other keepers - I certainly hope not It is in the scurrilous sun but people do read it and players become unsettled .....
You can tell if that's the case (that he played outfield). When he picks out the full backs with some of his passes its pinpoint. Saw some links while back for Utd and Spurs being interested and I'm sure there will be more than just those keeping an eye on him. Never seen anything saying we'd be willing to sell him however so would be interest to see that article.

I'll be beyond livid with the club if they sell him for anything less than a huge amount. Not that a throwaway line in the Sun means it's true.
Every player has their price and all that. It does say if a 'major offer' came in. Just the Sun at it again. You could print that story with almost any player. If Man Utd offered £25m for him next Summer we'd sell him, simple as that.
I know every player has his price but considering the deal we did for Kaboul it wouldn't be a massive surprise if we sold Pickford for something like ten million. Twenty five, ok I would like more but it's a good amount.
We were short changed with Kaboul no doubt but it was a different situation. He wanted away for family reasons or whatever. Pickford is an asset, anything without a 2 in front of it should be laughed at.
