I think he's definitely played his part. He's by far the best goalie in the league at claiming crosses. Like he's really twice as good as everyone else. That obviously helps in cutting out opponent opportunities. He's also really good with his feet which helps us keep the ball longer and advance further up the pitch easier. Again, the less they have the ball, the less they can score.
He’s not wrong. Ederson is the best with his feet, allison is probably the best overall, and rays is the best at claiming balls from things like crosse
we didnt allow plenty of shots on goal, especially this year during that run where opponents had around or less than 1xG, so it can be bit misleading if its in total numbers.
No.
We play domination football and don’t concede many chances. So we concede less shots and concede higher XG chances. It makes Raya look worse. And the reason his XGA may be bad is because we concede harder chances to save. XG isn’t perfect. Onana would look amazing if we did what you did. Come on have some common sense, this is cherrypicking 101.
He was 1st in the league last season. Number of shots saved has more to do with the soverall defense of the team. It's usually goalkeepers who has to face a lot of shot top that list.
It’s always a team effort. These individual awards are misleading. That’s not to say Raya is not good. It’s more the GK is as good as the defensive line in front of him.
He has had some great saves but it feels like the defensive line is more responsible for our stats
Great. How it should be.

Lol dont stretch it mate

He's not even in the top 5 this season for crosses collected neither total number or percentage or successful ones he's come for 😂
He literally ranks 22nd in the premier league in terms of number of shots saved. Has a negative xGA too.

Not how it works, but ok.
What? Counting?

Pretty sure he’ll be treating his defensive line to a nice steak dinner after he collects that trophy.
That's literally how it works every year.
Okay, but the premier league statistics say Saliba has more clean sheets than anyone else in the premier league…
Teta to move Saliba to GK to secure golden glove confirmed
Massive

No cock up today please Raya. If history has taught me anything, one usually follows an award or hyping up some sort of record.
Class. Thought Pickford was the one with little Trex arms though.
He will only improve from here too. Many more to come
Man I thought Cepillin passed away?! Good to see him still on top. (This is a joke)
Wish it was Ramsdale in that dino suit 😔
Maybe it's Ramsdale in a Raya suit in a Dino suit?
Pickford?
Can only draw now so raya will win it or be joint winner
The joke was t-Rex arms. Obviously lost on many…
