^ very good points
They make a name for themselves at a smaller club, where they might give up 10 big chances in a game, and make 8 worldy saves.
The game will end in a 2-0 loss with big plaudits for the keeper. He does this consistently, makes his big move, now all of a sudden he's at a big club, and the defence is so good he's not getting those opportunities to shine. But then the other team hits a 30 yard speculator because they can't get in behind, he's not concentrating, it swerves in the air, boom 1-0.
The pressure means that eats away at his brain, and might happen again.
Before you know it you've got yourself a Mignolet...
Nah, he is a very good keeper. Chelsea are on to a winner there, and wouldn't have spent 70m+ on a Mingolet. They did their research. Much better than Allison, for example, and has a higher ceiling.
