“The evolution of the role of the goalkeeper: today he is becoming an additional player on the pitch at the time of construction.

I give you the example of two matches played this year by my Brighton, against Liverpool and Manchester City: I had prepared the defensive phase, in both cases, going man for man.

However, Klopp and Guardiola raised the goalkeeper a lot in relation to the penalty area, transforming him into an outfield player and definitely putting me in difficulty.” #BHAFC
