It’s not just the GK. Defence in front of him help a lot.

Dyche is good at setting up defences. His system mate Keane look better than he is last year.

Wasn't great today. Spilled a shot to give Sane an open net and genuinely laughed out loud at the replays of the third goal, I have no idea what he was doing.

Surprised this lad doesn't have a more recent thread, best keeper in the league this season?

Should have been England's number 1 for the past 2-3 years instead of T-rex arms.

Didn't he have a terrible spell this season?
I don't think so?

Burnley had a terrible start to last season but it's when Pope and Heaton were injured and they played Joe Hart.

I think Pope might go Chelsea this summer

He's 28, didn't realise he was that old. He's had a good season though, certainly better than Pickford.

Not going to pretend I've watched him alot but his feet saves reminds me of de gea's saves from a couple seasons back. Add that to what people say about him commanding the box then he must be a good player.

Age should be on his side hopefully as a goalkeeper who has worked himself up from the lower leagues.
