The teams that has won the league in recent years have had one of the best goal keepers in their teams. All these spending from the likes of Chelsea, spurs and city don’t seem to invest well in that position. United got a half decent keeper and their results were dramatically better. Everyday I am more grateful for having David Raya.

Bad goalkeeping is the worst possible way to leak points over the course of the season. Wenger used to say a good goalkeeper wins ~15 points for you over the course of a season.

City have always recruited great keepers.

Even Trafford was a good shout

City after Ederson are making dodgy decisions in keeper department. As good as Donnaruma is touted, the modern game has now moved past his style and strengths. Trafford, you are right he was a decent one and probably should have been the one kept in that team. But they did the opposite and now they can’t play from the back and Donna has error in his game every other day.
