Ederson finally got the record he deserved yesterday - 100 Prem Clean Sheets!

Over the moon for the guy. Hard to argue against him being one of Pep’s most important signings, if not the most important.

He joined City and saved us from Bravo. He fit right in straight away and adapted brilliantly, needing no time to settle.

In the last couple of weeks he’s saved us from dropped to draws with saves against Villa (the one on one at 2-1) and yesterday against Wolves. It must be hard to stay switched on all game.

He hates scousers as well. Top top man! Congrats!!

I was so sceptical when he first signed for abs no reason but my god what a keeper. Wouldnt swap him for any other in the world. Could be here for another ten years too.

one of our finest..... Midfielders - not bad as a goalie too!

He is a midfielder playing in goals. Happy for him getting 100 clean sheets hard to concentrate when we dominate possession as much as we do. Talking with the lads on the coach about it and he does not stop that many for me, have always thought that. I think the yank is a better keeper but nowhere near Ed with the ball at his feet and that's why we have him

I think he still needs to have his moment with Mane.

Brilliant goal keeper !

So Glad we have him .

Good lad, Eddie. It is easy to keep goal when you are constantly involved but it is a much harder job keeping your concentration when you have got nothing to do for 88 minutes.

He was doing keep warm exercises for most of the game !

Really want to watch the doc on him that the club have done but don’t have this City TV thingy.

Might be controversial but I think the overall package for him is greater than the sum of his parts.

He is a leader, a motivator
His distribution is on another level to anyone in world football and his calmness, awareness, skill, vision and confidence has played and continues to play a major part in how we play football and win matches.

But for me his save percentage could be better, as a shot stopper he concedes goals that other goalies would save.

But as a package of his overall game and what he brings I wouldn't change him. Will be interesting to see if Peps replacement, whomever and whenever that will be, wants to keep the philosophy and style of play we currently have and enjoy or whether we go in a different direction. As maybe then his greatest attributes wont be as useful. Remember when Pep came in and we wondered who would be sold, hardly anyone saw Hart being first out of the door.

But well done Big Ed. Great achievement and hopefully your sideboard will have another Golden Glove on it in May
