I may be mis-remembering, but didn’t Travers win some of the player of the year awards in the promotion season?
He won the Micky Cave I'm pretty sure. For me he is very similar, a very good shot stopper, decent distribution, could command his area better. Personally I prefer Neto but can see why others prefer Travers. And he has a much better chantI may be mis-remembering, but didn’t Travers win some of the player of the year awards in the promotion season?

Vitals: The only place on the internet where you can get AFCB - UK Party political analogous cross-over!Tbf I don't think it's particularly about Travers' merits it's about dropping Neto for his poor form in terms of mistakes.
The Tories are likely to get voted out this year but it isn't because Keir Starmer is brilliant.
A good dose of perspective.Neto is a decent enough keeper. He just plays in a position where any mistake/ perceived mistakes is criticised
Just last night Onana made a howler, Dubravka was nutmegged by a shot which was ok, but by no means a rocket and Allison gave away a pen (got lucky with VAR) and let a shot squirm under him for a goal. Neto would have got hammered for all of them.
Those 3 cost £113m between them. Neto was a free transfer
Wow Neto is a better keeper than Alisson......who knew......yeah I think that kinda kills it for me.Appreciate PSxG isn't the be all and end all but just as a benchmark it's about as good a metric as you can easily get for working out a 'keepers impact on the scoreline.
Here's Travers from the Championship:

and to get a handle on the difference in quality between the leagues, you can see Wes Foderingham at 3 who's still at Sheffield United.
Here's where he is this season:

EDIT: Also noticed Kaminski is on both too

Can you explain what all those numbers are supposed to mean?Appreciate PSxG isn't the be all and end all but just as a benchmark it's about as good a metric as you can easily get for working out a 'keepers impact on the scoreline.

Is there a flaps at crosses (FxC)per game list of stats?So the post shot expected goals faced per 90 sounds worse than it is.
Basically it means against the league average how many goals more or less a game a 'keeper concedes.
To break it up, I'll assume you know about xG so post shot xG is the expected chance of scoring once the ball has been hit effectively the quality of the shot once taken. You can then by adding up all the chances faced compare it to the number of goals conceded. That effectively tells you how many goals the 'keeper has prevented (or not) against the league average.
The problem with that is a bit like goals scored if you've only played 10 games you're less likely to have scored more goals than someone who's played the full 38 so you measure it per 90.
There's more detail here: https://thesporting.blog/blog/post-shot-expected-goals-what-is-it-and-why-does-it-matter
The problem with it is that facing large volumes of shots will increase the value more dramatically one way or the other so you can either look at the PSxG as a qualifier. For example to please TF if you look at Pope and Allison either side of Neto, per game they face almost half as many PSxG so they have less opportunity to effect a game positively.
Regardless being positive means you're above average and negative is below average.
Nathan Baxter in the Championship table for example had a blinder of a season because he prevented one more goal than Travers over the course of the season with about half the number of opportunities.
Another good shot stopper but another who doesn't look commanding on crosses coming into the box.Could we get rambo back??.
Maybe it's a 'If I leave, something exciting is bound to happen' during boring periods of the game thing.Yeah if I'm on the piss properly I, or one of my group, will go down and get the beers in and we might miss.second half ko.
The football is obviously the focal point of the day but I find it's best not to pin your entire enjoyment of the day to it. I don't miss as much of the game as that podcast guy does but I also don't think I've seen Dom Solanke score at Fulham despite being there for all of those games.
I'm afraid you'll need to rely on your imagination to come up with a metric that makes Travers look like a superior option to Neto.Is there a flaps at crosses (FxC)per game list of stats?
I don't think I've ever seen Neto leave his penalty area to hoof the ball upfield or into the stands like Travers did last night. Usually seems to stay in the 6 yard box.Travers, for his first game in a long time did pretty well, no howlers, but very similar to what Neto would have done.
