It’s common knowledge now that Mr Crooks tends to hold what I will charitably describe as interesting points of view on who does and doesn’t deserve to get into his team of the week. More accurately the bloke is a fucking weapon. The best GK this week, in Garth’s esteemed opinion, was David de Gea.
That wasn’t the impression I got from watching. I doubt it’s the opinion of anybody with functioning eyes.

Hopefully Southgate was watching DDG as Pickford has been a bit ropey lately

Bartley made Team of the Week.
Here is the opening paragraph of Crooks' comments :-
"This lad was very lucky not to concede a penalty. Everyone I spoke to was as convinced as I was that referee Mike Dean had got the decision terribly wrong.
Dion Dublin on Final Score was certain. So too Martin Keown and Danny Murphy on Match of the Day, but not Dean."
He just can't help himself.

SJ & Bartley in this week.
There have been many occasions when SJ was the weeks best keeper in the league this season, but I wouldn't have said he did anything out of the ordinary against Brighton.

SJ had very little to do last game. I actually thought Brighton's keeper did really well. Punched or caught everything. Again, this is to do with Crooks, not any reflection on anyone else.
