“We know as a player that you want to play all the time but the manager makes the decision. As a goalkeeper, it is a unique position where I cannot say much because they train on their own a lot of times.
“They spend a lot of time together so it is a very rare position with their own pressure. They are the last man in goal so every mistake is very watchable and a lot of people criticise them. It shows his mentality to be strong and keep working hard for his chance.”
