I don’t want to jinx things but I feel like I need to start a post giving praise to Alisson Becker.

We have 9 points and it could easily have been 5 points as we didn’t play well in the Palace and Brighton games.

He pulled off saves in both of those games which if they had gone in no-one could have complained. Those saves helped win the points for us.

He's saved us 4 points already. But whisper it. Don't jinx him.

He's amazing, an absolute beast of a signing like VVD.

Saved us 4 points is a bit of a stretch. He has made saves he should have made. He has given the defence more confidence and looks a top keeper.

Absolutely Mark. Good start but let's not get carried away yet. When he makes a save or two you don't expect him to make then start saying he's saved us points. His distribution and command is a marked improvement though.

genuine question - how do the stat geeks determine whether an individual player or individual event occuring "won us the game"?

world class goalkeeper without a doubt. he's freekick save was incredible, and he made it look easy. if De Gea made the same save it would be in every newspaper.

Please stop with this GK praise please. Migs saved a penalty in his first game for us!

Great post Ron, we'll be singing his praises at the end of the season when he helps us win that title :) .
