BBC Sport main man pays tribute to Newcastle United signing who is best in his position in European football nufc
The fact that Nick Pope is now on a run of ten clean sheets in a row, means that finally he is getting at least some of the recognition he has deserved for his outstanding form this season, whether it is from BBC Sport or wherever.
had a very decent keeper in Martin Dubravka BUT he had no doubts that £10m for Nick Pope last summer was an absolute stunning bargain.BBC Sport main man‘Newcastle United’s new era of riches under their Saudi Arabian owners has brought fresh ambition and big spending – but the £10m handed over to Burnley for Nick Pope looks like a snip.
It has been a long, agonising wait since that Inter Cities’ Fairs Cup win, but hopes are rising that the long, barren years may finally coming to an end judging by the Toon Army’s wild scenes of celebration at the final whistle. He has kept 16 clean sheets in 24 games this season, a vastly superior ratio to anyone else, with Manchester United’s David de Gea ranked second with 12 from 27 games.
Newcastle team-mate Bruno Guimaraes was perhaps getting giddy on the heady scent of victory when he described Pope as “the best goalkeeper in the world” in his post-match interview but there is no doubt he is having a magnificent season. The same charges cannot be made now; an outstanding defence is built around his signings Pope, Kieran Trippier, Sven Botman and Dan Burn alongside those players he inherited.
