Jordan Pickford played his 79th game for England against Wales, and Everton fans were all left feeling the same way about his performance.
The 31-year-old has been a pivotal part of England’s team for the past decade, being Gareth Southgate’s undisputed first-choice goalkeeper.
That trend has continued under Thomas Tuchel, who has continued to trust Pickford, regardless of the competition from Dean Henderson and James Trafford.
The game against Wales ended up being a historic night for Pickford on a personal level, despite it not being his busiest in an England shirt, and fans were quick to praise him after the final whistle.

Everton fans all believe that Jordan Pickford silenced his critics with another England clean sheet
Pickford kept another clean sheet for the Three Lions on Thursday night as England defeated Wales 3-0 following goals from Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins, and Bukayo Saka.
It was a historic night for Pickford as he broke Gordon Banks’ record for consecutive clean sheets, with this being his eighth in a row for the Three Lions.
It’s a record that has stood since 1966, and Everton fans were left telling the footballing world that Pickford has proven his critics wrong once again on social media afterwards.
Another fan claimed that the agenda against Pickford is “ridiculous” after he delivered another perfect performance in an England shirt.
Someone else hailed his performance as “sensational,” claiming that he is “a wall for England’s defence.”
Another supporter claimed that Pickford is “the greatest England goalkeeper of all time,” after his record-breaking performance.
Meanwhile, someone else said that he is a “fantastic keeper for club and country,” as fans continued to echo the idea that Pickford deserves more respect.
Jordan Pickford’s stats against Wales were impressive
Statistically, Pickford had another brilliant game for England in all aspects of his performance, not just that he kept a clean sheet.
Given that England dominated most of the game, he had to remain switched on at all points to react to any threat from Wales, which he managed to do.
But the Toffees goalkeeper was also there to help start the play from the back, showcasing his ability with the ball at his feet.
