    I think after watching the Netflix doc with Scott Carson it’s obvious why you keep a guy like that around (if you can afford it). He’s basically a mental health coach for the team. Brightens everyone’s day

    Goalkeeper is the loneliest position to play. You really don't know the galf of what goalkeepers have to go through just to get a game. Being a 3rd choice isn't so bad considering the amount of keepers who struggle just to get a job.

    Mostly signed on the cheap, in a role where they will hardly ever need to play, because you don't rotate keepers like you do other positions. Most on this list are English, or otherwise fit the homegrown criteria too. So for a top club who are usually playing in European cups each season, it makes perfect sense.

    Slight correction, Karius signed for Newcastle as second choice keeper after Dubravka joined Man U on loan, he only became third choice once the Dubravka loan was terminated. He also played the cup final because Pope was suspended and Dubravka was cup-tied.

    Raimond VanderGouw went from third choice to first choice in 1999-00 due to how bad Bosnich and Massiamo Tiabi was
    Also Fabien Barthez did find himself third choice in 2003-04 after Tim Howard was signed that summer and also behind Roy Carroll .
    Roy Carroll has spent quite a career not being quite first choice after leaving Wigan for Manchester United over 20 years ago and only retired recently.
    Stephen Bywater also had quite the nomadic back up keeper role and was never really first choice wherever he went.
    Peter Shilton was registered as a player with West Ham in 1996 putting him behind Ludek Miklosko and Neil Finn which was surprised considering that he was about 46 at the time, West Ham would later exchange him for Les Sealey I believe from Blackpool and Les was in his 40s by then !!!

    Just to let you know, neither Nick Pope or Martin Dúbravka were injured for the league cup final against Man United. Pope was serving a domestic ban for his handball against Liverpool, and Dúbravka was cup tied, having played in the cup for Man United earlier that season.

    Wow.....what an interesting and informative video,thanks it goes to show 'looks can be deceiving'....3rd choice goalies chances of getting a start in a competitive match- they would still need to keep their fitness up....just in case- plus by staying around the club they can prove valuable by keeping the confidence up for any new signing that find themselves on the substitutes bench.....and also could easily find themselves as a goalkeeping coach (as their mindset would be invaluable) for short notice or as long term position!
    No shade.....but when I played at what was then amateur level, I reckon with little technical work I could have done a similar role myself, (I wish!) Hahaha!!😎🏆

    I've always thought the 3rd choice GK should go to a lad from the academy.
    De Gea only got a chance at Atletico when GK 1 and 2 were injured. He then came in and did well and Atletico made £20m from him.
    Imagine they'd had a senior 3rd choice at the time?

    • @Zahrul3

      The 3rd choice goalkeeper is usually a goalkeeping coach also. Lads from the academy with potential are usually loaned out ASAP or become the second choice keeper.

    Tony Coton was the best keeper never to play for England, and in my humble opinion is to this day the best English keeper since Peter Shilton. In the same way Clemence got the nod over Shilton in the 70s, for god knows what reason (other than Peter Swales was on the FA international committee and didn't want to pay Watford the 350 grand City would have owed them if Coton pulled on an England shirt) TC was never selected. Less error-prone than Seaman or Martyn, and an absolutely brilliant keeper. When he was at his peak in the early 90s, he and Schmeichel were the best keepers in Europe
