Quotes About Goalkeeper

I enjoy being a presence in the box.
~ Dominic Calvert-Lewin
The role of a goalkeeper in Pep's team is like the 11th outfield player on the pitch, in terms of the build-up, the pressing. I think it's more difficult. There is a bigger responsibility because you can't afford to make any mistakes. If you do, it probably ends in an opposition goal.
