Ahead of the second leg between Man City and Basel, we take a look at just how important Ederson is to Man City’s style of play.
Manchester City host Basel in the second leg of their Champions League knockout phase with Pep Guardiola’s team taking a 4-0 lead into the fixture. City have only conceded 9 shots per game in this season’s Champions League, the fourth lowest behind Liverpool, with 7.6, and Barcelona and Juventus, each on 8.4. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of City’s defence, though, is the way they initiate attacks from deep – all are comfortable on the ball and capable of retaining it under pressure. And goalkeeper Ederson is crucial to this, and to Guardiola’s style of play more generally.

Awesome job 👌🏻👌🏻
There are a lot of keepers nowadays who are capable of this skill
Tactics for ticks taka football plz
Brillant video! , can you do a tactical profile on Virgil van Dijk
I hope Guardiola assign more duties for him since he's a special one. Free kicks and penalty shots for example.
Will be interesting to see does Ederson edge out Roma keeper Alison in Brazil goal. Earlier in the season thought the spot was Alison's to lose, but recently Ederson has been magnificent.
Hey they lost.
Funny. lol
He plays a little like Neuer
I remember when every one was asking. Who is Ederson? And every Benfica fan: He's gona be better than Oblak (who also came from Benfica).
Do Sterling!!!!
I think these videos would improve if you had the title in mind beforehand, shoehorning in the name of the video at the end rather than having a comprehensive argument makes it feel generic
Thanks pep for playing bravo which why man city loses
Was this made before jan window or what no mention of Laporte when naming our CBs
could you do a video on Diego Milito?
As a shot stopper, the doughnut thief is the best keeper in the Prem. On overall ability and what he brings to the team, Ederson is the best keeper in Manchester.
0:36 Anyone else think Guardiola looks more like Nuno Espírito Santo?
Can't you become some great team suffering assistant coach? It will be delightful but it would be ruined if you consider Real Madrid as "THE GREEDIEST FOOTBALL PLAYER EVER' will not give attention as he thinks that he is the team who are suffering from a heartbreak, you surely know his name!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 ;D XD
Do benzema next
Should have stayed in Benfica 🙁
ederson>de gea
well without ederson they will concede every on target shoot
It's almost been 2½ years since this video was released and yet man city LB position isn't fixed😭 man literally said Walker and whoever is at LB…that position is cursed for Man City. Nathan Ake who wasn't injured in 12 years at Bournemouth just picked 2 injuries in 2 months.
