A tale of two narratives in this week's Between the Sticks. One is relatively non-existent in the case of Bernd Leno, and that's simply because the German is going about his business in West London - just like he has done in the 126 consecutive appearances made for the club since he signed in the summer of 2022. The other surrounds Tottenham stopper, Guglielmo Vicario. Despite an xGA of 2.3, it…
With Richard Lee on his 2025-26 rotation, the vastly-experienced David Rouse steps in to fill the void this week. In the Premier League, Emi Martinez was up to his customary tricks with a match-winning save in the class between Aston Villa and Wolves, Guglielmo Vicario felt the wrath of Tottenham fans when giving the ball away for what turned out to be the winner, and we delve into the goalkeeper…
This week's show is kicked off with three interference-based incidents: Murillo's opener for Nottingham Forest at Liverpool Eberechi Eze's first in a North London Derby hat-trick Virgil van Dijk's disallowed header prior to the international break at Man City Was vision obstructed for Alisson, Guglielmo Vicario and Gianluigi Donnarumma respectively or should all three goals have been given? Over…
Welcome Andy Marshall. A new voice arrives on Between the Sticks this week in the form of the ex-Millwall, Charlton and Birmingham Goalkeeper Coach. Marshy, who decided to step away from the grass in the summer, will join up throughout the campaign to offer his expert insight on all things goalkeeping and the weekend's main talking points. For this episode, we discuss a week of heroics from…
With more than 70 moves occurring across all four tiers of the professional English pyramid over the summer, it was about time we cast our eyes over all the big transfer talking points. From James Trafford to Will Brook, this is a GKs On Their Way special interspersed with a smattering of the top goalkeeping action from the weekend.
What better way to kick off a new season (and a long-awaited return to Between the Sticks) than with two goalless draws? The ideal result at GKU Towers was witnessed at Selhurst Park and the Hill Dickinson Stadium (not sure that'll ever sound right) as four stoppers - including Premier League newcomer, Robin Roefs - made their way into Clean Sheet Club this weekend. Joining Roefs on that list is…
Yep, you read that right. Peter Shilton . C. B. E. Fresh from the release of his completely free, 14-part "Shilton's Secrets" program, England's record cap holder invited GKU into his home to primarily discuss why he thinks goalkeeper coaching needs a bit of a revamp. Naturally, we do also briefly touch on his 31-year career. Shilts talks us through designing his own goalkeeper apparel, that…
We're often asked how much longer we can continue to interview goalkeepers for. How can you think up new topics? How can you keep it fresh? Doesn't every interview become the same after a while? Is the aim to have every goalkeeper to have ever played on the Goalkeepers' Union Podcast? Granted, that last question might be a bit of a stretch. The others, however, are all part and parcel of what…
FA Cup Semi-Final weekend sees the focus on Dean Henderson and Matz Sels in this episode of Between the Sticks. The former making a bog stop in Crystal Palace's win over Aston Villa. The latter called out for not coming for a corner which all but ended Nottingham Forest's hope of a dream day out as Man City booked their place in a third successive final. In the EFL, three goalkeepers bagged their…
Not often do you hear of a goalkeeper going from the Premier League to Tier 9 in the space of a few short years - only to gradually make his way back into the throes of a League One promotion race at the age of 37. Ben Hinchliffe (that's Hinch- liffe , not Hinch-cliffe) is a straight-talking stopper with a whopper of a story to tell - from driving trucks part-time to dislodging every aspiring…
