I agree with the fact we needed to sign an experienced keeper and would have been happy to sign Blackman, but to be fair to Reyes he is improving and played well yesterday made some good saves.

It certainly is. But how bizarre he signs a rookie inexperienced keeper as our num 1, that really doesn't make sense in L1. It's not totally unprecedented, Trafford at Bolton did well but he was one of the top young keepers in the country. When you pair it with Stevens being so fragile it amplifies the oddish decision though. Bazunu too, even Peacock-Farrel and Cummings

He’s been called up for the Chile national team for their World Cup qualifiers against Brazil and Colombia in October

Good for him. Obviously it'd take some mad scenario for him to play as third choice, but if he can keep Vinicius (assuming he's not been lynched given this week's fixture) and Savio quiet, not even Jay Stanfield will scare him.
Anyway, in the more immediate future, I look forward to Jonno calling him Rayas this afternoon!

Practice makes perfect.
Would be nice if he had less practice, mind.

He didn't fill me with confidence when he first came into the starting lineup, but perhaps that call up has given him a boost? I thought despite some wayward passes that today was his best performance so far for us. A few "supporters" seemed to turn on him after the first goal, but went quiet fairly quickly.
Its been a while since we've had a keeper this young regularly play for us, we forget that.

He’s starting to look more assured and commanding. Slowly Reyesing his game…

Reyes was the only positive today. He's growing in confidence. Also there's no-one to challenge him for the shirt now.

Some great saves today in the 1st half from the several one on ones. Some really confident catching crosses aswell. Wonder if he played a lot of basketball and NFL growing up in the US as his hands game is excellent.
However his kicking, especially kicking a back pass first time still needs plenty of work.
My Man of the Match today. Not a difficult choice mind.
