The shape of him
M. Young is a 19-year-old goalkeeper at Salford City and a England international. In 25/26 that meant 50 club appearances and 4,530 minutes. A goalkeeper is judged in the moments that decide games: the save at 1–0, the claim under pressure, the first pass that starts an attack.
The job
Command the box, organise the line in front, and keep the side in the game when it is under the most pressure.
