People talk about the incredible save from Stefan (against Son) many times and it was," said Guardiola.
But Eddie has done it before with Son and the same action and saved it. Do you know the reason why we won the Champions League last season? It was Ederson.
He made an incredible save against Madrid from the header from Benzema. In the final of the Champions League, he was the key player and the key to win.
We cannot define this period without Eddie. It is impossible. It's been a strange season for him - four setbacks, four times injured - a keeper four times, with incredible knocks, I've never seen that.
Today in modern football you need two proper, proper keepers. Before it was clear the first keeper and the second keeper, the distance was so big.
And of course everybody knows, the team knows, they both know that Ederson is the first keeper, but the distance is not. Because you need it.
There are a lot of games, you have injuries, and you have to have the second good, good keeper like you have four central defenders top-class.
You have to have two or three very good keepers otherwise when the distance is too big the team cannot compete."
