Guglielmo Vicario was the top scorer in the Premier League this season, according to WhoScored statistics.Vicario was relatively unknown to Premier League fans when he arrived through the door last summer, but immediately won over the Tottenham fans and quickly established an impressive reputation in the English Premier League.
The Italian’s goalscoring record has been second to none this season, with Spurs’ number one making excellent full-stretch saves time and time again.His decision-making in possession and off the line was also almost flawless, which is crucial due to Ange Postecoglou’s side play.However, in recent weeks, Vicario has been questioned about his ability to tackle the goal and opposition teams are now clearly targeting him, laying on the man at every corner.Some pundits have suggested that his use of corners and free-kicks is a weakness in the 27-year-old’s game (TNT Sports 1 – 03/02/24 via Daily Mail), but Tottenham fans may think the goalkeeper might have done something the umpires did not tell them provided adequate protection.Guglielmo Vicar.
Despite his deterioration in recent weeks, Vicario is still the top goalscorer this season according to Whoscored, with the Spurs star averaging 6.86 per game..
I’m skeptical of how these ratings are calculated because simply using metrics like shots taken or goals expected isn’t enough to describe the performance of different goalkeepers.That being said, there is no doubt that Vicario has been a huge lifeline for Tottenham this season and has been up there as the best number one in the division.Keep up to date with the latest Tottenham news and views by following the SpursWeb Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts..
