Everton star Jordan Pickford and Manchester City ace Ederson Moraes are two of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.
The former Chelsea striker made the comments following Pickford’s performance for England against the Netherlands on Friday evening.
The former Sunderland star started in goal for the Three Lions, as the visiting team won the international friendly match 1-0.
Cascarino has warned Pickford, who joined Everton from Sunderland in the summer of 2017 for an initial fee stated on the Toffees’ official website to be worth £25 million, against coping City goalkeeper Ederson.
“Jordan Pickford will get some praise for playing out from the back last night,” Cascarino wrote in The Times. “However, he did receive an early warning.
“The England goalkeeper almost gave a goal away when he received a pass from Maguire and then tried to dribble past Bas Dost, and was lucky to escape with a goal kick.
“Your system may encourage you to play out from the back but if it is not on, don’t do it. It can be the difference between progressing to the next round and getting knocked out of a tournament.
“Teams will be ready to take advantage. It’s dangerous to assume you can copy Ederson at Manchester City. No England goalkeeper is as good a footballer as the Brazilian.”
Good advice
Ederson is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League and is brilliant at playing the ball from the back.
The 24-year-old Brazil international joined City from Benfica in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £35m.
Pickford is a brilliant goalkeeper and is good on the ball, but the Everton star, who earns £60,000 per week as salary according to Spotrac.com, stills needs to learn a lot.
