273: Between the Sticks #183

Normal service resumes on Between the Sticks with a full rundown of the key goalkeeping action from the weekend. Alphonse Areola, winner of October's Premier League Save of the Month, whacked his name in the hat for November's award with a fine stop from Taiwo Awoniyi in West Ham's victory over Nottingham Forest. He could be accompanied by a) Nick Pope who, despite being on the losing side at Bournemouth, showed excellent reactions to thwart Luis Sinisterra, and b) Emi Martinez for touching a Raul Jimenez effort onto the post as Aston villa beat Fulham. In the EFL, Brad Collins, Ben Hamer and Jonathan Mitchell made their first league outings of the campaign, while Reading's David Button sounded the Goalkeeper Assist klaxon.
