I remember seeing him struggle in that Sunderland Till I Die documentary getting relegated to league 1. Makes you wonder how many other players out there have the potential to be at a much higher level but the system they're in is limiting it

Why did they even sign Verbruggen lol
Competition, Steele isn't the youngest either.
We needed a backup goalkeeper and a long term option. With Verbruggen we have both.
One of the worst keepers I’ve seen at Ewood Park and thought he kept falling upwards but credit to him for turning it around.
He was absolutely dreadful against us when we won 6-1. Not just because he conceded six but his distribution and command of his box was terrible.
If you'd have told me in 2019 that the bloke who I just watched get benched and then relegated in Sunderland Till I die would be our starting keeper in our European debut season; I would have probably doubted your faculties
I can’t believe he’s currently at a Prem team never mind occasionally starting he was so bad when he was at us, fair play to him
Every single Sunderland and Blackburn fan has reflected on how terrible he was for them. Makes it so much funnier. De Zerbi is one crazy mf
Quite a bad shot stopper by premier league standards
Tremendous turn around for the lad. He's really rebuilt himself mentally and has earned this new deal.
