'He's had three bad minutes in six months - if that': Everton great Neville Southall backs under-fire England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford to rediscover his best form

Under-fire Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has been backed to rediscover his best form by their legendary stopper Neville Southall.

Southall reckons England No 1 Pickford has had just 'three bad minutes in six months' and will soon start performing to his full potential for the early Premier League leaders.

The England international was hit by criticism for his two mistakes against Fleetwood in the Carabao Cup earlier this season and was back in the spotlight with yet another error in Saturday's 4-2 Premier League win over Brighton.
