Is this the luckiest goalkeeper in the Premier League?

Tom Victor

If someone offered you the chance to be named Man of the Match on your Premier League debut, you’d jump at the chance.

But West Ham’s Darren Randolph won’t exactly have been thrilled with how the rest of his afternoon went.

The Ireland international was probably his team’s best player against Bournemouth, but that really isn’t saying much.

Randolph has already conceded 16 goals in three games against the Cherries before the latest meeting, but his defence didn’t make things easy for him.

With a trip to Liverpool up next, he should be kept busy enough to put himself in line for another Man of the Match award.
