He spent his 20s and early 30s getting minutes. I think at 38 I'd be fine with getting big wages, while I can focus on life after the career.

Carsson is essential for the GKs on Man City. There’s reports that Carsson helped develop Ederson and Ortega, he brings together and supports young players, and Man City wants him to be GK Manager/Trainer after he retires…

[@johnknight9762]

Yea he’s basically been their assistant GK coach while also being third string

[@saptaccrvima3563]

And fills out EPLs English player quota for Man City

[@jimsu-whls-1686]

Also having a 3rd goalie helps in training

[@jbk504]

I believe this 100%

[@mermils]

Its how many big clubs had old GK as 3rd choices, experience for the young 2nd GK and help the main one during training and support, its a good strategy.

[@rillionaireadam-might2088]

[@francisxavierderyzunuo1427]

[@Tomford897]

I think squad players like Carson should get premier league medals. Every team needs a 3rd choice keeper

[@vibremaster239]

Exactly especially since he helps develop the Goalkeeper's. He probably developed James Trafford too

[@dondappapumpumslappa8051]

Then every player that made the bench should get a medal but then that weakens the medal massively so no way shoukd u get a medal if u dont play

goalkeepers get medals, they just have to be in official squad the appearance criteria is only for outfield players

Scott is not just a benchwarmer in city squad. He's an influential figure in the squad, he motivates and his experience is the key to city success. Yes, I think city will extend his contract.

[@garincho84]

The croatia jersey is epic

[@whisper7393]

There's a reason clubs like to have a 3rd older GK that is likely to almost never play and they still pay them a lot. While the main Goalkeeper is getting the training for the game, the 2nd and 3rd GK's are the ones used for training drills for the outfield players. So while they don't play, they still have a part in a club's success.

[@mricycreamy4603]

he's not just a 3rd goalie he is a goalkeeper coach that influences the talent of young goalkeeper's from the academy

[@elriano1]

Along with all the other reasons that other comments have mentioned he also fills up a spot on the home-grown players quota, which for big clubs like City, who often have more foreign players than smaller clubs, can be difficult to fill.

[@99999markus]

good point!

[@ThinkingAloud00]

Na our English quota is already met but Carson is needed in the dressing room it’s not the English quota I do get what you’re saying though but as you can see when we had the issue with athletico Madrid Carson was in the tunnel grabbing up athleti players for trying to go for Grealish

[@clement5882]

Same thing for Alexandre Letellier for PSG. He signed on 2020 for the club to reach the amount of homegrown players for Champions League. He never was the main GK in his team, so he has only 92 appearances at 33 years old. And now, he's like the 5th choice in GK behind Donnarumma, Tenas, Navas and Rico

[@PINGPONGBANDIT]

You get to play the game in practice every day, you hang out with some of the best players in the world, have zero pressure put on you, and get to enjoy a prosperous life with your family giving them proper quality time every day. He's living the drea.

[@HereGoesKevin]

As a goalkeeper myself I am updated and always researching about goalkeepers, this guy is a senior goalkeeper for man city, he trains Ederson and Ortega and other backup Goalkeepers for Man City, he is the Big brother role model for the goalkeepers of the club!!! I have seen him in various videos especially about goalkeeping, but nobody really watch his stuff like that because not many people want to be a goalkeeper, he might be man city's goalkeeping coach if he retires!

[@UltimoDragon83]

It's a common tactic to have an experienced keeper as 3rd choice now. They can play as the overaged player in the u21s and don't moan about games. Hennessey, Carlo Nash. He's providing experience and likely helping to coach youth keepers
