Honestly, Bournemouth fans, this guy is insane. Saved 82% of the shots at goal, exceeded his expected saves by over 12 xg goals (expected to go in) and saved back to back penalties. I had the pleasure of seeing him live and it's not often you come away from a match seriously impressed with a goalkeeper but it happened every single match I saw Paulsen. I've got a video on my channel diving (pun intended) into the statistics of his first season in goal for the nix, compared to the previous number 1 - the stats speak for themselves and were a massive contributor to the Nix's successful season! 👏
Paulsen is the real deal. Incredibly skilled and talented. His penalty save percentage is 60%... crazy
As a fellow die hard Dorset born Cherries fan, now based just above Welly in NZ, I've been down to see the Phoenix play a couple of times this past season and one of the big talking points me and my friends discussed coming away from the last game was how impressed we all were with Paulsen - he is the real deal for sure and I hope he does indeed get his chance with us. He is confident, commands well and I'd feel far more confident with him between the sticks than Neto agogo oh no or Travers. UTCIAD! and Back of the Net!
I'm in Hawkes Bay and he'll be a big loss to the Phoenix. A real prospect. I'm not even a Cherries fan (Evertonian) but have followed this channel regularly. Hope he goes really well with you if he breaks through.
Am also Dorset born and now living in Wellington and couldn’t agree more!
Paulsen is absolutely unbelievable. I think Iraola will blood him in preseason with an open mind - wouldn’t be surprised if he wins the starting spot through that
As a die hard Nix fan, Alex Paulson going from a benchwarmer keeper to replacing Oliver Sail and getting a premier league transfer in just 12 months is crazy and Paulson is the future of NZ football
This kid is gonna blow your mind.
As an Adelaide United supporter and Bournemouth supporter since 1956, I would have loved to have him in goal for Adelaide. Having watched him all season , he is clearly destined for bigger things with AFCB.
Nice interview, cool to have someone with local knowledge of Paulsen.
Certainly knows how to save a penalty, he kept the top ranked high school side in Auckland to only 1/5 in a semi-final shootout a few years back!
Saints, Phoenix and NZ fan here but absolutely think he could start this coming or next season and the stats prove it. He prevented 13 goals v xG this season, 5 penalty saves, top 5% percentile GK under the high ball and crosses and as we know, unbelieveable on the ball. If he is leaving, I hope it's Hibs for 38 games in the premiership. Especially because I feel like Neto is on the way out.
A loved voice from the past in the days of the BOTN podcast. Brought back some lovely memories. Still a Cherry through and through.
Great keeper. For those that didn't know: Born in South Africa, moved to NZ age 4, grew up with his twin brother playing indoor football (which is exactly why he's so comfortable passing and playing out with his feet). Hope to see him starting at the Olympics in late July.
born in SA? damn, wasn't aware of that. I know he's got a Namibian mother and is still eligible for all three countries. my mate's sister went out with him once apparently
Good to see Sean again, worked with him briefly at Nationwide.
As a Nix fan. You guys are getting a gem of a keeper. Obviously won't come in right away but he's been much better than Mat Ryan (former Brighton keeper who came out of the A-League). Please manage him well
As a Liverpool fan I think he is going to be an absolute star for Bournemouth he has been brilliant for the Phoenix he's young he's very fit and agile and I can't wait to see how he gets on next season at you're club what a great signing
Big Phoenix fan. Paulson is a fantastic shot stopper. He’s a big reason why the pheonix ended up with in the position they’re in. Saved many crucial shots. MVP for sure for the season. Sad to lose him but it’s a great opportunity for him to play and develop at a higher level. Bournemouth just needs to play him.
Great insight from the legend that is Sean Barker. Good to hear those dulcet tones albeit with that kiwi twang getting stronger all the time! Go well buddy, catch up next time.
If he continues to develop you've got a gem there.
Paulsen is the real deal.
Any chance of a cheeky year loan please
Great singing for afcb
Interesting
Take care of our AP for us
An exciting prospect for sure, but he doesn't seem like the No.1 we need next season. Hopefully he gets some game-time even if he's put on loan
He'll be up here I think/hope
he's absolutely unbelievable, and considering the flux at GK I think there's a chance he could grab that no. 1 jersey in preseason (post-Olympics) and never look back. This was his first senior season so it's difficult to judge his ability in comparison to much more experienced competition, but he's never had a bad game and always looked vastly superior to his peers so there's always the chance that he's naturally far too talented to be in the A-League but just hasn't had the opportunity to leave yet. this would mean he's already talented enough to slot in at a high level, but I still think he needs that period of acclimiatisation at Hibs/a Championship club to graduate fully
I can guarantee he will be Bournemouths number 1 next season. I can also guarantee he will be sold for £55million in 3 years time. Come back to this comment when all becomes a reality
Future investment?
People forget we signed mckenna!
Who's he when he's at home.
Joe Gauci is a better keeper and Aston villas third choice.
Joe Gauci is definitely not a better keeper 🤣
Yeah good waffle mate, Alex Paulsen is far better
Brilliant this season for the Phoenix. 2 million is a snip.
