JORDAN PICKFORD has revealed what’s behind his bizarre facial expressions and admits he mumbles his own CHANT during games.
The Everton and England goalie has become a hit with fans thanks to his trademark antics and wild facial expressions on the pitch.
Pickford regularly winds up opponents with his madcap behaviour.
And now, he has lifted the lid on the inspiration behind them.
Incredibly, Pickford insists his bizarre antics are nothing to do with mind games.
He claims it is simply the way he demonstrates being “fired up” for a big moment.
And the ace, who recently signed a new Toffees deal, even adds he’s not even aware he’s doing it most of the time.
Pickford told the Men in Blazers podcast: “That’s for me, it’s my zone. That’s just me getting fired up and getting in that moment.
“The beforehand is me psyching myself up and getting ready for it. Sometimes I don’t even know I’m doing it!”
Meanwhile, Pickford also opened up over Everton fans singing his name at the club’s new Hill Dickinson stadium.

He loves being serenaded by the Toffees faithful when he’s having a good game in goal.
But Pickford has also admitted he sings along to their chants of “Jordan Pickford’s dynamite.”
He added: “I love it. I sometimes mumble it to myself in the game when they’re chanting.
“As a football fan myself, if I was in the stands, that’s me, I’m chanting all the way for 90 minutes.”
Elsewhere, the England No1 admits he wants to win the World Cup next summer — as long as Donald Trump hands him the trophy.
The US president stunned onlookers when he celebrated Chelsea’s Club World Cup victory alongside Reece James and Co.
And Pickford hopes that Trump joins in the party should Harry Kane lead England to glory in the US next summer.
Pickford said: “(My dream is) lifting that trophy. And Donald Trump giving it Harry Kane after!”
