Zero saves in FA Cup win
Trafford recorded zero saves and a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 FA Cup win over Chelsea.
Analysis: Trafford was not tasked with much in Saturday's win, as the goalie earned a clean sheet on zero wins as Chelsea was defeated. This now sees the young keeper lead City to two trophies this season, also starting in the 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Arsenal. However, he is still set for a role behind Gianluigi Donnarumma in most matches, leaving some questions for Trafford heading into the 2026/27 season.
Clean sheet against Liverpool
Trafford recorded five saves and a clean sheet in Saturday's 4-0 win over Liverpool.
Analysis: Trafford earned another start, making it two in a row, starting in both Cup matches before Donnarumma resumes his starting role in league play. He has now recorded a clean sheet in both Cup games, with nine saves between the two outings. Unfortunately for the keeper, it appears he is still set for back up role, hoping he can at least get the nod for their FA Cup semifinal against Southampton.
