I agree. But at least he conveys the image that he can make saves.

Nice kit. Looks better in daylight.

Ability aside the presence and confidence of a keeper can have a huge impact on the team as a whole. Collins looks petrified and ponderous. Only able to perform in the split second no thought scenario. Wilson looks confident and in control. It makes a difference

There’s no way we let Wright go for £10m. An international, on a long contract, good age profile and a proven 20 goal striker. We should be busting a gut to retain. But if we can’t it’s got to be 15-20m

Can’t see us getting another LB. KKH may well start there which would mean we’d have 4. Upgrade on a departing Binks or Lati would make sense.

So no more leeks about the Swede.

Yes, but if we spend shedloads of cash to plug all our inferior players we could start a new thread themed on having to sell the ground, playing in the bottom tier, never buying anyone, playing in other cities and generally being forgotten. And yes, I know we don’t own the ground, just added it...

What can be done about it? Force someone to sign Wilson or Collins? Demand a goalkeeper who doesn’t want wages from a club that doesn’t want a fee?

Not struggling with it at all. Just aware that there’s no way in the world we go in with 4 keepers. King won’t finance it and nor should he.

Can we have 1 years wages back off him then please. Being fit is the very least we should expect.

King as owner would be negligent if he allowed Lampard to sign keeper number 4. This is not about ability. It’s about the economics of it.

Wilson is fine as a number 2 keeper. And that’s who plays when your first choice keeper is injured. The alchemy Lampard needs to pull off is offloading Collins.

No, but we could easily have had conversations knowing how outgoing deals are shaping up.

In what crazy world would a team be expected to have 4 keepers. If we don’t offload Wilson or Collins one of them starts the season. Because the alternative is that a few short months later we have four “first choice” keepers on the books and that would be madness.

That stance makes perfect sense and to be honest it’s where the vast majority of clubs are.
