On your line of thinking why would an experienced GK want to come to us just to be a No.2?If we’re still in the championship then yes? Possibly bell will have come on by then or maybe we bring in an experienced number 2? It’s a lot more sensible than signing a GK for 6 million when we’ve already got a very good one.
An experienced number 2 as in someone who has experience of being a back up. Someone fairly reliable but importantly cheap because he won’t be playing ideally.On your line of thinking why would an experienced GK want to come to us just to be a No.2?
If he does come to us on loan and proves he is an excellent GK it would be mental not to try and sign him. A GK can win/lose you more points than any other position. Look at the difference between Dovin and Collins.
I said if we win promotion and he is excellent. If we get promoted we would have the funds.What team in world football has 2 equally good goalies? Has a team ever been successful rotating their goalies? My point is that I don’t see the point in spending a decent chunk of our limited budget on a GK when in my opinion we already have a very good one.
can see the argument if we get promoted and he plays a big part. Without promotion though it’s a non starter.I said if we win promotion and he is excellent. If we get promoted we would have the funds.
Lots of clubs have 2 very good GK's. The higher up you go the more it happens. GK's do get injured. Last season we had both Dovin and Wilson injured at the same time. The injuries are not normally as bad as the one Dovin got though.
All of this means nothing yet though. He hasn't signed for us yet and we don't even know if he is as good as what we think. But if he is, that mentioned £6m would be a bargain and would shoot up in value.
Dovin would cost us £2.4m if all targets are met. That isn't a lot of money.There’s 1 team in the world imo who’s done that and it’s Liverpool. It’s not functional for us to have two high costing goalkeepers
It is if we don’t go upDovin would cost us £2.4m if all targets are met. That isn't a lot of money.
I’d imagine he’ll end up being worth a lot more than that. Also would have signed here to be a number 1.Dovin would cost us £2.4m if all targets are met. That isn't a lot of money.
And on the other hand if we got promoted and he has an excellent season his value could well go up unless we have an agreement at a certain price on promotion. Would we still want him if it would cost us £10m or more? If he had a great season there would be Prem sides interested.can see the argument if we get promoted and he plays a big part. Without promotion though it’s a non starter.
Would it be £2.4m if we don't get promoted?It is if we don’t go up
Well let’s be honest neither you or I know that.Would it be £2.4m if we don't get promoted?
I fully agree. But it doesn't mean we shouldn't look at bringing in the best players we can afford to.I’d imagine he’ll end up being worth a lot more than that. Also would have signed here to be a number 1.
I am being honest. It wasn't me who said £2.4m for a reserve GK in the ChampionshipWell let’s be honest neither you or I know that.
Which is the reason Wilson is ok at no.2 as long as he doesn't playWell it’s not the same because baring injury a good gk will play every minute of a season. No decent goalie is going to be happy as a number 2 here. It’s the same reason Kelleher has left Liverpool.
ffs re-read that, from that logic they may as well put sky blue sam as number 2 !!!Which is the reason Wilson is ok at no.2 as long as he doesn't play
Wake up man, it's you that needs to re-read it.ffs re-read that, from that logic they may as well put sky blue sam as number 2 !!!
Not if City get promoted.Of course a 12 month loan would be perfect. But how about in 12 months? Go back to Dovin and Wilson?
We were chatting to some Blues fans at Crewe yesterday and even they admitted they would prefer Ruhworth to Beadle. He would greatly improve us from what we have available right now
Since the early 90s we have been to a lot of Crewe games as our second team. So we go there 3-4 times a yearWhy'd you go to a Crewe v Blues match?

From the people who brought you "we don't want two quality right backs"
Comes "we can't have two quality keepers"
What a summer
Who has said we dont want two quality right backs?Movie trailer voice:

Quite a few on here. Just open your eyes. All over the place.Who has said we dont want two quality right backs?
No I have seen plenty of people saying a club our size WONT have two quality right backs and they fully expect us to sell MVE.Quite a few on here. Just open your eyes. All over the place.
We can't have 2 rbs competing as they'll get fed up on the bench.
We can't have another CM in Pereira unless we offload Sheaf, Allen and Eccles as they'll be too many!
And the meltdown over not 1, not 2, but THREE LBs. My goodness!

Bell would be loaned out and Collins will be put on EbayPotentially 5 keepers with Rushworth hopefully coming in
Tomato - PotatoNo I have seen plenty of people saying a club our size WONT have two quality right backs and they fully expect us to sell MVE.
Agree with Collins but free to collect in a FB group. Feel a bit for Bell. He has potential but we need more that potential with our immediate ambitionsBell would be loaned out and Collins will be put on Ebay
Potentially 6.Potentially 5 keepers with Rushworth hopefully coming in
Not as bad as the thread you started where 62% have voted they would be happy for Wilson to start the season and not bring in another GK. Collins as No.2No I have seen plenty of people saying a club our size WONT have two quality right backs and they fully expect us to sell MVE.
Would a 1p reserve be too high?Bell would be loaned out and Collins will be put on Ebay
Glad to see Lampard and the coaching staff agreed with the 38% of usNot as bad as the thread you started where 62% have voted they would be happy for Wilson to start the season and not bring in another GK. Collins as No.2
It's as though nearly 2/3 of us have forgotten what happened after Dovin got injured.
Not yet no. Decent sources saying we are thoughHas this guy actually signed?
No! Think he's away with Brighton!!Has this guy actually signed?
