IF Wilson was to go, reckon we could make a cheeky bid for Ethan Horvath? Got 20 clean sheets last season and I’m doubtful he’ll start for Forest next his season as they’re after Henderson.

Do you not think if that was the case Luton would just buy Horvath themselves seeming as they had him on loan last season? Your idea doesn’t make any sense

Think Luton had an option on him which strangely they haven't taken up.

Because similar to Wilson people don't think he's very good. Luton also had a great defence like us that shielded him well

He isn't all that.
Much like Wilson, the clean sheets record is largely down to the defence of the whole team. Of regular starting keepers, he faced the fewest meaningful shots against him.

Wilson improved massively as the season went on & is a much better keeper.

Any data driven GK recommendations? Anything on this Collins lad?

Barnsley fans seem torn on if he’s any good. Sounds very Marosi: good distribution, but Dracula like on crosses.

Wilson was genuinely very decent last season.

And not just in a 'did way better than the low expectations we had of him' way, but he was genuinely a very solid keeper.

The often mentioned Viktor Johansson of Rotherham has pretty good stats i believe.

He’s my pick, but partly so he’s convince Vik to stay and that horse has bolted

If he came you might still get Vik in the crowd at least.

I like him. Imo he's not like Marosi in that he stays rooted to his line, he will often look to come & claim. Happy to leave his area to deal with long balls & distribute (sweeper keeper you might say). Only 26 but with a lot of experience, I suspect he'll be a great rival for Wilson.

I'd take £3.5m for Wilson right now, and I can do same day delivery.

From Barnsley’s relegation season but gives a decent analytical view of Collins:

Interesting analysis posted on Twitter, which gives a very good graphical analysis of what we've all witnessed this season with regard to how much...

Be a shame to lose him all the same, just to set the record straight

Worth noting on their forum, one of their members suggested we had been in talks with Kitching and had a bid of £2.9m turned down.
