foster = shit
lloris = no chance
buffon= no chance
neuer = no chance
begovic = no wont join
given = happy to sit on bench says it all, and not good enough

gomes will do for me. shocking mistakes but harry will need to spend money wisely this ummer and dont think keeper position is a priority unless he actually sells him

We need to improve the team in more than one area this summer.

I can't believe people aren't mentioning Akinfeev, he's one of the best around. Besides him there's also Steklenburg and Adler who would be improvements.

We can get any one of those three imo.

It looks like it's just me and you Boris. Akenfeev or the dutch guy for me. Both very realistic improvements

Seems like even the great Neuer is capable of the odd cock up now and then.

Anyone see Neuer's performance tonight ?

I really rate the fella, but it just goes to show how precarious a goalies job is doesn't it ?

Yeah he had a mixed bag tonight, some good saves but a few glaring mistakes.

Actually on balance he had a bad night overall.

Neuer...

But if (and it's still at best an if) he is Bayern bound, then I would take their current Nr.1 Thomas Kraft.

He's young, has been keeping Joerg Butt out of the team who was technically their 1st choice keeper and is thought to be challenging to be in line for the Germany jersey if he keeps it going.

So a bit of a Joe Hart.

I think we should stick with Gomes but move Cudicini down to number 3 and get a young keeper like Wayne Hennessey from Wolves in,to push Gomes for the number 1 shirt and keep him focused.
If he fucks up,he gets dropped the same way as any of our outfield players would.

When do our outfield plays get dropped for fucking up? I haven't seen this.

Lets have a reality check here with Gomes...he is a top class goal keeper, he does make the odd mistake (a few to many this season yes) but to replace him with whats currently available is a step down IMO.

As mentioned above Neuer against united conceded 6 goals tbh didn't look that great at old trafford.

I hear Ian Walker is coming out of retirement to be player/manager for Bishop's Stortford.
Sign him up!

Thing is some gks do carrying making mistakes while others cut them out as they mature. If Gomes can cut out the mistakes there is no-one better.

He is hardly a spring chicken now though and has had a few years in the Premier league yet has so far been unable to cut these mistakes out of his game
