bawan 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) If we sell Given and need a second choice keeper to come in I think Oleksandr Shovkovskiy would be a great choice. I don't think any of our youngsters are ready to step into the Premier League just yet. Who would you have. Here is just a little video with Oleksandr Shovkovskiy: Edit: Shovkovskiy is 33 Edited March 19, 2008 by bawan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 175 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Rene Adler of Bayer Leverkusen looks a good prospect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 10017 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Rene Adler of Bayer Leverkusen looks a good prospect Absolutely. He is having a great season and was very good in his first season last year as well. Neuer from Schalke isn't bad either, but has been struggling a bit this year after being incredible last season. His performance against Lisbon last week was absolutely world class though. Edited March 19, 2008 by Isegrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6940 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Given and Harper can hold the fort for me until Forster, Krul or the new Scandy steps up, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoog 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 IF we sold Given I'd alternate Krul and Forster as sub to Harper, that way they still get plenty of games with the reserves but are also there until we bring them to the fore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chigurh 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 It'll be an "experienced" (old, past-it) guy for a year or two to back up Harper until Krul is ready to step up, or maybe that other youngster we signed. Doubt Given will leave anyway. He's missed the boat in terms of a big move, not much of a step up available for him out there anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Don't think either Krul and Foster are near ready like. We definitely need a new keeper as well like, and if Keegan has big bucks to spend... However i don't see him buying anyone else just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusoda Kid 1 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Probably get Cudicini cheap enough, still got a lot to offer imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadrian 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Harper is more than good enough , ive felt so more comfortable knowing he's in goal when he's played this season , he's got given's shot stopping and a whole lot more to boot imo .

Guest alex Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Probably get Cudicini cheap enough, still got a lot to offer imo Doesn't command his area though, much like Given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22538 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 i'd give harper a go with krul as back up. i think htere are areas we need to spend money on before the keepers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fop 1 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Where's this Given leaving suggestion come from? I dunno. I can't imagine we'd get all that much for him now, and really if he gets his injury issues sorted out, I'm not sure why we'd want to sell him. Both Given and Harper should still be in their prime for goalkeepers and for a couple of seasons yet at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Jaaskelainen on a free would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gejon 2 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Jaaskelainen on a free would be my guess. What I was going to say, not had his best season at Bolton though from what I have heard (can't claim to watch all that many Bolton games). Was a good keeper though.

Park Life 71 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Wesley Snipes could do a job there imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6940 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Jaaskelainen on a free would be my guess. So we'd swap one keeper who has had 1 bad season for another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that really depends on if his injuries issues are something that can be operated on and sorted out (and just haven't been), or whether the damage is always going to leave him injury prone and/or less mobile no matter what is done to him. Probably won't get a clear idea until well into next season anyway I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
