He did have a good season with Kilmarnock but I'm not yet convinced by him. If we loaned out PD and got rid of Gomes we would need someone else in as third choice.
Happy with this news. Doesn't cost us anything other than wages and he is still a top quality keeper. If he can keep us up this year and give us one more good year next season, then I'm quite happy for him to hang around for the last year of his contract and pass the gloves onto Danny or Pontus.
Very good news. We need someone to fill the ageing, past his prime, nice guy to have around the club role. Now confirm another 2 years for Gomes.
Athletic suggestng we are considering short term deals for Gomes and Holebas . Presume they mean till the end of this "season"
Bit unfair.....he is mainly forced into it by our defenders who have all acceleration off the line of snails and the turning circles of the QE2.
He makes the odd clanger in a season, but he also makes the odd save he has absolutely no right to that most other keepers wouldn’t. A club like us will struggle to ever get better than him.
In a time when money will be thin on the ground, it makes total sense to keep him rather than have to spend out on a replacement. He’s more than good enough right now and is defying his age. I just hope the club finally get their act together with a succession plan. Not sure what’s happened to Dahlberg but if he’s anywhere near as promising as we believed, I’d like to see him brought back. I’m still not sold on Bachmann. Gomes needs to be 3rd choice if he sticks around.
I know we take the pi55 out of the club for giving old players new deals but this one makes sense. Like all keepers he will make the odd bad decision but has been excellent most of the time and is certainly still good enough. Nice chap as well I do hope Dahlberg is as good as people said and doesn't go down the Success and Peneranda route of producing a grand total of sweet fa
Foster is still our best keeper by some distance so extending makes sense. If we extend Gomes and Holebas beyond this season then it would be ridiculous.
Gomes I could understand if he was 3rd or even 4th choice combined with some other back room role. But with the idea of being anymore than that, no way.
Every keeper will make the odd mistake. Even the ones who at some point have been considered the best in the world (De Gea, Neuer etc) have made some right howlers. Yes Foster is sometimes too erratic coming off his line but overall he's been amazing for us
If you don't foster a better attitude I sherwood want you to put your coton and leave. You're not rankin very highly on here.
Probably our best player tonight but has unfortunately set a new unwelcome record. It’s the 13th time in a row he’s lost against City, the longest losing run of any player against the same opponent in PL history.
Been one of our best players these past two years, but errors are starting to creep in. Not sure whether it's age or a pathetic lack of competition, but is it time we move on from him? Let him sit on a Premier League bench next season?
Might not want to stay if a Prem club comes along. Whether he stays or goes, we do need two guys challenging each other rather than one guy comfortable in the knowledge that his place in the team is safe as houses
