    Definitely not... Barely even got game time for Bury.

    We need a keeper that is better than Gomes, not 'as good as' or worse because that would be a pointless signing. If we are looking to improve as a squad, we'll know we have when Gomes is on the bench. I'm not having a dig at him...It's just that he is getting old and he needs a quality replacement such as Neto, Patricio, Lafont, Meret who will at least give him competition... Unlike Pantilimon and Arlauskis who are reserve at best.

    I didn't click through on the article because it's the sun but..


    Realistically this would be for the U23s. He's home grown. Hes only 22, Looks a serious unit, likely as talented as Rene between the sticks but maybe more potential - It's a risk free punt.

    Our owners are well aware that we need to invest in a new No 1. Look to be making good moves for that too.

    Don't over read into links with players like these - We will always gamble on low risk potential like we did with Uche. Eventually one will work out and surprise us all.

    Already a done deal. @CaveManHornet he will be third choice so don't really see the issue with this one.

    This guy looks a bit like a cardassian (DS9) not to be confused with whining American rich kids.

    Providing 1 in 5 of his kicks in the warm up reach Gomes he's already an improvement on Gilmartin

    Guess as he's u21 he doesn't take a place but seems one of those random gamble signings we occasionally end up with

    Massive news. Accepted football wisdom, first get your third choice keeper sorted.

    He's not under 21. Not a gamble either, he's a very promising keeper.

    Good squad freeing up signing. Presumably he's good enough that we won't have to name a third slightly-less-useless-over-21-foreign-keeper in the squad to guarantee that our really-useless-fourth-best-keeper won't have to actually go on the pitch!

    He's homegrown without being born in the UK. Classic Pozzo's.

    3 years in stoke's academy should mean good hoofing pedigree

    Maybe he doesn't have a pathway to the first team there given Butland's pedigree? I wouldn't be shocked to see him as No 2 to Gomes if we don't sign a new first choice keeper this window.

    Sounds like a decent acquisition on paper. Nice news to wake up to on a Saturday morning!

    Almost certainly signed as a number two or three GK, but won't impinge on our 17 max foreign player quota as he is apparently classed as HG!
