    Darlow

    Whats going on with him? Is he injured or does Rafa just not fancy him, Woodman is obviously highly thought of.I wonder if hes turned down a move somewhere and is paying the price now, thought Boro were interested.

    someone said he was injured, but I can't find any confirmation of this

    Not sure Rafa's keen.

    Canny enough 'keeper in some ways and may come good but doesn't inspire huge confidence in the way he fails to command his box.

    It's funny with Darlow. He did well in the fizzy last season and I don't have a bad word to say about him (yes, he's got things he can improve on but so does Elliott), and yet I somehow don't think he's right for us.

    He's only improved since he got here, but I'd rather start Elliott in games and slowly introduce Woodman to the team. Which leaves Darlow out of the equation. Regardless of what happens, I wish him all the best as he's served us well, but it feels like his time has come to an end.

    woody will be our number 1 in the next two seasons
    he turned down 3 offers on deadline day
    apparently he has been given assurances

    he is a great keeper

    I'd be happy with that

    but hope he doesn't think he can just sit back without working at his game

    Aye - I've heard that as well.

    One of the England coachs does stuff with him outside of training doesn't he?

    Who were the offers from? Spuds, Palace and Everton?

    In 3 years Elliot would be 34/35 so would make sense.

    arsenal were one so were spuds others inquired but those two made definate moves .

    we were at golf a few weeks back and you can really see a noyiceable differance in his physique
