Thread: Goalkeeping

  1. #1

    Goalkeeping

    Do we let one go ? Maybe bring in another or bring our own through the ranks ?

    We have far too many.

    Dubravka
    Elliot (he could go)
    Darlow (he could go too)
    Woodman
    Harker (plays most of the u23 games)

    We did let Paul woolston go... he then joined man utd I believe after a trial.

    Potentially tie one down to a bigger deal and let one go in January for a reasonable fee as both contracts are up at the end of the season.
    It's pointless buying in another keeper as a bench warmer. We either offer both an extended deal or at least one of them and bring through Freddie Woodman whose contract also expires at the end of the season.

    It's not beyond the realms of possibility to keep them all as all are capable stand ins.
    It comes down to which one's prefer to sign a new deal or want first team football.

    Think we'll see Elliot go and Woodman out on loan.

    Elliot is happy to stay as cover. Darlow needs to go.

    Darlow will be off then (as you say) if Elliot is happy to stay as cover.

    Should get a few million for Darlow i'd of thought.

    Yes - Ellliot as number 2 but Woodman needs to be brought along near the first team. He’s proven himself and should be given a chance in cup games IMO, with a promise of advancement if he does well.

    He was given a chance in Forest game wasn't he?

    That's only cup game we've had so far

    True. If he gets the cup games - that’s 2 games per season max.
