    Hmm
    Not necessarily - Sevilla have apparently reignited their interest in Casilla according to reports here this morning.

    Why not sell him, I mean, we've sold out best forward and centre half, we might as well sell the only experienced keeper we have.

    We could always try and persuade Rob Green to come out of retirement for once season?

    One thing you've got to say about Casilla is that he's not short of confidence and self belief, within first minute or so on Sunday was prepared to dribble around the striker. I'm quite getting to like him, he's going to frustrate the hell out of me and entertain me in equal measure this season I think.

    Yeah, although if his antics start costing us points then the 'fun' might wear off fairly quickly (especially given that arguably his mistake cost us the Derby play-off game - I reckon if we'd gone in at half time still 1-0 up - 2-0 in reality - Derby wouldn't have come out with such energy and purpose in that 2nd half).

    The bottom line with this keeper is that he cost us the game v Derby.

    He will continue to cost us games, just like Weidwald did that season.

    BPF was suspect on some crosses - he was a very good shot stopper.

    The fact is that if we want to win promotion, we should have a keeper who is secure and stable in all the facets of goalkeeping, and neither of the two of them can claim that - plenty of Championship and reserve Premier League keepers can.
    BPF is the worst shot stopper I've seen at Elland Road, my granny could get down to a shot quicker than him

    Unless whatever keeper comes in is better than Bpf, and able to challenge for No1, then its a wasted project.

    Clearly, whatever.role he has at Bumley, they think he's better.

    Just wish your blinkered, dogmatic, ignorant view was supported by the facts, then you might not be making such a tool of yourself.

    Do a bit of research, get some analysis of the period when BPF was keeper (you know, standard stuff, games played/shots/shots on target/goals conceded), and the same for the great god Casilla. I KNOW who comes out on top, I don't THINK it. But you just rock on with your deluded view, after all, you're Joel and everyone thinks you're some kind of oracle.

    Hmmmmmmm....
    In games played for Leeds United since the start of last season:
    BPF averaged 79.1 minutes per goal conceded
    Casilla averaged 81.8 minutes per goal conceded.
