I never, ever want to buy another player from Liverpool. ...

We've given them the best part of 60m quid for 2 of their rejects that's why.

Sakho is class. If they rejected him because they didn't like his face, more fool them.

The Ferret

Right-footed keeper.

I recall having a conversation about Johnstone maybe 2 or 3 years ago and was informed that he was working hard on his distribution.
Evidently his distribution at present is good and he is capable in one-on-one situations.

I understand his Father was a keeper for Preston but I cannot recall his name or seeing him play.Sam himself played for Preston, signed on Loan from Man Utd by Simon Grayson.

Man Utd apart from De Gea and Romero have a young keeper called Joel Castro Pereira and also young Dean Henderson who is on a season-long loan at Shrewsbury.Also young Kieran O'Hara who has just signed a new contract.

Can we not just buy an actual improvement on the guy who's been here over 10 years.

Then buy a player who's an improvement on the one who's been here for about 5/6 years.

Then buy a player who's an improvement on Nameless No Striker who's been here 6 months.

And we can all be happy and hopeful of no atrocious distribution, no staying on your line like it's 100m Olympic final, competition for position, and a sub who's played around the important box area for hopefully a decade in his career so knows where to be to kick the round thing in the oblong shape at critical times

Whoop whoop
