I haven't followed his career since he dropped out of the PL, but Kevin Phillips (who coached him at Stoke) reckons he's a liability, which is a bit concerning: [Link] It makes me question whether £4m is a steal if he is not even deemed good enough for Stoke. Maybe a move will bring out the best in him, or maybe we'll end up with someone even less reliable than Wayne. Butland has not played for Stoke this season.

Did I see that it's only 4m as his contract ends in June ? If so, that is a steal. I was informed last night that when Stoke signed him from Birmingham there was a 20% sell-on clause inserted in the deal.

He was great in the past, haven't seen him play for a while now. On top form, he's one of the best English goalies. As others have said Guaita won't stay forever so we are going to need to sort this. Henderson hasn't looked good enough. Hennessey is OK but injured so we are weak there. However, another squad place. Personally, would sell or loan Wickham and not renew a couple of contracts but that doesn't seem to be our style.

I bet no one can guess which other team wanted him?

Terrible keeper, how bad can Henderson be. I have seen this guy live and everytime, he makes a mistake. Leicester vs Stoke, he punched it in. That 5-0 game.....bloody hell he was at fault for all the goals. We are buying reputation instead of performance. Waste of money, put a scarecrow in goal over this guy. I also don’t think it’s fair in him putting him in the spotlight of the premier league where mistakes are magnified. I hope Hennessy recovers sooner rather than later (& I never thought I would hear myself say that)

I personally think that there's a good gk in there somewhere, and I think Hodgson will in time bring out the best of him. Time will tell!

Used to love Butland. But then he got injured, and never really got back to previous form. good backup, but not sure we'd want him as no.1 if Guita left. Really hope he can get back to his previous form, but that rarely happens unfortunately.

It seems, maybe, a hitch. According to 'Read Crystal Palace(weblog)' Stoke havent got a replacement in yet so may not sell. Again, according to the weblog, we will turn to Charltons Dillon Phillips. This is noway ITK, just reporting what i have read in 'Nesnow' at bottom of HOL homepage. Edited by eagleman13 (16 Oct 2020 1.36pm)
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |
