It's so obvious even a new mediocre GK improves this team more than any other signing we could make. Honestly, we've never properly replaced Rob Green!

have we ever replaced Nigel martyn? we've had some decent keepers but never a real quality one

[quote="tad rhino":sv5h20c1]have we ever replaced Nigel martyn? we've had some decent keepers but never a real quality one[/quote:sv5h20c1] Casper Ankregan, Kasper Schmeichel, and Rob Green were excellent for the level we were at. Neil Sullivan was also OK, but apart from those, the rest have been dreadful. We let Ella Caprile go a couple of years ago, and now he's starting in Serie A and considered one of the best young keepers in Europe. He'd probably be our number one now if we'd have kept him.

I said on here before the season kicked off I'd have gone for the Icelandic lad who went from Rotherham to stoke for £1m. his stats are among the best at this level.

Trafford was excellent last night and like the Burnley defender said that he has no worries if he makes a mistake with a goalkeeper like him behind him to clean up the mistake. I only watched the second half but Sunderland looked good and should/could have scored 4 goals in that second half. Fe is a cracking signing for them.
