    I think Al Habsi and Sorensen would(depending on what other offers they got), the other three might be a little more problematic.

    I don't know why we are making such a fuss over a goalkeeper who is unproven at Premier League level. The way some of our fans are going on you would think we were talking about his old man in his prime!

    You seem to have the wrong impression there mate - we are grateful to you for taking old Square Head back as we certainly wouldn't be where we are today with him in charge :D

    Goalkeeping is totally different. If you are a good goalkeeper then you will do well in any divison.

    We all know Kasper is good enough, the media have now acknowledged Kasper has created his own reputation and the scouts know he is more then good enough.

    We lost that game 5-1, so we pretend it never happened.

    I'd far rather get Mannone than Schmeichel, because he is the superior goalkeeper. You're welcome to disagree although bare in mind that you are the same person who thought Hull City would not make the top 6, so you'll have to forgive me for thinking that your opinion is frankly a load of ****e.

    To be fair, he only played a handful of Premier League games, before Man City sent him to Coventry.

    15 Premier League games and 8 Champions League games.

    You must have big hands.

    The reason many of our fans are keener on Mannone than Schmeichel, is simply because they've seen him play more often.

    It's hardly a surprise.

    Personally, I'm much keener on us signing a keeper with an established Premier League record, than either of them, now is no time for us to be taking a punt.

    When we bought Kasper, the City fans all came over to 606 to congratulate us on a cracking signing. Not one of them or the Notts fans had a bad word to say about him. City only sold him on because they wanted to build their dream team of world class players and Kasper has always demanded first team football. That's why he was willing to drop to Notts County and work his way up. Sven knew even back then that Kasper was too good for League One/Two and made him his first signing for us.

    There's no doubt that he's one of the best goalkeepers outside the top flight, but Leicester will prove hard to deal with. Personally I'd go for Mannone and either Moore (from Brentford) or Jalal (at Bournemouth).

    The thing is we dont want or need to sell. Kasper said how much he enjoys being here. The club have no interest in selling Kasper and he wont leave unless he asks to.

    If Kasper did leave we would pocket 5M+ so we can replace him with some change left over.
