I would literally love to see that cos imo the guy is injury prone and while he is good at some things there are large gaps in his competencies.

for example:

sweeping up. excellent.
passing (short). excellent
passing (long). average
catching. average
shot stopping. average enough imo
penalties. excellent.

I maybe am harsh to him as he is up against alisson but I am trying to compare him to the other keepers in the the prem like Pope or sanchez or reya or lloris
Lloris <laugh>

Kelleher to you is what Milner is to Jimmy. <laugh>

We all know you're don't rate him. Echoing @Zanjinho, he doesn't get much match time and Keeper is that one position that match sharpness seems to matter the most and you notice it most when they don't have it.

IMO, Kellelher is probably the best backup keeper we've had at least for the last decade... Maybe longer.

(Maybe only exception is when Pepe got demoted to the bench when we signed Mig... And Reina didn't look good when he wasn't playing regularly... CK, just steps right up and performs right away)
 
Can’t blame kelleher for wanting to move. Way too good to be number 2 and at his age is time he starts being a number 1 somewhere.

It would be nice if we could do what city have done with a lot and insert buy back clauses. Sell for £15m with buy back of £40m. If he turns into brilliant keeper by time Ali is 34/35 might be a good club trained option to bring back

sell for 15??? you are very generous
 
Sometime Italian players don't do well in the premier league Nicola Berella. can be an exception.


I don't know if still true because I haven't watched much Italian football in years but serie A used to be the complete opposite of Premier League in terms of tactics.
 
2 goals and 7 assists from 34 games isn't particularly good and his form has been really poor
That's sort of the point, he's a midfielder whose main job isn't to score or assist yet he's doing it. How many goals and assists has our midfield produced this season?

Anyway, scratch what I said because I've only just realised he's on loan so will be going back to his club.
 
we need to stop paying what other clubs demand as half of them are now reliant on transfer fees to pay the bills . The new policy should be squeeze them and if they don't play ball move to next target..
Imagine the flak the club would get from some on here if that was their official policy.
"Missing out on our targets by being stingy and trying to bargain..." etc.
