    Mes has talent but he's still young let's face keepers mature in later life. I reckon in 5 to 10 years time he's going to be a fantastic keeper.

    In regards to a keeper, we probably need a big strong one who is good in the air and who has good positioning at set pieces. I’m confident we’re going to have a strong defence, our downfall will be the teams that look to sneak a goal from a set piece. I can’t see too many teams having many shots

    It always felt like the opposition were have three shots on target and three goals against us the last couple of seasons

    I think meslier would be fine as a keeper next season, just needs a proper settled defence in front of him, he did well under Bielsa, who had a fixed idea of how to play.
    The other managers didn't and it affected him as well as the rest of the team.

    Farkes teams are generally crap at defending and scoring set pieces so don't expect that to change <laugh>

    tru dat...

    We can expect the keystone cops defending of the last few years to continue unabated. Farke's sides rely on outscoring teams by having a 30 goal a season striker. So when we sign one of those we can all exhale <laugh>

    Angus Gunn is now in the frame after we missed out on Darlow

    In forest news. Anthony Elengda has agreed to sigh to Forest for 15 million.

    I'd prefer Gunn over Darlow and Messier

    I have no idea, which goalie is any good. Is Gunn just a journo link to Farke made up in the pub where most of these exclusives are from.

    We've been linked with linked with him well before farke, and I believe we have his old goal keeping coach running things at TA so it's a logical move

    My perfect choice would be Sam Johnstone. Palace's 2nd goalie. The one who made save after save against us in the 1st half at ER.

    Now that would be a signing and a half.
