    All a bit up in the air as they seem hesitant to sell

    But a player must believe in himself. Assert himself.

    When Hendo went to Liverpool, and found Rodgers replacing Dalglish, he couldn't get a look in. Rodgers tried to off load him to Fulham as a makeweight in a transfer. Hendo refused, eventually got in the team when there was a bit of a flu outbreak, and just made himself a fixture.

    It's down to the player too.

    Things have definitely changed though ... and in a very short space of time.

    We were rated as the worst team in the PL and now we're not ...

    ... two or three more signings, like this, and the odds will change again.

    Of course it'll be tough, half of the PL will be in a relegation battle.

    So this is from a highly rated scout in Holland about the GK:

    Great goalkeeper, talented one for sure!

    Was goalkeeper for Netherlands u21. I like him. Great reach, calm under pressure, can play with his feet as well

    Really rate this guys opinion so this has got me excited as he doesn't hype players up often

    That keeper we are linked with looks canny, the only thing missing from that Youtube clip is him taking any crosses

    Yep. Coupled with a good coach, should drive both on.

    Claiming crosses is never really on a goalkeeper’s highlight reel tbf. Seems to always just be reaction saves.

    You'll be glad to know he is in the 99th percentile for crosses stopped

    What i have noticed with this lad and the other keepers linked is he doesn’t parry the ball out in to dangerous areas he keeps hold of it.

    I’d love to see what year 10 looks like on KLD’s 10 year plan that he presented to Xhaka.

    Always handy! As with all of them apart from Xhaka, I know nothing at all about him!
