    Kepa is fine but he worries me a lot, and with Willy looking to move on, we should start thinking about someone soon. Funny how in most positions, teams look for 2 players per spot, but Goalkeepers have a "back up" who is rarely the same quality. Good ones are hard to find, and up and comers never get enough game time.
    I see Jamal Blackman is recovering at Vitesse, what are his long term prospects??

    The issue is a good goalkeeper doesn’t need to be changed. Subbing a goalie is pointless. You can’t have two world class keepers in a team.

    Also decent keepers dont normally stay decent when they are just long term bench warming.

    Exactly, twice in recent history we have been in that situation and twice it has resulted in one of them leaving.

    Cudicini ****ed off when we signed Cech and his place got stolen
    and in turn Cech did the same thing when Courtois ousted him from the starting XI

    I hope Kepa is putting in some work with Cech !!
    Kepa goes from brilliant to risky in a blink, which I hope it's just his youth. We do need to look for a back up though, they are pretty difficult to find and Willy has said he's off.
