City set to sign Ben Hamer

@SkySportsPeteO: Leicester City are closing in on the signing of Charlton goalkeeper Ben Hamer. #LCFC #CAFC http://t.co/oUnX16JUX5

Hopefully this is the end of Conrad Logan and not Kasper Schmeichel

 

Wouldn't be that cross if it's the end of Kasper.


Cheap, young and very talented. Of course i'd like to see Kasper stay with us but I think this is probably the next best thing.

 

Hamer is nowhere near the class of Schmeichel. Its vital we keep Kasper IMO

 

I wouldnt say its "vital"

 

I would. Our first priority has to be staying up. Without David Marshall Cardiff wouldnt even had a sniff of staying up

For a side who is going to be in then 10 teams that can go down a class keeper can make a big difference

To replace Kasper who be very hard and not cheap. Hamer isnt as good as Kasper

 

I hope so as well - from what I've seen Ben has potential but isn't good enough for the Premier League.

 

... also being linked with Speroni ....

 

We won't get Speroni, but if Schmeichel does go then we should go all out for Marshall, though I suspect it would be a tough battle with many others. I'll be especially annoyed if we lose one of the best players of recent years on a free, but he's going to have plenty of sharks circling while there's uncertainty over the contract.

Can't say I know much about Hamer really, but he's highly rated, though at 26 I'd want him to be up to standard now, really.

 

I would have Kasper over both Hamer and Speroni

 

Who else in the PL wants a new keeper? I think we could get Marshall if we wanted him.

 

Clearly the end of KS you'd think then - he wouldnt be a back up

 

Hard to say if this is to replace KS or to fight him for a position, i certainly hope that its to give KS some competition next year.

 

Not many, we need a 3rd choice goalkeeper as back up to Mags and Oxley, but it'll probably be some randomer from the lower leagues. I quite rate Wes Foderingham, I woudn't be displeased with him.

If Stoke hang on to Begovic, Butland might be available to loan? He's had a good season with the Scum and he's always looked decent. Had a few England call ups too.
