    Yes, i know, i know...

    The sun is a **** paper, but over the last year or so, i've gotten a massive impression, that Forster would only want to come back if he's our number one keeper, and he seems to love Celtic.

    He'll also have the chance to play in the CL with Celtic next season, no matter how short the run maybe, i think he probably wants to stay at Celtic. For his own good, should we let him go?

    I think his situation is like Routledge, he wouldn't make it in the starting 11, but he's a great player, and it's unfair to keep him on the bench. I'm thinking of the lad here. Some birds aren't meant to be caged, and i think he's shown great potential, and if he comes back and is on the bench for most of the season, i'll be very annoyed and feel sorry for him.

    I think Krul was good, made some excellent, vital saves to keep us in games, like in the ARSE away match, and the Liverpool home game, he did little wrong. Let's give Krul more time. I think Harper has more time in him, keep Krul as back up and give him game time now and then. And perhaps let Soderburg have some game time in a cup game?

    He's still young and many goalies get their break in the first team later on in their career.

    One season as a number 2 at the club that pays his wages isn't going to kill him.

    Better to have 2 potentially good keepers in reserve competing to be the future of the football club than just have a keeper in waiting until Harper retires.

    pards needs to look at the 3 of em, pick the best 1, keep one of the others and let the other go.
    if he lets Krul or Forster go then hopefully it'll only be on lone but i doubt we can keep them both for much longer

    This.

    We won't know who's better until we get them both in training and then Pardew can take his pick.
