I'll back the club if they think he's the best the club can afford / attract right now.
Think he's someone our fans will either love or hate though.

And very big wages. Could end up at Utd, they like an older, expensive guy there!
I wonder if the new GK coach has had a say too, surely he will advise on keepers or at least add a bit of his input in recommendations
10-12 rising to 15 is all I’d pay
All about the transfer fee for me, he's just never a 20+ plus GK imo
I'd def trust the club if we did sign him
Tbh, I’d hope not, he’s there to an improve a keeper he’s not a scout nor has he necessarily worked with the level of keeper the club want to move forward
He's worked with the current best goalkeeper in the world (according to FIFA)
He'd definitely get some input like. Whether they listen to it or act on it, but they'd be silly to have a goalkeeping expert in the club and not solicit his views
True, if the club sign him though then they must have saw something or at least are confident we could get him to a top level
**** English tax. Target a foreign keeper if you can’t get him around that fee
just my opinion, his stats are shocking except when he was at Arsenal facing good shots for him every game
He has but who else? We can’t buy Martinez the other options are what Sam Johnstone? At two clubs I think?
You could my point anyway
I'm kinda relaxed about the fee as I know the club won't be taken for a ride. And if they've identified Ramsdale as the best option (I wouldn't have), we also don't know who option 4 is if we decide against Ramsdale. I don't really want the club being massively tight about transfer fees to miss out on the player they want.
That said, I'd prefer it to be no more than £15m

Not saying we should sign a player he's worked with. Just that he will be able to help identify what makes a good goalkeeper. The way David Preece used to. He will be able to help inform our scouts rather than do the scouting himself.
Is the ramsdale link even credible, all I’ve seen is Southampton fan page and talk sport

His match ratings were quite good mind last season near the end
Haway mate don’t judge signings on match ratings he’s going to get high ratings because he’ll have 10 saves a game to make at Southampton
Ben Jacobs & Alex Crook (I think) said we were looking at him as an option
Also fans of the club he's been at rate him, that's a decent barometer for me.
I don't particularly want him but we could do a lot worse.

I'd be surprised if we hadn't asked our newly appointed goalie coach for his opinion on a goalie we are close to signing.....if indeed we are.
