Sorry, I should have responded to this at the same time but of course there is. I can guarantee the club will be considering a load more data on keepers than what is being quoted here.
In terms of shots your facing their isn’t really. They’ll watch every goal he concedes to find trends and stuff but xGoT is xGoT it doesn’t change
 
No I think they are very well aware of it. The report that came out last week about us looking for a 'placeholder' GK after missing out on longer term options (Bulka, Petrovic), kind of makes sense with Ramsdale, if the fee is low. He'll save what he's meant to save and concede what he's meant to concede.

I never actually saw that report other than alt ending saying it, great YouTube videos but can't imagine he's itk - do you know where I could find that original report?

he was extremely tenuously linked the other day. That said, our other Belgian signing Talbi kinda came out of nowhere and this might be the same.

However Lammens has been linked with Utd, Spurs etc so he may well have already turned us down and biding his time.

I live in hope it happens!!

Club has been great at keeping things underwraps.
 
Tbf looking at the alternatives on the market id almost just say **** it and pay if it's €25m they want.

Need a reliable goalkeeper and 2 solid CBs and we are in a significantly better place, I've definitely come around to spending a lot of what's left to maximize those 3 positions as it's such a difference maker.
Same here, i think we can use the loan market for another midfielder or 2 (depending on who leaves)

Same, he has the highest upside of all the GKs we've been linked with - and I don't think it's close

I do think Petrovic and Bulka are both a level above him at the minute but he is younger

He's a PL calibre GK already and I hope we'd be all over that

We've been scouting the belgium league for a while so hoping we've been scouting him

I think he has a bit of Tommy Sorensen about him
we best get either Arokodare, Ivanovic or David if we have been scouting that league man please haha

We'll agree to disagree.

I'm not disputing that xGoT is xGoT but it's possible to drill further.

Exactly, attackers and midfielders are usually what the top clubs look to loan out for game time - probably enough money for another player or two (after this hypothetical new GK and 2CBs) but then you fill any remaining gaps with the loans market.
 
Would you not look to use the loan market for a place holder rather than committing a chunk of your budget and PSR manoeuvrability?
That's what I would do yeah. But I suppose with the fact he's English and despite pretty poor performances he's hovered around the £20m fee across his career so I don't think he'd lose too much value in a year or two unless he's a complete disaster.
