Jussi Jaaskeleinen

[Tomo 21,733]

There is an error when i have tried to post this in the transfer thread and won't let any one access the page so ill post this on football banter instead.

He has just been released from his contract with Bolton.

Im wondering with Chelsea fans in general not trusting Hilario and especially Turnbull if Cech gets a long term injury.

Baring that in mind would Jussi make sense as a short term number 2 until Courtois finishes his loan deals?

He is very experienced in Premier League football, he was one of the best keepers in the league a few years back (in my opinion) and if the worse was to happen and Cech got a long term injury with Courtois away on a season long loan, we are choosing between Hilario and Turnbull, it would be much for comfortable for us if a experienced PL goalkeeper can just come and slot in, no?

At 37 he will be nothing more than a stop gap until Thibaut has finished his loan programme so don't see any harm in offering a keeper of his experience and quality 1 year contracts until the Belgium is ready to come and push Cech for number 1.

why not

Would love to have him as Cech's backup, there hasn't been a Finnish player at Chelsea since the days of Mikael Forssell.

Not going to happen though because as far as I know he's going to West Ham.

I didn't even know that, doesn't surprise me with Big Samuel being there.

Why no instead of Hilarious & Turnbull.

Think's he already off to West Ham. They're letting go Robert Green and taking in Jasskeleinen.

By the way, Craig Gordon is a free agent now too you know.

Alex posed the question on Twitter about Robert Green. Him, I'd say no to. Gordon, definitely yes.

Doubt that Gordon would be satisfied with sitting on the bench all the time.

I'd burn my nipples off to sit on the same bench as Eva, ungrateful sod.

I read that Jaaskeleinen goes to West Ham instead to Green..
