Rumoured John Ruddy

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Eh, what's wrong with Schwarzer?

Okay I do get this need for more HG players but signing someone to come into an area where we're already strong doesn't make sense. Even is Cech leaves, Schwarzer proved he's more than capable of being a back-up GK anyway. We've also got Jamal Blackman, who's by no means piss poor at all.

If we're going to be selling/bringing in players to satisfy our HG quota there's other players that makes more sense. For example, Mikel is one who could go with Matic, Ramires, Fabregas et al being suited for the central position.

We don't need Ruddy nor does Ruddy need us.

Preach.

He's homegrown, a decent keeper and would probably cost us with Courtois than we currently pay Cech and Courtois. We don't need him at the moment but next summer he'd be a decent purchase.

Homegrown GK is a question for next summer, not now. It will be hard to find someone who is good enough and is willing to be 2nd choice.

I still hope Courtois and Cech stay, but then again Petr is damn too good to be on bench
