and just cos we made a mistake THEN, its fibe that we repeat the same mistake!!!??

simply dont see the point of having mark as a 3rd choice keeper. like i said before, courtois will be loaned again or cech might be sold. otherwise it makes no sense.

Hey, I'm with you. Would rather have Blackman as 3rd choice. But I'm just stating the facts that we did do something very similar last season, so you can't really base any conclusions on this, imo.

Anyone know why he is back at Cobham?

I'd of thought he'd be on the pre-season tour considering he is more likely to be around the first team than Beeny and Delac (Who can't get a work permit atm)

He's been running a goalkeeping soccer school. I presume he'll either join up with the squad later or stay at Cobham and train with the academy sides until the first team return. He knows he's going to be back-up this season, and José will want to use the game-time to assess Cech and Courtois.

One man who was not at training was Mark Schwarzer. The Australian has a small muscular injury and has returned to England for treatment.

I knew about the goalkeeping school but that's hardly the reason he stayed behind.

Could we change his role to goalkeeping coach or something? Maybe for the youth. With Courtois and Cech, with all respect for him, I am still thinking we doesn't need Mark, he occupied one non HG quota, and better give the quota for Mikel. Prefer Blackman for the 3rd GK.

No, because Mark is going to be second-choice. Either Courtois will be loaned again, or Cech will be sold.

If Cech STAYS, then let Schwarzer go for free like what we did with Essien!
we need to cut number of overseas players by 1, and now Van Ginkel linking with a loan move because of this
so it doesn't make any sense to get rid of MVG when we have mark as 3rd gk and will not even make the bench!!

If Cech goes id like to see us spend on a HG number 2, Ruddy possibly.

Teams are starting to spend on high quality back up, Tottenham got Vorm in, Arsenal signed Ospina and City have Caberello. Mark last season actually reminded me of Hilario (who was better than given credit for) come in for a one off game, no problem but I felt he really struggled at the back end of last season playing a run of games.

Seems like both Cech and Courtois are staying, if so then Mark probably won't even see a minute of game time. Even so, we do have Blackman and Delac. They are promising goalkeepers.

If by some disaster we lose Cech and Courtois through injury I think we will be allowed to register Mark, even outside of January.
