I know we are just hearing PR from both sides but if even 1/3 is true, we need to stay far far away…. not that he was ever coming here.

 

PSG dug their own hole when they offered him that new contract with the terms they gave. Giving a player that much power over a club is criminal.

Kepa is a better shot stopper and makes less errors. 

Kepa couldn't stop a shot from a quadriplegic from outside the box, I've never seen a goal keeper struggle so much from shots outside the box.

Not sure why Gallagher gets so much hate.  He's literally what you want for a HG squad player who is actually keen on playing for the club.   

Unlike his buddy Mount who couldn't wait to join Manchester United for an extra 50k a week. 

Maybe he doesn't deserve hate.

But his ability (or lack of it) is frustrating to watch. Plus his lack of footballing intelligence.

He doesn't have great close control, but there are so many instances where he would choose to run into traffic and result in a turnover.

I'm prepared to give him another chance under Pochettino, especially because we are seriously lightweight in midfield., but I'm not holding my breath.

That horrible first touch and ball control doesn't look like something that can be fixed easily.

People can't actually say Kepa is bad and then want De Gea... 

Kepa is a better keeper than De Gea. 

i didnt say kepa is bad. he can be our number 1, i dont care about it. but if we are actually buying a second goalkeeper, de gea is pl proven and free. only question would be his salary.

let them battle it out for #1.

Have we not learned from all the "PL proven" players we've signed the last two years?

Unless we can pull off a keeper like Diogo Costa or Mike Maignan then I'm fine with Kepa for one more season.

He's gotten over the lowest of the lows and while he is by no means great, last season he also wasn't even half as bad as some are making him out to be.

We're never going to win the title or anything significant with Kepa between the sticks but that's hardly going to be our level next season anyway and Kepa on last season's form is IMO good enough for a team challenging for the European places.

Gallagher is like bit better version of Barkley - squad player to fill in with less sophisticated opposition, crucial difference is Connor (still) cares.

People being "fine with Kepa" giving me flashbacks to few years ago, when we had decent squad that could collect so much more points if we had GK anything like prime Mendy. Our memory is short, so I guess brace for surprise and frustration if we aren't getting new no1 or at least someone to compete for the spot.

I don't even think Kepa had a good season.

I think his good season isa myth.

We need a better goalkeeper.

I usually don’t address these things publicly, but you have had multiple people tagging your posts for racism and winding up members. There is a gangster look, I really don’t think a head band is the be all, end all of that look. I really would not think he does look gangster, but it is a subjective call. As to the wumming. I went back through your posts and it goes all the way back to when Frank Lampard 2.0 was about to happen. You thought Frank would help us to improve. That is the last positive post about the club or the owners. You are allowed to have your opinion. You have demonstrated you can give that opinion without turning the players names into slurs. If your posting style going forward is mostly negative toward the club and turning players names into slurs, you will not be posting at this site. It is a site for fans of the club to discuss the club, the men’s team, the women’s team, and the players. If you have a criticism of any of those things, that is fine. Just make that criticism without abusing the players or people running the club. There are plenty of fans that do not care for the owners, but we should be able to voice that without being abusive about them. 
 

OK I will collectively address this. I am sorry if my posts have offended anyone. I do not mean to offend or wind anyone up, I  just generally depressed and vent. I realise this board isn't really the place to vent but rather to voice opinions. Going forward, I will take your advice into consideration. Thank you!
