Could u put my name about please see what's out there. Thanks Think you might need to have a look at least once at a player first before judgement, even then it can be wrong. Done that myself (although most were right about some of last seasons Latics import after 5 minutes). Edited June 26, 2019 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A keeper who has played 187 career games, all arguably at a higher level than what we currently play at (depends what your thoughts are on Scottish Football) is to me a solid signing and an encouraging one to boot. I am pleasantly surprised at the last two signings in Woods and Mills. I thought it would be extremely rare for us to sign English players and even stated that we wouldn't sign any given we had our required amount for a matchday squad already there. I am still expecting the #frenchlads to arrive and I hope they can bolster our squad with ability but we'll see. A loan of similar ilk to Iverson and Ripley, was what I expected. I doubt he is on their level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as loans can benefit the club, the stability of having the same keeper (should he be adequate) ready for the 2020/21 season is encouraging. I've always thought that you should have your own goalkeeper (Kelly, Pogliacomi), that said my opinion has changed slightly since we've had Iversen and Ripley. I've always wanted your loan players to dominate a game, a goalkeeper can't do that. Remembering loanees in years gone by, Kilkenny dictating play in midfield, Surridge scoring 1 in ever 2/3 chances etc. I also think loaning forward thinking players who can change games with flair and/or pace is where you should look to get them. 2 wingers, a centre midfielder and 1/2 strikers unless you can find your own. Just my opinion of course. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
