Christ, utterly terrifying how folk are queuing up to write this kid off before he's truly had a chance to make a claim to the shirt. I have no idea if he'll be the new Carlo Nash or Big Nev incarnate, but give the guy a chance before crucifyng him!

Are you new to this forum.
You should know how it works by now.

If I remember correctly he basically had a clanger in both starts he got and that was it for him there as they weren't going to spend time waiting for him to get up to speed when they were always sending him right back.

I remember a number of Arsenal fans were very disappointed when they let him go.

Until this moment I had forgotten that is where he came from

I like him at just 21, but don`t think he will get as many CHANCES as dear old Tom !

....just from U23 games I’ve seen where he comes out & flaps at crosses, but you watch more at that level than me. I’ll certainly bow to your better judgement on this but I’ve never thought watching him that there is anything in his game to suggest he was one for the future.

Fingers crossed he’s what we need.

Fair enough, I was carefully non committal in my judgement, I know no more than you mate about his future progress, I’m just prepared to wait and see and not write him off yet .

....I’m not writing him off, especially a goalkeeper. I’d be chuffed & very pleasantly surprised, though, if he’s the answer.

Pickford is in doubt for the Euros ......

Wikipedia says he’s 6’3” surely that’s not right is it?

Feels right to me

Well he looks taller than Pickford who’s apparently 6’1” so yes.

Looks like he'll get the next 6 games for us which are absolutely crucial for us.

Lets hope be morphs into prime Southall.

Be sound if he could pop up with a few goals, and all.

Have we all decided he's Espen Baardsen reincarnated yet?
