Of course.

But he's also a 31 year old journeyman keeper at a yo yo club

And the fact that some people would prefer that type of keeper to Picks says a lot

And none of them are an improvement IMO.

The only one I could think of is Henderson. But he's got his eyes to stay at United, signed a new deal, and will cost more than £30+mill

Even then he had a clanger in him

Koeman paid £30M for a clown.

Investment for a 22-23 year old at the time we bought him.

Signed a new deal in December until 2024. Bigger clubs are looking at him like Barca.

He'd cost a bomb.

Nah, not for me. Bundesliga keepers aren’t all that expensive. Leno was rated as one of the best and moved to Arsenal for under £20m.

Which turned out well.

There are lots of good GKs out there who can perform better than Pickford.

He had a £22mill buyout clause and about a year left on his contract. Leverkusen bought someone else to replace him before they sold him.

For a price that we shouldn't be investing in compared to other areas.

How’s that go against my point? I can’t think off the top of my head any keeper in that league being sold for much.

You build form the back. Pickford being here means we're building on sand.

Which is fine.

But the one you highlighted signed a new deal recently and if he's any good...that tells you he's not gonna go for buttons

For once dave I’m going agree with you. He has become the biggest liability in the team. Seems to make the hard saves look easy and the easy ones that myself (being a Sunday league keeper) could save hard. The guy has the biggest ego to boot when in actual fact he’s a bellend
