We have the best papers. Always said it. Nice to have it confirmed. We must have updated them since the kieftenbeld fiasco!

Steve How Hard? Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 His sister Meg thinks it's a good idea too. She seemed very excited about it too. Crewton and Carl Sagan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I would put him I the top 3 of GKs we could sign this summer and up there with Rodak. I felt we'd be priced out of both, but maybe not. An excellent shot stopped and no real weaknesses if my memory is correct. A reliable passer (both short and long), which will also be important in a Warne side.

And I’ll preface this with the fact I’m 6’5” and find it hard to gauge the height of people under six foot. But he seemed bloody tiny.

Will Hughes Hair Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Anyway, more top quality gaming analysis. I signed him on an old version of FIFA based on his stats. Binned him him a season later because he was only as tall as Eric Steele 😂 On that basis it’s Rodak for me. S8TY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTom92 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 (edited) Would prefer Iversen or Rodak as they’re both younger and better shot stoppers IMO. Ryan is good with his feet, but under Warne is that trait that important? Better than Wildsmith though so wouldn’t be upset with the signing.

Crewton Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 29 minutes ago, TomTom92 said: Ryan is good with his feet, but under Warne is that trait that important? I'd say yes it is, because there were quite a few games last season when posters were complaining about Wildsmith's kicking and a few times when he mishit a pass and caused some defensive problems as a result. Under Warne our keepers still need to adept with their feet. I wouldn't be too concerned about a goalkeeper "only" being 6ft tall, because they faster to get down to low shots but still tall enough to outjump outfield players. jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMuffin Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Class all round goalkeeper and good with his feet. Would be one of if not the best in the league Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, at his age he is probably a little shorter than he was in his prime too - age-related spine compaction etc. He's 70 by the look of it. Might have been 6ft in his playing days but less now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram1988 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I'd definitely be happy with Matthew Ryan as our number 1. Not sure what his wage demands will be though and if they will be affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
