Not a bad player but I think we could do with someone more technically gifted. Agree with this largely, however I'm thinking he is a pretty 'safe' option, and I genuinely think he'd have improved our squad for the better. But I know where you're coming from, he's never going to move to a top 7 club and cement a place is he? I think we'll pull a winger out before close of window, I'm excited to see who it is.

mulletsaint Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 if true, talk about knee-jerk! seemingly out to replace the whole defense after the weekend mauling. Didn't they just sign Rob Green? I like this bit from today's Guardian Rumour Mill. "Robert Green impressed Mark Hughes so much on his debut for Queens Park Rangers last weekend that the former up-and-coming manager has spent 15 hours every day since Saturday sacrificing trees to Zeus in a bid to gain favour with the child of Cronus and Rhea so he will provide Hughes with a keeper who does not chuck them in every week. So far the best Zeus has come up with is Internazionale's Júlio César who last made a decent save sometime around 2010 and thus should fit in with the club's strict policy of only buying players who are over 65 and who have been past their prime for at least 25 seasons."

BTW, seeing as you're one of those who have been criticising the club for their lack of interest in signing a CB, what's your opinion on the rumour from last night that we're one of two clubs who've had a bid accepted for Johnny Heitinger?

Thedelldays Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 Think we were right to stick with Kelvin. So many more expensive dodgy keepers out there you're probably better off with the one you know. look at the state of federici so far.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulletsaint Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 Heitenga would be interesting. Small but seems to do a good job most the time and has plenty of experience. Would be pleased. Not sure I've seen enough of him. Think he went through a phase of making mistakes at some point and seem to remember him dropping a clanger last season while watching Everton, but that wouldn't be the most reliable judgement.

Saint Scott Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 Felt bad for him. Lot of luck involved. If you get off to a bad start in your first game, it probably will make doubts creep in. So great that Kelvin did ok and Rickie has already scored to be honest. I'm sorry but Kelvin looked a nervous wreck against City, which to be fair is pretty understandable. However to say he did okay is bizarre. He spilled every shot that came near him, didn't deal with crosses and should of done better for the first goal. Although Davis is still a great keeper in my opinion and I think we have to stick by him and let him settle down. I think the Kelvin we'll see on Saturday will be a completely different man.
