He was definitely our best 'keeper last year. Saying he was our best player seems like a stretch when compared to Fernandes.

Personally I think ramsdale was more important to us then fernandes was .. fernandes only had 3 goals 3 assists whilst being good on the eye his play didn’t really help us a lot .. Rambo stopped us getting some absolute hammerings and was a big factor in the games we did pick up points

I think we'll have to disagree on that one. Ramsdale's save percentage was 65% last season for us. This season, for Newcastle, it's 61% which is the third lowest in the league. The top keepers in the premier league have a save percentage above 70%.

For a much smaller sample size - McCarthy had a save percentage last season of 68% in the Premier League.

Whilst the stats are usually a good indicator I’m not sure this matches up in the same way it does with baz . Looking back through the ramsdale thread most people seemed to think he was super and how it was a shame we finally got the gkposition right but in a shit team .. I can’t be bothered to go back and analyse every goal but I’m sure the suicide passing around the back line didn’t help his stats

I would want Peretz rather than Ramsdale to be our goalkeeper next season. 

He’s good enough. Then add that his wages will be far less and we could get a decent fee for selling Ramsdale, it’s a no brainer. I wonder if it rides on us going up though, he may well have better offers if we don’t

Ramsdale is a good prem level keeper, and Peretz looks like he is. The deciding factor for me is communication, and Peretz wins here. Since his first game he has been constantly talking to / positioning central defence through to central midfield every game, and is a huge part of our overall defensive improvement. You can see the appreciation the likes of THB, Stephens, Bree, Manning and Downes have for this.

Adam B saying we’ll sign Peretz on promotion. 
 

 

 

It’s a bit of a non news story. 

We can all see and predict what’ll happen if we get promoted. Just easy clicks for most journos nowadays.

Yep. We have the option, and he's been brilliant. Of course we'll sign him if we go up. The question is whether we'll sign him if we don't. We should absolutely be looking to secure the Larin and Peretz signings if we stay in the League, then hope we don't lose too many of the other gems.

Baz can be his back up. No? Ok, no.

I was pleased to see it confirmed. I wasn’t sure we’d want him and ramsdale if we went up, and we will have Ramsdale unless we can shift him, which I though might mean it’s not good news for holding on to Peretz.

Ramsdale would go - but having Ramsdale and Peretz as our two keepers (hypothetically) would have to be one of our best GK pairings in our recent history. With Baz as a third.... OK no.

The financial reward and status upgrade is the only reason I want promotion. 

Losing to the same teams, and seeing new ways that VAR ruins the spectacle will make it feel like we never left. 

But that's what we must aim for. Sadly.

Could be wrong but I think we'll be far better equipped to make a go of the Premier League under Tonda than Russboy who, as we all know, had only one way of playing which left us badly exposed when constantly trying to play out from the back.

Indeed it was playing the shitty Russ game that killed us at the start.

Its all about confident and ours got shot very, very early.

I’m pretty confident Ramsdale will be shifted on. He won’t want to be here.

to where? That's the issue.

It's not even for an upgrade that I want promotion now it looks close. I really don't fancy the PL.  Far fewer games for a start, and constantly messed about by TV and other clubs' european games. Plus bloody VAR.

But it's more that if we don't go up, we'll probably lose some of our best players.  And gradually go into decline to become a mid-table so-so club.

 What's better .... a so-so championship club or a yo-yo PL/championship one? 😒

We've already beaten the same number of PL teams this season in the FA Cup as we did last year and given Man City a scare at Wembley. Compare with the eventually-routine drubbing Liverpool gave us as a Championship side and the writing was on the wall before last season began. It will be a tough season but if we can build on what we've got and not bring in dross like Fraser and Lallana, there are reasons to be optimistic about next season if Tonda can do the business in the playoffs.

He’ll have takers, it’ll be about how we shift his wages off the books.

IF we get promoted we aren’t keeping Peretz and Ramsdale.

We're going to need to rebuild the whole glovesmen department, hopefully we can shift Baz, McCarthy and Long out of contract so we'll need 3 new goal custodians if we can find someone stupid enough to take Baz.
