Gavin Bazunu | Joins Southampton on a permanent deal

He is getting crazy plaudits,made at least 10 saves apparently.
Could have done better for their goal but made a string of good saves, one in particular with his feet from Mitrovic. His passing was excellent, almost at at Edersons level. I don't think he's as good a shot stopper as Kelleher but looks like he has the Irish Jersey for the moment.
It would be interesting if we have a similar rivalry with Liverpool with the Irish keepers as we currently do with the Brazilian keepers
 
He'll be in demand next summer. My money is on a Celtic trying to get his signature on a permanent deal.

Steffen will be 27 this season.

If he's got anything about him, he'll be looking to move on and get a starting position somewhere after 2 seasons sitting on the bench.

That will likely dictate Bazunu's future.

The problem is Ederson's not likely to get replaced for the foreseeable future, and we'd need to get Bazunu experience in a top league and CL before he could even compete for the job.

The dream is a 2-3 year loan like Courtois had at Atletico Madrid, but finding a club playing at that level domestically and in the CL that needs a loanee goalkeeper is very unlikely.

Bazunu seems to be amazing...but Ederson is 28. Feels like no one has a chance at all breaking in any time soon. At least 5 years left for Ederson you'd guess.
