Marc-Andre ter Stegen

[stan bowles]

So we're in for Ter Stegen, Rulli and Claudio Bravo ? Looks like Pep is determined to make a change if Joe can't step up to the mark.

 

[BlueDejong]

What !?

 

[MeatHunterrr]

What !?

Superdeporte are good for Valencia news.. interesting.

lol we've been linked with about 6 different keepers so far, all of which we've been told is "nearly completed". No doubt tomorrow we'll be told Rulli is close to joining.

Don't want to add to your woes mate but just heard we are in for this fella to replace Richard Wright.

And none of them are better than Hart.

I would rate Bravo and Navas better than Hart for sure. I havn't seen much of the others and I doubt anyone has.

 

[GeorgeHeslop'sTackle.]

txixi will go in and insist we pay 50m or its off.

Bloody funny that Bill :-)
.....If only it wasn't so true :-(

Handanovic has been around for a while and is solid. The young AC keeper is a good prospect.

I watched a few youtube vids of Rulli to see what he was like...surprisingly his distribution was very poor. Aimless hoofs and panicked passing.

this.

joe needs work on his footwork though.

Undoubtedly needs improvement in that area, i wish he'd throw it more his throwing accuracy is pretty damn good. I just hope we don't go down the route of buying an inferior keeper on the basis of him being better in possession, If the players infront of him do as Pep asks he'll have plenty of options aandd won't have to aim for a pinpoint 60 yard ball to the head of a 5ft midget with no margin for error.

I think this a lot. Completely baffles me, his throwing is pretty good and it allows him to distribute the ball quickly but he does it so rarely. Very frustrating.

he may have been under orders.

That's Pellers tactics for you. Punching too.
Prior to Pellers Joe used to throw the ball out a lot and catch it if he could.
Edit: Pellers not Pep - how easily and quickly one drops into thinking Pep is City's manager :-)

 

[Daz_Blue]

Fox sports here are saying City could be selling Hart to Everton for 35m ........ and buying Stegen and Rulli .... sad if remotely true but cannot see it myself

Pep has saidjoe is staying as no 1 and he is looking foward to working with him

 

[RandomJ]

Signing Bravo would be pointless given his age. I have no problem us signing a younger keeper, giving Joe a year to see if he can adapt and if not to then replace him with said keeper. But signing a keeper who is 4 years older than Joe is just short sighted as fuck.
