over £10 M for a keeper is always a good price and we may even get a good replacement for half or a quarter of that value. However the Spurs match showed us the difference in having a good keeper (e.g Friedel) and great keepers (Lloris, Krul). It's these small details that add up at the end of the season and determine whether a team makes it to the Cl or not and is relegated or stays up.

They were interviewing an ex Pro the other week (can't for the life of me remember his name) and he was saying having a top class Keeper can be worth an extra 12-15 points over the course of a season. Personally I think goalkeepers are undervalued in the transfer market. If the Mackems had westwood in goal last season instead of Mignolet they would be playing in the Championship now.

Especially not in the Mirror right now what with Trinity Mirror = NCJ. Perhaps a wee tad bitter in their slant of all things NUFC at present ?

Kind of helps SD News out a bit if The Mag just reprint every story they post. That said, they're basically right.

 

What, that they're basically right in their conclusion that 'Mike Ashley blatantly uses his own sports news company to push the sale of his players'?

 

You actually agree with that?

If he influences SD News in the way he does NUFC, I would say it's a fair conclusion. This is the guy who, whilst racking up a billion big ones and running one of the 100 biggest organisations in the UK, still finds the time to be offended by the local press mentioning a nothing demo.
