Optimistic Nut Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Would send the completely wrong message to Krul, after playing half of our games last year and winning an international call-up, for us to farm him out next season. Would fuck him off big time. Forster may turn out to be a top-class keeper, but Krul's got the shirt imo, he should keep it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 What difference does it make? Neither are going to be willing to play second fiddle this season or going forward. I'm not too sure any club could balance two similar standard keepers with their potential. One will have to go, it's natural. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Exactly. By all accounts both are worthy of starting berths. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Yeah, but surely they can't expect it just to be handed to them? If Forster is confident of his ability, why not stay for a season and try to get Krul out of the team? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Agreed. And just feel that since Krul has the shirt, he keeps it. Unlucky for Forster but I'm sure he'll do well for himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Forster is confident of his ability, why not stay for a season and try to get Krul out of the team? Why bother? He'll already feel he is proven enough to start elsewhere, why risk not getting a game all season when he could just go now? It's not like he's even played for and got an affinity for us yet. I bet he'd accept the chance to go back to Celtic tomorrow tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew is making some bold but right decisions this summer, fair play as Hughton wouldn't have done the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know were not used to having a board and manager on the same wavelength but the hysteria and paranoia is getting out of control. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Pardew imo would have wanted to keep Nolan, but when you see the offer Nolan's been given, you can see why they got shot when they did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have wanted to keep him for the same reasons we all wanted to keep him, but when told if you sell him you can go get the likes of Matuidi instead of Gardner I'm sure he wasn't too fussed about it all.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Any football manager sometimes has to bow to what the board say about financial management. It's not 1970 any more, we know managers aren't in control of everything at a club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
