Yorkie Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Would be very sad to see Pope go. He's been mostly tremendous when he's played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Cannot see Ramsdale and Pope both at the club, surely neither would want to be backup...both not cheap on wages either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 If we are after a new number 1 (personally I don't think we do, and would be more then happy for Pope to stay as such next season), but it makes sense for Pope to move on as he'd be way to good to be a number 2.

Weezertron Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I know people joke about Eddies ruthlessness, but it seems unlikely he'd boot out Pope when he's one of our most important players, as proven through his absence. I'd go as far as saying he is a player Eddie would be desperate to keep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I think I’d lose all my faith in the current setup if Pope departed before Dubravka mind. Would be utterly mental. Edited May 18 by Ronaldo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Yeah if he's going it'll be because he wants to start somewhere and knows we're looking to upgrade. Only been here a couple of years but he's been class, one of my favourite keepers I've seen for us. Be one of those that we remember in years to come as a big part of the transition period into a team that's regularly competing for trophies imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not afraid to tell you who my sources are. His first name rhymes with eve and his surname sounds a bit like Towie. Now you decide who the real bull shitter is!

Pablo123 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Be a bit gutted if this happened, especially if it's to get in Ramsdale. He's been excellent for the most part, and a snip for his price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you can call a one off, twice that’s got to play on his mind and effect his confidence on that side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 And he is pretty bad with the feet. I think it makes sense if we can get a really good and modern keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Ramsdale any better in that regard? The only advantage to him over Pope for me is that he is younger and less injury prone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sold on Ramsdale, but yeah, I think overall he is slightly better. Close, but the fact that he is younger and not back after another bad injury is of course an advantage.

Howay man, every PL keeper is significantly better with their feet than Pope. He plenty makes up for it in other areas, but he is, and always will be, incredibly limited with his passing. In his defence (sorta), I will say he rarely complicates anything when passing out, and therefore isn’t particularly prone to catastrophic errors, but he’s incredibly limited in what he can do.

relámpago blanco Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Ramsdale is not the answer but we would be maybe 10 points better off with Pope in goal all season. We've conceded so many that make our backline look shit when Dubs hasn't come out fast and made himself big. Half of those type of goals pope saves.

gbandit Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 It’s not just the passing, his ability to control a ball under pressure is worse than any goalie in the league. I love him and think he’s been amazing for us, our best keeper since Given in my opinion but there’s no sugarcoating his footballing ability Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
