St1pe Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I’ve unturned a little on his signing after remembering how bleak it was when Dubravka got injured last season. We can’t rely on Darlow or worse at this level anymore. I don’t think he’s an upgrade on Dubravka but healthy competition for £10m is good business.

Last season Pope saved 73.6% of the shots he faced placing him 5th best in the league last season. Dubravka saved 67.9% of the shots he faced placing him in 14th. As a shot stoppers there's no question Pope is a (probably significant) upgrade on Dubravka. Also, it's not like Dubravka is some wizard when it comes to playing it out the back. Obviously you can dig even deeper on those stats and look at the quality of shots faced, but I don't think you'd see a significant difference considering Pope played for a horrific Burnley side last season.

I see Dubravka going out on loan late in the window. I don’t think he’s going to be happy with being number 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoU Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Decent signing I think. A slight upgrade on Dubs at a good price. No matter who is first choice it will give us much better depth and competition in the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already done our one in one out with Woodman going Preston but I'd expect to see Darlow go by end of July yeah.

Happinesstan Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 The thing that excites me about this signing, I was on the fence previously, is that stat relating to actually sweeping. Looks like a huge improvement on Dubs, in that respect, which will help the defence play higher up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way Dubravka leaves is if we get decent money or he forces a move. We’ll get rid of Darlow probably for 3-5m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
