He has to be absolutely shite.... or absolutely mint, in between doesn't exist. The reality is that he is a very good PL goalkeeper, a significant upgrade on Dubravka, a recent England International and someone who we could improve. If we are being quoted less than 20m, it's hardly any wonder we are interested in him. That's not to say he hasn't had his shakey moments but fuck me....

The Prophet Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 Baldward's hit rate isn't great, but a deal would be more palatable at £15 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 (edited) 15m would be a bargain, largely because we could sell him for most of that in a couple of years time if it didn't work. Something smells off about this rumour mind, it's got guesswork written all over it. Edited May 17, 2024 by STM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 Said it last summer and I still think Edwards is used as their smokescreen. Drip feed him some "info" while actually going after someone completely different. Isn't this what happend with the Tonali deal, he said we were definitely going after someone else iirc.

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 Pretty happy about this potential signing actually. They must have concerns about Pope’s shoulder going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 It might not be factual, but it feels like goalkeepers don't peak until they are 30, Ramsdale is 26. Also, worth baring in mind that Ramsdale and Pope know each other and are probably mates, they certainly have connections, even outside the England setup. Even though the competition might be tough, I'd wager that they would enjoy working with each other in training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 Arsenal only paid £23 million for him, and so it's possible that they are taking less with him not starting anymore there, and with him wanting out. Article says he will come in to compete with Pope, with the view that he has room to continue to improve. £15 million would be ridiculous value and nearer to half of what is being quoted for the Georgian, who people wanted because he'd be cheaper! Once again it's looking like another sharp move in the market. We are possibly going to end up with both Pope and Ramsdale for less than £30 million having been spent on the pair.

Aiston Posted May 17, 2024 Share Posted May 17, 2024 (edited) Pissing money away signing Ramsdale would be nuts if we are so restricted anyway. edit: Just seeing £15m...which would be fair enough. Edited May 17, 2024 by Aiston Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from what KaKa says, I'm sure I've seen people on here, not unreasonably, suggest we could have 10 more points under our belts if Pope hadn't been injured. Ergo vying for a CL spot again. What level do we want to be at? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
