Guest neesy111 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Elliott is another who some have ridiculously written off after a few games. As a goalkeeper you have it or you don't. This lad doesn't. Krul, Harper, Given, Hislop, Pav all looked the business as soon as they were in the 1st team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way Woodman talks about Robbie makes me have a lot of respect for the kid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Any news on the fee? Is it the previously reported 2 million or did we manage to extract some more out of them? Personally I would have been happy if he had stayed and fought for a first team place just so we are better prepared for the eventuality of a bid for Krul we can't refuse, but if he wants to be first choice then fair play and I wish him all the best.

Dave Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 By all accounts it's the £2m which was agreed as part of the loan deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Won't do his career or any possible England hopes any good still £2m for someone who never made an appearance for us (I think) good business Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Won't do his career any good? He'll be playing every week in front of big crowds, playing in the Champions League and winning games. Yes it's a crappy league that's now even less credible but still, I think he'll be happy tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 £2 million quid? That's awesome for a goalkeeper who hasn't made a single senior appearance for us. Good luck to him on a hopefully happy career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JS Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 He'll probably win a load of stuff with them also, fair play to the lad for going out there and becoming a regular Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's a crappy league that's now even less credible but still, I think he'll be happy tbh. It's the equivalent of when a top player goes to somewhere like Russia IMO. Sure, he'll play a handful of European games (more than likely get tonked more often than not now), but for 9 months a year it's not going to be great competition. I'd rather join a lower Premier League or even upper Championship club these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's a crappy league that's now even less credible but still, I think he'll be happy tbh. Forster could end up being one of those players who don't fulfill their full potential. Sure, he'll be able to test himself, against the top strikers, in the CL but then again, he's going to playing relatively weak opposition, week in, week out. That's not that great like. Any potential England prospects could have very well gone now (as harsh as it sounds). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATB Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Maybe he realises he'll never play for England with Hart about so is just happy to have the easy life. Almost start to think this. This move seems to lack any ambitions whatsoever. Especial when he already has won everything you basically can win there... disappointed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishmael Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Strange choice. He's going to take-up loads of leg room on the bench, on flights and the team bus etc. You'd think they'd pick a compact 3rd choice on practicality grounds and not some massive tower-block of a man.
