There has been quite a bit of talk on here about Al-Habsi.. Whether he is good enough etc and whether we need a back up GK to push him..
Would anybody take Craig Gordon?? .. Not the worst Keeper from what I remember.. Sure he had quite a big price tag at one point…
Anyway.. He is a free agent at the moment.. May be worth a punt depending on wages..
What are your views? B)

Wouldn’t go anywhere near him.
As injury prone at Kirkland and wouldn’t play for peanuts.
Incidentally who is questioning Al Habsi’s ability? He’s a very good Premier League keeper, and a couple of mistakes doesn’t suddently mean he’s become a bad one.

Not myself but there have been a few discussions questioning his ability.. He isn’t the best Keeper but he will do for now B)

Totally agree SW, Gordon had a bad time at Sunderland and Ali is by far a better keeper in my books

I wasn’t implying he should be brought in to replace Ali.. I was thinking as back up considering he is a Free Agent.
I also didn’t say that we SHOULD even get him.. Was only asking peoples thoughts, wouldn’t even have thought about the guy if I hadn’t seen he was a Free Agent B)

You did ask for peoples views.
The guy did have big prospects but seems to be made of weaker material than Kirky. It is a position that needs strengthening, but i think we might be ok with young Nicholls as cover?You did ask for peoples views.

Personally I don’t think it’s an area that needs strengthening. We’d struggle to get in a 2nd choice keep anywhere near as good as Al Habsi, and Nicholls has been getting rave reviews whenever he’s going out on loan.

Haha you 2 are at it all the way through this thread too!! ‘Ohhh I agree with you friendddd’ ;)
And Yes Jimmy I did ask for peoples views.. And to be honest as a back up I don’t see why we shouldn’t have a go.. if wages are reasonable.

Precisely.
Ask yourself the question whether one (GK) wouldn’t be prone to the odd mistake, playing behind our ever-changing ‘frequently error-prone’ back-three every week
no wonder he’s a bit twitchy.
look at ‘world’s best’ (NOT) Joe Hart. Supported last year by the best defence in the league (Kompany etc.) Manager changes formation this, defence starts to leak, the once cock-sure JH not looking quite so smug now (club AND country).
Just for discussion, if you were looking for a number 2…. how about
wild card, Matt Duke (Bradford City).(1) Cheap and (2) incentivised to come to PL club and compete for 1st team spot.36 in June, possibly a touch too old on reflection ….

Again ‘James’, is stating that you agree with someone’s views really a problem?

And wouldn’t go for Craig whatshisname either (as per Standish)

I refer you to the ‘Draw’ thread..
I didn’t say it was a problem.. Just a bit strange..
As I said on aforementioned thread, off here now for the weekend so see you all on Monday with 3 points!! B)

Yes, I agree with that JPC01. (Look James C. I’m agreeing with someone else)I think Matt Duke would be a very good 2nd goalkeeper. In my opinion not quite ready to hang up his boots, but not so young that he’d be itching to play every week. Good shout that – but I’ll think we’ll stick with Nicholls because by all accounts he’s becoming a very good goalkeeper.
