He would ruin david De Gea in one week


It's no surprise that since leaving us the likes of Almunia, Szczesny and Fabianski all seemed to show signs of improvement.

Don't understand why we didn't let Cech goalkeeper coach join us


fabs is the worst one because he took tony roberts with him to Swansea. That c*** was here all along yet we kept this old f**k in charge of goalkeeping duties

wenger going wouldnt be big just because his outdated self would be leaving, it would mean the end for all of our rubbish coaches

Arsenal will rival Atletico Madrid and Napoli for Bayer Leverkusen's German international keeper Bernd Leno, 26, who is available for a fee of around £17.5m. (Bild via Sun)


Is he German number 3?

Doesn't matter.

If there is a German keeper available you buy them. No questions asked.

They've got at least four goalkeepers better than any English Keeper

Timo Horn would probably be England No.1 and I think he's third or fourth choice for Germany

i'd take him to replace Ospina and maybe demote Cech, we could do with a good up and coming keeper tho, like Lafont, how is that young portugese keeper Virginia in real life? hes got high stats on FM

This is an exiting buy for me if it happens as I play GK. I knew we were never in for an Oblak or Donnarumma given our resources so this really hits the sweet spot of high potential up and comer at the right price.

I've watched a bit of him and I think he his exceptional trait is his footwork. He has some of the most active feet I've seen on a GK in awhile. He's doing what I call a stutter hop where he's making small positioning changes while an attacker advances on him. This allows him to react quickly once he has read the shot timing and/or direction and improves his position while doing so. If he reads the shot he takes a large hop while the shooter is drawing their foot back. This allows him to get into a strong leaping position for his dives. Because of his active feet he also is able to make a lot of saves with his feet that would otherwise slip by.

Lukic used to do a lot of work with his legs and saved quite a lot with his legs, including at least one penalty that I remember

And of course he had that trademark stutter when he took a goal kick
