Yeah I like crooks, but he is a liability at times. I mean what was it 15 yellow cards? That’s crazy. But after seeing izzy jones on that podcast where he says “the manager told me to kick the *** out of Tom Lawrence against derby” probably understand why he got that many yellows 😂. I think crooks links up well down the right side, but somebody abit more technical would be excellent with izzy and djiksteel

You mean someone like Payero?

Did Potter actually say that? Find it hard to believe but would happily be proved wrong 

Potter told press about Connolly last time before it was done

I mean, have we seen enough of him to tell us he could. Apart from a good game against a shocking Peterborough side. Didn’t look a cut above in the u23 game either

Could also be Florin Andone, not really wanted at Brighton.

I'd be surprised if it's Undav as he's just had a quality season in belgium and I think they wanted to give him a go this year according to my Brighton mates.

He'll never play in the Prem. He's 31 in October.

Only way he'd get in the Prem is for a newly-promoted team. He's not good enough and too old.

There's a reason he failed in England on multiple occasions and is sat in his prime playing in Scotland.

Top half of the league is Championship standard and bottom half is L1/L2.

Rangers did well in Europe, but didn't play anyone amazing.

None of the teams they beat/faced would make Top 6 in England.

 

I didn't realise he was that old to be honest, saying that I watched him play quite a few of the Rangers games in Europe and he looked more than good enough to play for a lower end Premier league team. 

They played against some fairly decent sides in the latter stages of the europa Cup or whatever you call it, so I think he's show he can play at a better standard. 

Like you say though at 31 maybe time has run out on his chances of playing at a higher level.

To be fair £40k over the season is "only" £2m.

If we are saying a £7-10m striker gains you 10-15 points, just as much as a solid keeper. Then it's more cost effective (compared to points) to go for the £2m option.

But we only have a certain amount of money that we can spend, spending big on a keeper restricts our ability to spend in other areas. 

If we build a good team of outfield players I don't think we need a Premier league standard keeper at this level. 

Its about maximising a limited pot of money on a balanced squad.
