Pressman 1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Should be far to good at this level,excellent signing that won’t come cheap can see wildsmith on his way now as Dawson has the longer contract probably loan to league 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dire that Burnley paid £3m for him and a current international goalkeeper, Hmm I think you don't know what you're talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still honestly would not rule us getting Westwood back very late on as a number 1 keeper. We have 3 keepers with similar profile and quality in the squad, I am not convinced any are a number 1 goalie. Can see fair bit of chop and change in goalie position again . Pressure will be on back there again if we are lacking goals up front . Why would we want to bring back old biscuit knees, glass back, powdered shoulder, brittle ankles. Would rather bring back Kevin Pressman as number 1 than that liability. BPF will be this seasons number 1 or why bring him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debram Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Don't really know much of him, got to be an improvement on what we have/had, 2 not good enough and 1 good enough but injury prone, good luck lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakefieldinleed1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Leeds fan in peace. I never rated him, but for some reason, when a youth player comes through at Leeds, we can get a premium for them, did same with Jack clarke. likeable lad but he wasn’t nicknamed rubber wrist for nothing, had a real problem, I think on his right side, couldn’t keep anything out. But I think there a bigger picture here Whilst I think he’s not very good, on paper it’s an ambitious signing and gives out the right signals, which I think is massive for you at this time. Plus he’s better than them two you’ve got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played very little first team football, so I hope the scouts have done their job here as bringing in someone like this will destroy what confidence the existing keepers have. We can only judge him on what we see, so good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a top half PL team having previously watched their team cruise to promotion. We are a L1 team and been dismal for a number of years and have a history of worshipping distinctly average players. I would say a Leeds fan has far more basis to judge a good player than a SWFC fan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sefton owl Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Don’t know anything about the lad but only reading good things on here. Would he have been a natural replacement for westwood or is this a ‘needs must’ sort of situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they weren't better than us at the time in fact it took them years to overtake us after they slagged us off for taking Lees from them. Do we have to stop singing about the boxing day massacre because United are above us now? Shall we stop mocking other teams incase they overtake us in future. Are you a Leeds fan in disguise?

Is everything is football only allowed with a retrospective? Aren't we allowed to mock the blades about the mind the game season or the boxing day massacre? Because they're now a championship team and we're in League one. Does our cup victory over man utd in 91 mean nothing because of what has happened since?
