I like how we are starting to do our business early We're getting the low priority tasks done early (gap fillers). This gives us the summer to focus on what's really important, the first team! I reckon that's right, mate. The focus is going to be solely aimed at quality over quantity now I believe.

Apparently he's a good player.... so a Danish friend of mine says.
So not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

He'll be no.2 to Jack once Begovic goes, with whichever of Bachmann/Eve is not out on loan at any given time as no.3.

The scenarios must be:
1. Begovic stays and Butland goes out on loan 2. Begovic is sold, and Butland is the new No. 1
Both scenarios call for a new back-up keeper for the bench, and I'm afraid I don't trust Jakob Haugaard for that role. To me, he looks like a player that needs to go out on loan and play a lot of football. Could we be looking at one more keeper (for the bench)?

He's only had 30-odd games in a poor league and seems very raw. Like Bachmann, he's not going to get the development opportunities he needs if he's tied to the bench and not out getting games at a lower level. I can't imagine Hughes being happy to have a situation where someone as green as him is next in line should Butland get a bad injury. He may have great potential - but does he have the profile to be the primary back-up keeper for a Premier League team? I'd still be surprised.

If Begovic goes, there still seems to be a hole in the squad for a proper senior back-up goalkeeper who'd provide real cover and competition for Butland

If Bego goes we should have an experienced keeper in the first 3 in my opinion.

Maybe he will go out on loan for up to a season, just as Jack did and we will sign a more experienced player to be our new no 2 Well done Thomas (Sorensen) for helping make this happen

Doesn't necessarily mean begovic is going . If begovic stays butland will be loaned out to a champ/Prem team for experience like last season. Meaning we could of just signed him to replace soro and sit on the bench .

I can't see him challenging either Asmir (if he stays) or Jack for the No 1 shirt.
Looks like a straight replacement for Tommy.

Meaning we could of just signed him to replace soro and sit on the bench . can't see us holding onto Jack much longer if we intend to send him out on loan again. he turned clubs down to come to us because he wouldn't get any gametime with them, he's going to get properly pissed off if we just keep shipping him out to Championship sides. he's the U21 keeper and captain and 1 of the most highly rated young keepers in the country...us keeping him and loaning him to Championship sides over and over again is harming his career far more than helping it!

He'll be no.2 to Jack once Begovic goes, with whichever of Bachmann/Eve is not out on loan at any given time as no.3. If that's the case isn't that an absolutely massive gamble? We would have gone from having a World class #1 who had a very good back with further back up from an experienced pro. To having a very good young goalkeeper who is still learning with a bloke who couldn't get a regular spot in a Danish league side as back up with two massively unexperienced goalies as back up. It's gone from a position of strength to one of massive weakness if we do that. It was always going to be weakened but if he's second choice then it's overly weakened. Hopefully he'll be third choice.

Have you ever seen this youth play? No but I have Bachmann and Eve, one is a flapper, one is very raw. We need better than them for third choice. A bloke who can barely get in a third rate league's side doesn't fill me with confidence for second choice when we have a green first choice and two others that are nowhere near the required standard.

So then swapping a world class goalie and an experienced back up with a bloke who can't get in a Danish league side starting XI and a bloke that couldn't get back in the Wrexham starting XI last season is ok then? Ok.
