I don't get the hero or zero thing. Very good players can have their weaknesses and average players can have their good points. The real world isn't inky black and brilliant white.
Butland is a brilliant shot stopper - probably the best in the country, However his distribution is poor - and will probably hold him back from being considered as one of the greats. It's perfectly possible to believe both of these things are true and still respect Butland as one of the best players we've ever had on our books.
If he goes in the summer - and I think he will - I wish him well. But to be honest I don't think it would be a disaster - we won't get anyone nearly as good but we can easily get ourselves an adequate replacement. I'm far more concerned about getting adequate replacements for Allen and Etebo should they both go,

Do you know how much he charges for 2 full 60ft trailers to the south of France?

Not a big fan of all this current trend of keepers being able to fanny about with the ball at their feet. Can go horribly wrong. Handling is far more important. Lets give the criticism of Jack a rest for chrissake!!. Can you let Guardiola and Klopp know they've got it wrong? While your at it tell them that defenders should just defend, none of this ball playing or bombing on nonsense.
