I would think that they wanted to sign him but were unable to complete the deal by the deadline closing so we took him on loan knowing we would complete the deal soon after.
IMHO Ryan has improved each game but I still do not have the confidence in him that he wont make a b...s.up. Krul is an acknowledge competent keeper so CH has a selection problem, lets hope he calls it right.
Brother went to the cup game and reckoned that Krul was a vast improvement and should play Sunday but again it is 1 mans opinion and not the one that matters.
That surprises me about Peter Bonetti because when we played together in Victoria Park as teenagers he was as tall as me perhaps he didnt grow much after that but was very agile hence the nickname The Cat.
Apparently he was very good last night. I am surprised Newcastle didnt say they would do the deal next Monday, so obviously Benitez doesnt see him as as threat to stop them scoring on Sunday.
