Exactly.
I also think it brings into question our recruitment again. There is the issue of wasting the loan that could have been used for Jansson or AN other striker after the Romanian deal fell through and the management must have some doubts about our £5 million keeper. I can't see that a keeper of Krul's age, experience and ability would sign on permanently to be a reserve.

Perhaps they hare having 2nd thoughts about Ryan being ready for the challenge but the one I feel sorry for is Maenpaaa who has done nothing wrong.

If it's looking grim in January, we'll neither want, or be able to, get anyone good in on a permanent basis.

One imagines from The City game and Leicester other players must have been written off too

He played because,at that time he could not have played v Newcastle .If Maenpaa had got hurt last night,then only a rookie keeper as reserve on Sunday.

Oi! Don't let pesky FACTS get in the ways of a good old moan up!
Shall i post up the highlights of the Man City,Leicester and Madrid goals ? The KEY stats ? You won't ever convince me that Ryan isn't a poor signing.
The sooner he is dropped or sold the better. A 5 million flop, but it happens.

Yes, I've seen them. His first THREE games for us. Whoop-de-****ing-do
Did you also happen to see David De Gea when he first signed for Man Utd? He was shite as well (but for a few games more), with a few idiots calling for him to be dropped and shipped out. Look how that has turned out.
EVERY new 'keeper needs game time playing behind his new defence to setting in.

You are right up yourself ain't you
If it's any consolation SIMMO, I played tennis in Gildredge Park this afternoon, 6-1, 1-6, 6-4, went to the public bog for a cheeky J Carroll Naish afterwards and someone had somehow managed to curl out a man-sized chocolate log into the frickin urinal! An act of contortion I couldn't begin to imagine, let alone factoring in someone potentially walking in while the act was taking place. Weird stuff.
Maybe i should call you an idiot because you cannot see a bad keeper/player and your judgement is poor ? I won't because you entitled to your opinion. I've seen enough of Ryan to already form an opinion and know he isn't good enough.
People like you seem to think you can't judge a player on a handful of games. What about players who have just one game to impress a scout or coach/manager ? Surely that isn't fair ?

Ryan has done better since he had the extra competition. He could have just had more time to settle in or it be down to luck, but if we are determined to have 3 good keepers then I'll be positive and assume the first point has at least had some effect.
Whoever starts we have more PL keepers than strikers currently.

And that therein lies your problem. You have made your judgement on his first three games in front of a band new defence. The Club on the other hand, would've been scouting and watching him play for a darn sight longer. Look at Pascal Gross, for example. The club have been watching him for at least a year and they would have been doing the same for Maty Ryan (albeit maybe half a year).
And for the record, I never called YOU and idiot. Just the United fans that were proved wrong with De Gea. You are entitled to your opinion, just as I am allowed to argue against it. Just trying to point out that with such a crucial position as a goalkeeper, you cannot expect them to hit the ground running like an outfield player.

Do any prem league teams have only 2 keepers in their 25 ?
