They got away with it. Steele did OK, but that's it. Nothing more, nothing less.

We got away with it for about a third of the season. Twenty three of our matches didn't have Steele in goal.

Except that we were always going to have to let one of them go, probably for a lower price than we would like due to no PL experience (and clubs outside the PL mostly not having a pot to piss in). Now it looks like we'll have to lose them both, having had to bring in Verbruggen to replace...

Good luck to him. Hope he finds a good deal and has a successful career. Just don't see that as being with the Albion.

I think if Steele, Verbruggen and McGill were all injured (and Big Bob gone) it would be Rushworth who would get the recall before Scherpen. Rushworth is a top keeper in the making, out to gain experience - Scherpen's loan is more of a shop-window loan.

Only in January! I think Scherpen is probably a gonna as far as an Albion career is concerned.

Duplicate post.

Rushworth is more than a year older than Verbruggen! Edit: Beaten to it!

More a case of being a year too soon for Rushworth and Beadle, rather than 'not impressive enough'.

Not surprising. So would most of us be, I expect.

Not altogether correct - we simply don't know how good or otherwise McGill is. He hasn't (I don't think) played a single minute for the first team, and has never had a signficant loan. I don't know when he signed up to, but a decision about him needs to be made soon, I would think. Sell him now...

Not a top six team maybe, but he'll still be a damn good keeper for any club outside that elite group - so long as they want a GK, not a deep lying CM/sweeper. I suspect it will be abroad though.

....and I suspect loads more of us only ever see him (and only ever heard of him!) when somebody postst his tweets on NSC!

Tough luck if they're needed in November or March then - can only recall them in January!

Wonder what we'll do for a third GK now. Will we just take a risk and allow the U21 GK to step up if needed? - McGill I'm sure needs a decent loan - apart from one game for Crawley he's only ever had a couple of short low level non-league loans. Rushworth is probably good enough too - but his...

The bare bones suggest that his market value has actually dropped while he's been on loan!
