Luke Steele Barnsley Keeper

HalifaxSeagull · Apr 28, 2014

Y Barnsley supporting mates thinks he's far to good for league 1 and without him they'd have been relegated ages ago...

6'2", 29yrs old, ex Man Utd & England U18, 19 & 20.

Not sure what he'd cost or wages but can't imagine that much.

Worth a punt if PIG goes?

Potentially yes. I remember he used to be pretty good, and touted as a future England number one (then again I think every semi decent young British keeper has at some time).

He got sent to United from Peterborough on loan. So must have shown some potential at some point. But then again, do you want a keeper from a team thats just been relegated from your league?

Tom Heaton relegated with Bristol City last year, promoted with Burnley this.

I think Gilks at Blackpool is a great keeper.

I thought him to be about 4ft 7. Which is not a plus.

Would rather Stech. Probably just as good but 9 years younger so has time to improve. Steele is probably as good as he's going to get

Luke Steele is exactly who I would want if PIG goes, Good Championship keeper, will be on less wages than PIG and the right side of 30 too.

MB you must be the same height as Brez. Gilks is 6ft 1

I am actually the shortest descendent in the Wadlow family. 7ft 4.

He looked a bit stocky then, Gilksy. I thought him alright last week, but with more of a spring in his step i reckon he could've made it to the Dalester's slow floater.

If we are looking for a new keeper next season then the Sydney FC keeper for me http://youtu.be/1W0LA7K0pEQ
He's commanding in his box has great distribution from his throw outs and is in my opinion too good for the A League and on top of this wouldn't cost a great deal.

Didnt think much of him against us and rumours say that Millwall are interested, if that is correct I would go for Forde IMO much better.

Definitely got room to improve but at the age of 20/21 he has plenty of time to do so. He'd be well within our budget and put our back 4 in front of him and I'm sure he'd be a good investment.

Stech is 24 years old so probably near to his best now and has spent most of his career on loan at lowly clubs.

My mistake re: his age. Thought he was younger than that.

I must be bored, I'm looking at youtube compilations of Australian league goalkeepers. Still, he could be free (2 year deal in 2012)

If we want to sign Barnsley players, Mellis might be worth a go.

Luke Steele Barnsley Keeper is he related to Eric Steele

SweatyMexican · Apr 28, 2014

I'm sure that Burke has a number of keepers up his sleeve if PIG decides he wants to go. Steele could be one of them. I don't know what his wages are but I don't think it'll be that steep playing for Barnsley.
