[Albion] Ryan to Manchester United rumours

Kalimantan Gull · Nov 2, 2018

The price will completely depend on whether he is there to be first choice or reserve. I would be surprised if they were to target him for first choice - he's great, is he that great? Maybe he is, he is certainly a good shot-stopper and thats really what the top clubs want, the occasional amazing save as they aren't under much pressure the rest of the time

If we keep developing like we are, at some point one of our best players will be taken by one of the big boys, and I'm close to being able to accept it and wish them the best. Not quite yet, but i'm close.

Their offer may depend on that, the price is up to us not them.

The days of us rolling over and having our tummies tickled are long gone.

But he's TINY.

All his mistakes were in his first few games. After that I don't think he's made one.

Potential clanger in the last minute against Watford at home last minute if I recall, but we got away with it. Makes far more world class saves than mistakes though.

Fake news 6 foot 2 don't they do their research 2 foot 6 would be closer. Surely too short for united!

Only [MENTION=30242]spence[/MENTION] can decide it he is too short. He is the ''height'' expert here on NSC just as [MENTION=451]BensGrandad[/MENTION] is ''left back'' expert

This - I genuinely can't recall one apart from very early on last season........................

.....of course, there's a MASSIVE rick coming on Saturday now, but at least it'll put Man U off the scent.

I think Tony has probably continued to put a 'not for sale at any price' message out on our key players and unless there's a colossal/stupid offer (always possible in January), and the player's head gets properly turned and expresses a deep wish to leave, we'll keep what we've got.

Didn't we have this nonsense with Liverpool ? Sounds like agent talk.

Anyway whatever happens he is a superb keeper. Destined for greater things i predict. Just needs working on that kicking. I knew we had a gem on our hands. Great scouting by Ben Robberts.

Giraffe · Nov 2, 2018

If we get a good price for him (£50m+) then yep that's fine. Walton will be ready soon and he is about seven inches bigger. And English.

Can't see it happening though. Too short for the top six - I read that on here when we signed him so must be true.

edna krabappel · Nov 2, 2018

Ludicrous rumour. Surely a club like United will be after a man who's a regular at a long established Premier League club, a man of true international pedigree?

Yeah. If we're say 2-0 down in the 88th minute I almost hope he lets a soft shot squirm through his fingers or drops a simple cross. That should be enough, it's those mistakes that stick in the mind.

Whisper it quietly but I don't think he excelled at Selhurst last season either.

Bozza · Nov 2, 2018

I wonder if he'll be a PFA Player of the Month nominee announced later today.

Jackthelad · Nov 2, 2018

It doesn't surprise me big clubs are sniffing about. Ryan is quality everything you want in a keeper, he should not be sold for anything under 50 million in today's market.

blue-shifted · Nov 2, 2018

Reasons this transfer won't happen ...

It's in the Sun
His kicking isn't of the standard Man U would want
They won't offer as much as he is worth to us
He wants to play. (he knows he might at Man U, but will here)

Got nothing to do with the height stuff, which stopped being funny long, long ago

Albion Dan · Nov 2, 2018

To be honest I'd jump at a decent price. Walton is very close to being able to make the step up and could be Englands future no 1.

RandyWanger · Nov 2, 2018

de Gea and Romero would both be higher up the order than Ryan.

The Sock of Poskett · Nov 2, 2018

Walton is quality and will very likely be our number two next season I would hope, but it's a massive ask to chuck him in come January even if we have the option of pulling him back from Wigan. Button may be an able occasional deputy at the moment but I'd be worried if he suddenly became number one in the event of Maty moving on.
However, I think the chances of that happening are pretty much zero, so no worries eh? :lolol:

This. Would be very sorry to see Maty go, but if it was next summer and £50m, I think Walton would be good enough and ready. We could be in a worse position on this one.
