[Albion] David Stockdale

[Luke93]

Fantastic keeper, and still reflectively young. 1M sounds cheap TBH!

 

[symyjym]

Considering Kuszczak's agent was reportedly in talks some Prem clubs, I haven't seen news of any club interested in him.

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

I think there may be an attitude issue with PIG.

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

How would the Sun newspaper know who we are going to bid for and how much considering all our dealings are kept very secret?

Maybe they've hacked TB's phone?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

I think the reason we let PIG go so easily is more to do with the constant touting for premiership clubs towards the end of his contract and his back and forth with Bruno.

there were clearly dressing room issues not to mention some other rumours

Which goalkeeper in the Championship conceded less goals than him last season?

He may have not as been as good as in his first season, but there were still games were he won his points nearly on his own. We'll do well to replace him with somebody better, and certainly the realistic names that have been banded about like Henderson aren't

With 9 men behind the ball and the way we set up it would be difficult to get many against us regardless of who was in goal.

Derby did alright plonking 4 past him when a make shift back 4 was in front of him.

From the Fulham forum:

Is Stockdale off to Brighton?

 

[Rod Marsh]

1m for a keeper of Stockdales quality and age would be a bargain. I'm more than happy for us to be spending money in that position. The spine of the side is vital to our success. With the players that have gone this summer I think spending money on a keeper, centre back, central midfielder and striker is minimum we should be doing.

Its like a looking into a bedwetting mirror, plus they also have a bloke called Grandad who makes outrageous posts

[Bladders]

You would presume contact has been made with his agent who would have indicated that he'd consider a move.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Because the last one wasn't as good?

Stockdale is indeed very highly rated, would be over the moon if we signed him.

 

[JBizzle]

It's not about being cocky or otherwise. I just don't think TK was good enough second half of last season. We can do better.

I agree. The moment rumours started being leaked about him negotiating with other clubs, his form dipped dramatically.

Stockdale is a quality 'keeper and one we could rely on for 7-8 years if all goes well.

This is one of the big questions at present: just how good is Walton? If he's as good as the buzz suggests, he's not going to hang around for three years for an opportunity.

I hope he gets some games this year in the CC for a start. He has big potential and I think he will go far. However he is a young lad and personally do not think he is ready right now. A few mistakes could set him back a number of years. I would even consider loaning him to a L1 club who will play him all year and see how he does there. If he performs well then he may well be ready the following season for the championship.

 

[Mannie]

Would be great if we could get him for that kind of money!

 

[7:18]

Yes please, always liked him...would be a bargain for £1m

 

[Biscuit]

What's the point of spending £1m on a keeper when we could have just kept hold of the last one?

Agree with this.

Perhaps better or down to wages.?

 

[BrianWade4]

Brilliant keeper. Close to England squad a while back

Dreamland !
