    I wouldn't have one

    Stick a young lad on bench, if Steele gets injured, bring in a decent keeper on loan.

    Waste of wages, better spent topping up wages for an outfield player that would otherwise be out of our reach.

    Never in a million years

    Threw his toys out of the pram big style when Muller signed - wouldn't do the warm up with him.

    Hardly the ideal backup.

    Get a young lad in

    Then in a couple of years, he might be challenging for a starting 11 place, or get a young lad in on loan from somewhere.

    IMO we need an experienced GK e.g. Preece... Youngsters e.g. Mannone & Alcock lost us games in past

    Danny Alcock only played half a match and it was worst performance in a reds shirt I ever saw "rabbit in headlights"..... I think we were 3-0 up against QPR when Marlon Beresford went off injured and young Alcock came on and gifted 3goals.

    We all remember Vito Mannone.... he will no doubt turn out to be a decent player but, at a young age keepers are perhaps more prone to making donkey errors.
