I'd heard of Guzan.Sorry.
We had much better players available back then. Mellberg, Solano, Angel, Barry. We have nobody anywhere near that class in the squad these days. Lambert needed to add some real quality to the squad, but he risked his dosh on foreign unknowns and lower division gambles. It doesn't look like working.

Saturday saw a team with Hughes and Sidwell take 3 points off us. Both heavily pilloried in the past. Neither of these players have the quality mentioned but you can still get them to perform well with the right approach. also,none of the above were mentioned at the time of Dolly as being World or International class and were generally viewed by others as good-but not great.
