Anybody know if Tony Coton is still with the club?

Parkes. No he's gone

Coton. Head of Goalkeeping Recruitment.  Ex Blues and Man City.

Oh sorry ok. I forgot he existed.

He's a goalkeeping scout. Not sure if he's still with us though.

Apparently he was superb vs Paraguay tonight, so maybe this gets more MLS clubs calling.

Alternatively, maybe a few more competent defenders might do him the world of good. There's undoubtedly still a good keeper in there, but probably won't happen with us.

He made some great saves tonight and looked very secure (looked like the old Brad). Let's hope he can rediscover his confidence as he looked very good.

On another note Carlos Sanchez was captaining Colombia tonight (in the first half, until James Rodriquez came on at half time). He didn't look particularly good and Colombia lost 3-2 to Costa Rica and missed out on top place in their group.

And that's another thing re Sanchez I'd rather we had players who don't come back late for pre season due to over blown tournaments like this.

So basically we wouldn't want to sign anybody good enough to play international football?

African Nations are next year. We'd best get rid of Gueye and Ayew too then mate.

Really? I didn't know that. Hopefully, RDM is 'on it' as the kids say!

I wouldn't want to make the same massive mistake Sherwood did last season and go into a new season hoping that Brad would capture some form from over two years ago.

He was very good for two seasons but that seems like such a long time ago. I'd let him go now in all honesty. Probably best for him and us. A new start as they say.

Maybe - there is still talk that Benin might be disqualified. And there's no guarantee that they'll get through the group.

So we might still have his unique set of skills for that month.

Yes, and didn't our Benin residing poster say he was poor for the national side?  May not get in the squad.  Especially if Jamie Vardy has a grannie who is Beninois

I'm coming to the conclusion that the plethora of goals Rudy bagged alongside Rhodes the season before last was a one off.
