I'm another who would happily let Guzan and Bunn both leave.  I don't think a championship club can justify having 3 first team keepers.

valid point


It is highly debatable whether Guzan or Bunn should be called first team keepers.

Another vital part of the new spine. To replace the spineless spine of last season.

The fact he spent two years at Man U must be a good thing; he should be aware of the culture and speak the language.

I like the fact that his name sounds as though it could be the Italian for goalie. Hoping we sign Strikerissimo next.

£4m for a championship club to splash out on a goalie is a big deal isn't it?

Didn't realise but he's ex-Man U.

So was Bosnich, look how that turned out.

Steer clear of Immobile on that basis Chris.

He played for the Italian equivalent of us last season, Verona were rock bottom for most of the season although they did rally towards the end.

Can he bring Luca Toni with him?

Ah, The Two Gentleman of Verona.

Bunn would be fine as number two choice.  I think it will be between him and Steer though and one of them will have to go.

totally disagree about bunn the bloke is gash and should be nowhere near our club

have a look at his previous clubs and stats and that tells you all you need to know

the acceptance of shit has got to stop
