I think I would go Heaton then  Steer with Reina and Nyland to fight for 3rd choice.

Heaton must be fit come July maybe he can save us.
Dont think this squad registration is an issue because it's a different situation with the restart.

Regardless of his eligibility, Heaton himself doesn't think he'll be fit enough to play this season.

Oh great more discouraging news..why did they bring this season back !

Anyway don't get me totally wrong . All can do a job as keeper just find Nyland especially but also now Reina have shown some poor errors and form and its frightfully concerning.

However if we keep more  clean sheets than not and now to rest of season and have that bit of luck then villa can survive by a few wins and draws .

Will look at the points thing again..
I'm sure it's just a few more wins and several draws that would do it historically.
Say we get more draws than wins. Just means it's a bit longer to when we can announce survival.

Up the villa !

Pepe seems to be up for today's game.

Appears to me he wouldn't mind another year or so in B6.

Please god no.

I’d have him here for another year. Apart from Heaton he’s the best keeper we’ve had for quite a number of years. Even at his age.

I think he was a bit rusty when he first arrived - seems to have settled now.

Same here plus brings a wealth of experience. Bear in mind we need to see how Heaton returns from his injury as he's no spring chicken either.

He’s just not mobile enough to back peddle-change direction. It’s an age thing, reminds me of Shilton in his later years. He looks good compared to our other options but that’s faint praise really. He’s certainly been important but very much a stop gap I expect.

Frank, you have powers.  Any ideas on this week's lottery numbers?
