Main problem is rushing out, not pushing shots away from the danger area and maybe handling crosses. Remember a few times he dropped the ball in games but some think it's resulted in any goals Don’t worry we have top goalkeeping coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, as good as Maenpaa is, he can't be relied on to stay fit. If he could then Bentley wouldn't be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number one for a season and then retires for us to then go back to Bentley who hasn’t played in a while, or sign another keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming Bentley returns to form I could see bids for him. I think this summer / pre-season 20/21 is gonna be the weirdest ever. It just covid, but Brexit positioning too.

Players will need work permits if they are outside the UK. Expect players under contract will be fine until they need to renew / extend. Any signing from outside of UK will need to follow work permit rules that non-EU players currently have to follow. Assumes “no deal”, so from Jan 2021, although think of those US MLS players we can get via the deal with Trump!!! Has anyone heard any football mentioned in a “deal”, because I haven’t!

wendyredredrobin Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Nikki Maenpaa would be my choice to start as things stand too. I know he was a free, but he gives me an air of confidence that Dan Bentley doesn't. Experience counts in this position. That said, DB is probably a better shot stopper but NMs all round game is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you recall an interview / PR piece with Steven Barclay, he was saying that the advantage of Brexit was PL clubs being able to get Brazilians and Argentinians rather than Europeans....but it was bollox / spin, had no truth whatsoever....South American work permit rules weren’t changing, Of course top players will meet the WP requirements, but as the article expresses, many current players don’t. There’s a pretty common sense argument that says would someone like Nagy wouldn’t get one post-Brexit, with Hungary’s coefficient etc. Same with Massengo but in terms of international appearances or lack of. But we will have to wait and see. https://latitudelaw.com/news/the-fas-policy-on-non-eu-football-players-and-possible-implications-following-brexit/ A better doc!

An ‘ elite ‘ sportsman would normally represent his country at senior level . If he is just a ‘ good ‘ sportsman he may no longer be available for British clubs to sign .

The only good thing about that I suppose is non of our rivals would be able to sign players like that either, don't be surprised though if there were ways round it there nearly always seems to be.
