YGBjammy Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Good business. Remember as well he's only 26; relatively young for a GK in the grand scheme of things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I’m still not sold on him. The distribution remains a concern for me, and I’ve not seen enough to say he’s a top end championship keeper (I think he’s fine at this level but I’d be looking for more). Congratulations to him, but I hope that’s not our Gk position considered as resolved and would want some strong competition at the very least in the summer - whether that’s Haikin or someone else. 1 hour ago, Davefevs said: Excellent news. I’m with @Silvio Dantein terms of I’m interesting to see what else we might do in the GK position this summer. As Nige says, they’re always looking out for better. Wasn't Bajic our perspective No.1 ? He was talked of as our first choice with Max back up. The injury set him back, Max has stepped up a level and I thought Haikin was only signed to allow Bajic to get games. I got the feeling from all I read that Max & Bajic were 1 & 2 and Haikin was an after thought to fill a gap. It did sound like Bajic was highly rated.

But as the OP says 100% worth a new deal, getting better every game, starting to command the box, but needs to push on further to be a "top six" type goalkeeper for me. Christ! If Frankie Fielding had a similar deal he'd have been paying us! In all seriousness his deal is well deserved having shown considerable improvement with no reason not to improve further. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS3City Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 At the risk of being pedantic the article states he was 16 in 2016 but is 26 now. I know our defence has been poor at times over the years but worrying to age at such a rate! Come to think of it I remember our decline from the late 70's - early 80's was blamed for John Shaw's hair loss. Is there something going on?

The story seems to be that Max was leaving to be someone else's number 1 as he felt that was what he needed at his age. Bajic turned up with an injury that failed to heal before the transfer window closed, so we had to hold on to Max. Bentley's form dropped sufficiently to allow him to become our number 1 instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Very good news. Home grown academy product. Key position in the spine of the team. Locked down until he turns 28 - getting his early prime years. Still improving, and still able to improve. Nice guy. Presumably quite reasonable wages that fit our structure. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
