Murphy is the best keeper we've had since we were relegated from the PL apart from Westwood.

Best of a bad bunch?

No he doesn't. Not many keepers seem to dominate their box. I don't think the return of Murphy is the answer although I do think an experienced keeper alongside Burge would help him develop. I think burge still has a long way to go before I would count him as first choice keeper.

He is first choice keeper whether you like it or not.

True he is currently and true I'm not convinced as yet

I'd much rather we develop Burge and Charles-Cook. Both are clearly talented.

Based on what?

Both earned rave reviews during their spells at Nuneaton, i seem to remember. And I thought Burge showed promise when i saw him last year. You can't expect a goalkeeper to be the finished article at 22.

Westwood and Murphy played 170 league games between them at 22

Marshall was just as good.

Glad someone remembered Marshall. Very good keeper.

Yeah so they were given a chance to develop? Burge hasn't been able to get game time: was number 2 to Murphy for 2 years... And was only weened in this year... Give the guy a chance... I've seen enough in him to suggest he could develop into a good keeper.. Yes he made mistakes but I would bet Murphy and Westwood did too in their first 50 games...
