He wasn’t a free transfer. Sheff Utd paid £2.3 million for him.

So he was. My mistake

Don't think he'd wanna be second choice to Dovin imo. But I have always rated him. Think we'll get a loan in until Dovin is back.

We need a good 1st choice - for probably over half a season - if he displaces Dovin for the whole season - so be it.
Football moves on quickly. There is little to no sentiment.
If we want to improve, if we have aspiration, we will sign a keeper that will likely be/need to be 1st choice for the season.
Loan or permanent - doesn't matter.
If we can sign a keeper better than Dovin - great.
If not, I'd be concerned.

Nobody currently at the club is the answer.

He's a son of a Gunn.

Don't hold me too it as it's of course early days but we may well see Dovin earlier than planned, maybe October

His fitness, age, and the fact that as a keeper you don't have the constant repetitive motion and hits to the knee an outfield player does, could potentially mean he's back quicker than usual

He is currently 'walking' if it can be called that with aid of crutches, but he shouldn't be as long as first feared

Heres hoping

Gunn played pretty well against us, but it looks like he had an ordinary season away from those games. Not a fan of bringing in players based on them playing well against us, as we've been bitten by such signings in the past as mentioned earlier in the case of Clayton Ince.

 

[SBT]

Decent keeper but I think he will want to go somewhere to be first choice, which almost certainly he won’t be once Dovin is fit.

If Dovin is out until Christmas then we will need someone who’s capable of being number one the entire season. I think Dovin is a good keeper but there should be no guarantee he gets straight back into the side and it will probably bode poorly for our prospects next season if he does.

I think everyone's jumping the Gunn a bit here

We've been here before

Overall, this is good news!

Either way, it’s time to move on and think of about signing a competent GK in case Dovin doesn’t come back early or gets injured again. Irrespective of what league we’re in next season, we need to phase out Collins and Wilson.

If they trust Luke Bell, perhaps it’s worth trying him in preseason.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Not good enough with the ball at his feet for the way Lampard likes to play.

I feel like the most likely option is a highly rated PL youngster on loan.

Phaser Gunn?

I think we're at that point where almost any vaguely competent keeper available on a free suddenly looks like a mouth watering prospect.

I’m available!

The good news is that I can start now, no transfer fee required and I’m happy to play just for travelling and other expenses.

The less good news is that I’m 70, have arthritis in both knees and my left hip and I’m grossly overweight.

For context the Opta stats show that my ability is behind Dovin and Bell by a humiliatingly huge amount.

I am however rated above Collins
