Dickie Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Doesn't seem like much of an upwards movement now for him leaving Stoke... however he did get his premier league title even if he did ride the pine.

I definitely agree, I'm trying to think of other players that did that to win a title, willing to sit on the bench in their prime to get that cup.
Lucas Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Good signing for Bournemouth. They continue to make shrewd buys and this was an area they needed to strengthen. I love the way Eddie Howe goes about his business. The way they continually improve their squad, you can see them consolidating their place in the division for the next couple years for sure.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted May 30, 2017 Subscriber Posted May 30, 2017 Should be a quality addition for Bournemouth, you know you actually are 'established' when you start bringing these in, well done to them.
Toony Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Works well for all parties really, Bournemouth get a quality goalkeeper who's far too good to be sitting on the bench every week, Chelsea make a profit on someone who's hardly played and Begovic gets first team football.
carefreeluke Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Hit and miss for us, not helped obviously by a lack of continuity in playing time but other GK's have played second fiddle for us and performed better. Should be a decent signing for Bournemouth though.
True Blue Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Did well last season when Courtois was out, saved our blushes as much as he could. I always knew he would be number two no matter what. He is too good to be a second keeper for any team, wish him well in Bournemouth.
Danny Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Class signing for Bournemouth, slowly improving with him and Defoe but I think they'll need more if they're to go for Europa finish/Cup success.
Dave Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Given how impressive he was for a number of years at Stoke I think this is an ideal signing. He seems the type of character that will remain motivated too, which is where most players who have failed to consolidate a place at a top club struggle. For the price it's an impressive signing.

He fell off and was a bit disinterested towards the end, that's why we finally pull the trigger on putting Butland in full time.
