Pope 99% in the bag.. Your getting a top keeper there. Been first class. Proof be in the pudding with pope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornet is priced at 17m which is more reasonable than Watford wanting 40m for Sarr. i say your club is realistic and not greedy con merchants. you wanted 30m for McNeil which is also close to reasonable especially with the right manager he could refund his form Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Palace Fan 2,954 Posted Tuesday at 20:00 Share Posted Tuesday at 20:00 Elliot Anderson for a recently relegated club would be an extremely underwhelming signing. A mid table / bottom half side with ambitions of progressing up the table next year would be more beneficial for everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil 759 Posted Tuesday at 20:01 Share Posted Tuesday at 20:01 Seen him at Altrincham markets recently and he's absolutely huge. Amazing bit of business by Newcastle, I honestly thought they'd got for Henderson off us but Pope for 10 million is an absolute bargain.

I'm seeing absolute fucking planks on places like twitter saying oh relegated can't be much good probably never watched him live in their life. Pope been injured few times while he's been with us too. Spent almost a full season out.. I see people saying oh but Burnley was a defence team that's why he looked OK. Yep we are defensive under dyche when he was here but trust me pope faced plenty of shots game in game out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less than 20 games over two seasons for United? Hardly a good yard stick to base his ability on given most keepers need consistent game time to show their best form. I like Pope and I believe he's a decent keeper but I wouldn't say he's better than Henderson until Dean has found his feet at a club and settled down.

Well same as anything to do with footballers. What I've seen of the two keepers that's what. I think Henderson is an OK keeper just think pope is better. I see united fans saying Henderson is better than degea they are off their fucking heads. When Henderson got into the United side last season for 12 or 13 games he didn't look that assured to me.

Pope always looks calm to me with ball at his feet Seems like most of the time these days they want a sweeper keeper who can do step overs give me a keeper who does his actual job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably something to do with the dog shit defence in front of him So you said you didn't rate him yet you acknowledged the dog shit defence in front of him. Make your mind up because I'm confused. Henderson's Sheffield United form was sensational, far way and above anything displayed by Pope at Burnley. Admittedly he hasn't since found that form again but then again as you pointed out he hasn't exactly had the best defence in front of him. Pope on the other hand was just relegated from the Premier league, do we judge him on that or do we just acknowledge the fact he had a team with about 2 players above League 1 standard in front of him.

I think there is a top keeper in there, just won't see it at United due to the fact we haven't got time to develop a keeper given our piss poor team.
