Given? on 18:25 - May 22 by brendan | Given???? Yes Please!! Top pro, years left in him. Can't believe one of the real big teams didn't sign him at some stage. |
I'm not so sure, Yes many keepers play on until they are 40 but Shilts and Seaman were not as good in their late 30's as they were in their mid or early 30's. For me the stand out keeper available has to be Robinson. | | | |
Given? on 18:57 - May 22 with 942 views | TheBlob | I would rather go for a younger foreign keeper.All the aforementioned keepers are past their sell by imho.Maybe one will become apparent after the Euro tournament.I'd hold fire until then. | |

Given? on 03:15 - May 22 by hoopstar67 | I'm sorry how can you reject Given? By far one of the best keepers in the country and you want to reject him for Foster who had a nightmare of a game against us.Foster is always prone to mistakes. |
Cerny is old enough and I don't see signing a 37 year old the way forward. Foster is a better age and I just want to see a taller keeper. Don't get me wrong Given is the best shot stopper out there but foster isn't too shabby either. You are judging him on 1 game against us? I'd like to look at his season where he has been very good. His replacement against arsenal on the last game of the season cost them all 3 pts, with foster both goals wouldn't of gone in. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Given? on 17:01 - May 22 by adhoc_qpr | Hennessey is decent enough, but he's out for the next 6 months at least with a damaged cruciate ligament. Sadly for Paddy, he just couldn't replicate hisChampionship winning form whether due to the better standard or his injuries i'm not sure. I'd take any of the keeper mentioned over him - Given, Robinson, Green, Foster. |
I'd forgotten about the injury, shame. | | | |

Given? on 23:27 - May 21 by SpiritofGregory | Hughes doesn't rate Paddy. Must say I've been really disappointed with Paddy this season and now understand why he has never been signed by an established premier league club. Given is quality. Can't stand Green, I always get the feeling that he'll at some point during a match drop a clanger. |
Why do you think Hughes doesn't rate Paddy? Hughes played Paddy in front of Cerny every game that Paddy was fit. when Paddy was injured Cerny came in and did a good job. However, we ended the season with a string of clean sheets and Paddy in goal. If Hughes was going to bring in a new goalie, why would he have given Cerny a new contract. He obviously rates Paddy higher than Cerny, so if you think we are getting a new goalie, you have to believe that he thinks we can afford to have Paddy as our #2 and Cerny as our #3 goalie. That doesn't really make any sense. The fact that Cerny just signed a new contract makes me think that he isn't bringin is anyone new between the sticks | |

Given? on 01:44 - May 23 with 858 views | SAR | Shay Given too old? Look at Friedel at Spurs. He's been a great signing for them and he's 41 | | | |
Given? on 02:04 - May 23 with 851 views | stuartqpr | Given would be a superb signing. solid keeper, prob earned villa a fair few points this season. As a keeper myself I find it difficult to watch Paddy at times this season, especially the dzeko header the other week, how can you head a corner in from 2 yards without the keeper claiming it? He had a great season last year, unfortunately i don't think he has the ability to take us to the next level. | | | |
Given? on 02:33 - May 23 with 844 views | Kiwi76 | Agree Given is top goalie but example of Dzecko goal would probably have happened exactly the same with him there as no more dominant on crosses than Kenny. Going to be a lot of nonsense this close season but names we are getting linked with are better quality nonsense than previous! | | | |

Very sorry, no offence meant mate, substitute for a more appropriate word, perhaps butterfingers. It was just such a long way to travel to watch such an apalling error. It cost me about 1000 quid as well as the rest of it. I still can't fathom how a pro keeper could let that in. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Given still has a few years left in him,best keeper in the country,yes Foster is good,but he is not in the class of Given,and i have seen him a few times,is always prone to making mistakes,rather have robinson than foster,but if there was the slightest chance of Given then its a no brainer. | | | |

As much as I rate Given very highly as one of the best keepers in the country, he isn't THE best. That would have to be Joe Hart who is currently an exceptional keeper who still has his best years ahead of him. Out of all the names of keepers being bandied about (and assuming we're on the look out for one which as Dylan rightly says isn't a certainty anyway!), I would go for Al-Habsi. Absolute quality keeper who has probably done more than most to keep Wigan in the Prem for the last 2 years. His (quality) saves on a very regular and consistant basis must've gained Wigan countless points. Tall, commanding and very agile. | | | |
Given? on 13:40 - May 23 with 743 views | derbyhoop | Looks like we are on the hunt for a keeper. I'd prefer someone younger than Kenny. Al habsi is a good shout. Also look at Courtois. | |

Given? on 13:42 - May 23 with 739 views | simmo | If Arsenal had bought him 5 years ago they probably would have won a thing or 2..... Better than we have but not a long term signing. Foster would be my choice although he does love to move around. Id take them both over Green all day long | |
