Then give him the cup games for development and everyone is fully aligned. We’ve got a lot of highly rated young gks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s very unlikely that we have a GK on the books now that will be anywhere near good enough to replace Emi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A novice with truly world class potential (a GK version of Duran) that sees the value in playing 15 games a season and learning from one of the best keepers in the world.

I wouldn't want any young keeper playing 15 games a season instead of Emi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did this with Manuel Neuer with great success. My main issue is the training side, would a young ambitious GK prepare Emi to the standard Olsen does.

DakotaVilla Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Emi’s not going to play every game (especially with the internationals) and it would be crazy to plan on that basis. Plenty of cup games if we stay in Europe to blood such a young player in their very early 20’s. Bring back Emi for the big games if and when we go deep in any competition.

sne Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Bayern did sign Alexander Nübel to be the understudy to Neuer back in 2020. Still hasn't taken over even thou Neuer almost ended his career going skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattVillaPortsmouth Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Was he really that bad - No. Tried to play the way we want to, sometimes distribution didn’t work out but then the risks we take regardless on who’s between the posts. Not his biggest fan, but can’t grumble today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
