What a save...

I hope the leaking of goals at Forest does not have Leicester rethinking next season’s options….

Did you see the interview with one of Forest's coaches talking about their manager (can't remember the guy's name but he was Irish).
He said, "He likes to play out from the back and plays it through the turds!"
I nearly spurted my coffee out!🤣

The stuff on Quest was interesting. Is the Handball story true about him? Definitely has the technique like he is a good player at that sport also

Very much so. Think he's even admitted to preferring to watch Handball over Football. That save yesterday very much reminded me of a typical save attempt within Handball too.
 
Be interesting to see what his next move is. Won't get in the Leicester team and his football ability will put off many Prem teams.

Sadly, I think one of the bigger Champ hitters will sign him in the summer.

He's on a long-term contract with Leicester so I doubt they'll be willing to sell him just yet as it's likely to be another two years before they'll need a new number one. As a shot stopper, he's good enough for the Prem already but he's got the old lead boots on at times. If clubs aren't careful they'll fall into the trap of what cricket teams do who pick a wicketkeeper based on his batting ability first rather than the thing he's actually needed in the team for.

I think we've got a choice of getting him back next season as I doubt any prem team willing to take him on loan will be able to guarantee him first team football.
 
Can’t honestly think of any better loan signings in my 35 years watching. Should be a starter in the Prem but more than happy he’s with us.

Just thought this deserves its own thread and recognition of just how good this second save was.

I think all of us thought Eaves had scored as soon as it hit his head but the great dane thought otherwise.

Could of been a different result without him. Iversen is arguably the best keeper in the division. We are lucky to have him here.
 
Certainly be interesting to see what happens with him next season

Kasper been off form this season and Ward can be a bit ropey at times (as you may have seen at the weekend)

Kasper's deal runs out in 2023 and after comments made earlier this season about still wanting to play CL football it is thought that he may leave when his contract ends and go off somewhere like Portugal or Denmark etc where he can join one of their top teams and play CL for a few seasons

If Ward leaves this summer I think he will be kept as number 2

If Ward stays, I think Iversen goes out on loan for another season

Then in 2023 when Kasper may leave he will compete with whoever our other senior keeper is for number 1

Assuming Daniel will be unavailable for loan next season it could leave us requiring 4 new goal keepers.

Not an ideal situation to be in.

I’d say 3, one starter, one bench, one training keeper and then Oli Lombard. Maybe even promote Oli to training keeper and have Duggan or Prajic as the youngster

Don't think he did great at Kendal though so not sure if he gets kept on.

Still playing for the U19s isn't he?

No clue, know literally nothing about the keepers. Only picked him cos he’s oldest and would save us money on needing 3 keepers

Always assumed the club rated him as I could never understand the contract after what happened with Hudson
 
I can see Dan getting bought by another PL club to be their second choice 'keeper, for somewhere between £5 - 10M.

If Burnley stay up he’d do well there given his distribution weaknesses

Alternatively, Brentford will be on the look out for a keeper and have been in for him before
 
Don't care in the Least that SKY etc haven't "discovered" the saves. They only act in the interests of Prem. Clubs who might come in for him next season.... naturally I want him to stay at Deepdale instead.
Publicity is a double-edged sword.
