Why do some posters just put initials, some of us thick bastards have no idea who you’re on about.

For the right price, I'd let him go, and provided we had a replacement through the door before he left. 

I like JG, he has a lot of potential, but it's still potential. His numbers this season are bottom 25% of the Championship in terms of goals prevented, saves %, and distribution. For all the rave reviews he got in Leagues 1 and 2 for MOTM performances he's cost us more points than he's won us.

If he realises his potential, he will be a very good Champ GK, and he may well get PL games in the future, but if his sale enabled us to get a more reliable GK and fix our right side, as well as put some money in the pot for a midfielder in the summer I'd let him go.

This Transfer with Griffiths came around when somebody posted wrongly as it’s turned out that Griffiths was only left out to be sold in the transfer window to a then unnamed Midlands club. He may still leave but he’s back playing regular.the same as posters were saying Dike won’t get on the pitch because he’s on his way back to America, again wrong. 
Some posters come up with utter rubbish, but eventually they get one right and say I told you so.

On Blues and keepers. They were definitely interested in JG but I’m not sure if he’s much better than RA albeit younger and in my opinion, he’s not as good as JB. However, I think JB is only on loan and maybe he’s being called back?

Would it hurt to maybe use a surname as not all of us are au fait with JB and RA? And BS neither! Big Grin

Just googled the Blues squad. IMHO both their GKs are US. JG much better.

One source on X/twitter linking us with out of favour keeper Anthony Patterson from sunderland fwiw

He would be an improvement on what we have thats for sure - but I would say if we are limited to just a few then keeper would be a lower down priority. 

An actual RB or RWB (system dependent) and at least 1 CM is urgently needed

Agree. Plus a left footed centre half who can actually run.

Patterson got quite out of shape last season. Myhill would love him.
