I think you have to be careful how many big personalities you lose in one season though... If we see Branthwaite, Gana and Onana all leave, plus Danjuma seems well liked, Harrison... Maybe Young retires (please god!), then you can't afford to see such a big personality go too.

The dressing room is vastly important for any club, but especially for us given our likely struggles and points deductions again next season.

I wouldn't sell him at any cost.

I would've jibbed him about 3 years ago because I thought he was a bit of a liability but he's really started to realise his potential.

Probably the most important player in our team and we definitely wouldn't have stayed up without him over the past 3 seasons.

i wouldnt sell him unless its really stupid money, we dont have many actual top quality players here if we want to get away from relegation fights year on year we need to keep our best players how many points has he won us this season from his saves

our defence has been the one positive this season

Couldn't even imagine him in a Chelsea shirt tbh, would be a bad move for him anyway.

Haven’t they already got about 40 senior goalkeepers

Every player is for sale at the right price and everyone knows we're skint. If an offer comes in then it'll either be kicked out or negotiations will begin. I doubt we'd get a decent enough offer for him but if we did I wouldn't be heartbroken if we sold him for a big fee.

I would.

Think he’s contributed massively to our points this season. Who has consistently contributed more? We don’t have any major regular goalscorers who have contributed in almost every single game we’ve played. Did you see the number of saves he’s had to make to almost get the same amount of clean sheets as the other guy up for the keeper of the season? Thats contributing to every single game bar the 5-0, 6-0 types (and even then he probably kept our goal difference from being even worse). We have no outfield player who contributes that much to our whole season - not even Tarkowski.

Yeah, we'll still sell if the money's right.
