He's decent but on balance probably not no. |  |

I think he’s better than CW but he’s not good enough either. That move would look like desperation but we can’t be that far away from doing something. |  |

Based on PL performances, yes. But Palmer compared unfavourably with Walton in the Champ last season. I think Van Oevelen is worth a try when fit. Outfield-player good with his feet. He doesn't concede that first goal today. [Post edited 8 Nov 16:17]

GON have backed himself into a corner with the Scherpen/Walton call then came out an said that Walton was the number one all along. It's going to take a brave decision from him to change again, even if its potentially the right one. What a mess. |  |

No. He literally palms the ball to strikers |  |

No I don't think so |  | | |

No, that’s why CW gets picked ahead of him. |  |

I suspect they’re all much of a muchness. We’ve got four senior goalkeepers (five if you can include slicker but he’s clearly nowhere near the first team) and not withstanding small sample size for Scherpen none of them appear good enough.
If it were possible in jan, I’d like to see Walton and Palmer move on (or perhaps one of them stay as a backup) then Scherpen out on loan and a new loan for van oevelen and all in for someone that can actually really play at this level |  |

I think the biggest concern, is despite having options, none of them look good enough. Which is staggering. Palmer and Walton are on par - both championship keepers though. | | | |

The Halo of Absence (Out of Sight, Out of Critique): When a player is actively on the pitch, every mistake, missed pass, or bad defensive error is broadcasted in real time. When players are sidelined, they stop committing fresh errors and fans naturally stop accumulating negative data points about them. |  | | |

Well, let's put it this way. He's the only one with a decent amount of PL experience, and seldom let us down in the PL last time. If you want a keeper to be mainly concerned with stopping attempts on goal, I certainly don't see he's any worse than what we've seen so far. On the other hand if you prefer a keeper to pretend he's really a silky skilled midfielder who can turn on a 5p piece, but really can't, then you probably have to look elsewhere. |  | | |

No, hes definitely not better than Walton. Not a chance
He's a distant third choice after CW and KS. The choice to make is CW or KS. I'd loan Palmer out frankly and get someone in who might challenge the other 2 |  |

Scherpen has had 4 appearances. Far too soon to to be writing him off, comparing him against Palmer or opting to send him on loan. Complete madness. [Post edited 9 Nov 2:02]
