We must go for him asap.

At 33 I think we should look elsewhere especially as no doubt they will want a decent fee.

Not sure what the fee will be but the age is no problem, 33 is young for a keeper.

Is it though, as others have said a lot of clubs are now going with younger keepers. If we pay a decent fee no doubt he would want a 3 year deal on a decent wage, after that is he 36 and will have a zero value. Someone like Johnstone from villa gives us a good keeper who will still be an asset in 3 years.

Warnock has said before about buying assets and I think that's how we will proceed.

You are right and I hope he goes for assets as we don't need journeymen
