Just anytime ive seen games with him, his distribution etc and at times he's looked erratic Other times he's a tremendous keeper, and a lot of them are erratic i suppose, i just dont rate him as highly as others, he's still at everton for a reason maybe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Traive 23,284 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Slightly unnerved by a four year deal on seemingly high wages. Bit of a yellow flag for me but it may have been a condition we had to accept to get the deal done. Hope he’s worth it.

No, but a red flag and I’d have my “Butland oot” placard already made. Yellow flag means that I’ll give him a chance but that I have more reservations than the Sioux and Cheyenne combined.

KaiserJon 12,506 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Regards pre season friendlies I think we are Hoffenheim opposition for late July. Bonus the opposition normally stay in Bad Rappeneau before a game against Hoffenheim. If that is true, only talked about at this point, would be the Hoffenheim " season opener " game. They have a fun fair, beer stalls etc. We have the pre season in southern Germany, play this game, then first Euro qualification game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1872 21,199 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Scott Burns reporting Cremonese wanting £6.5 million for Dessers. No chance we are paying that for a 28 year old.

OrangeRab 3,070 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Guessing 4 year deal was probably the only way to get him to sign.

This has got to be one of the worst takes/opinions I have seen on here in a long, long time! He conceded 1 goal in the 5 games he started after the split...the goal was scored by Hibs from a corner, after a very good save by him, but I dont think theres any blame on him for that goal. On top of that he made a number of very good saves and was decent with the ball at his feet. How you have watched those games and felt he was like "a rabbit in headlights" is beyond me.
