Robin Roefs 🇳🇱 compendium


Seems sensible to me. We have a decent keeper, only young in keeper terms and still improving hopefully. I don't see it as a major weakness so we need to keep the cash for other areas. Spending £20M on a keeper was probably too much so we've gone down the younger route again. Fair enough.
I'd agree with this. Hopefully he is here to compete with Patto for the Number 1 spot. Personally, i'm happy if Patto starts as number 1 and this kid is here so we have 2x good keepers. Matty Young in the wings, Moore 3rd choice and Blondy probably has to go.
 
His data is middling. This is underwhelming after some of the targets we’ve gone for. Given the expected market price of Patterson, this falls more into the competition bracket than an obvious number one imo.

I wanted the Ukranian.


Difference is two keepers who will both expect to be number 1. An improvement in the keeping department by a distance. Moore came knowing he would never ever be number 1.

It seems a really solid signing.
 
Not every signing has to be 20+ million.
When will people learn we don’t just sign Willy nilly either. Even with players that haven’t worked out like ba etc all players we sign have had work done on them. He seems highly rated u21 int and was linked to teams in other top flight leagues. Very young and cost what’s now seen as a low fee.
 
Not a chance in the world this lad is coming in to play second fiddle to Patto. I get that Patto is from the academy so gets the “let the local lads have a go” nod of approval from some on here, but he’s not actually very good, and would be massively exposed in the premier league where we are likely to be up against it on a weekly basis.
