Seen a few articles strongly linking us to Werder Bremen GK Felix Wiedwald, not familiar with any of the sources but retweeted by Phil Hay for what its worth.
Can't comment on the guy as know nothing about him, but would be harsh on Green after last season if he doesn't start the season as Number 1.

Anddonrevie. I wasnt having a go at you just saying that generally championship is not as hard as some make it out to be.

Odd, I think you'll find most Europeans say the Championship is the hardest league in the world to get out off!..
Mates off mine all say there's a lot more passion and grit to it, its a lot harder, and teams have to much to lose!..

lufcgermany The championship has lots of physical battles and tempo. Buts most teams are defficient in technical ability. Lets not compete physically, let the football do the talking.

Abu - don't understand that comment - you need both technical and physical attributes to get out of this league. The 89/90 team was a classic example of good footy and a team who couldn't be easily knocked off the ball.

rev. Yeah you do need to be physical. But lets not focus too much on that. We play good footy and we will win comfortably most times.

Championship is the hardest. More game sand more teams being competitive meaning more harder physical games than in leagues with cannon fodder sides. The championship teams also enter the league cup earlier than the premier league. We played was it 58 games last season? The premier league is only 38.

Abu, for me you can bring back 70s football, better than the overpaid fall over merchants of today!..
The Championship is as competitive as any, you want the football your suggesting you'd do better following a club in the Premiership or abroad!..
The player's in the Championship are made for that league, the better player's are playing the football you want but in higher leagues!..
A reason why we don't get to many in the Championship!..

Regarding this Weidwald guy, there's a bit of none-too-flattering info in this florest article:

Might just be sour grapes, but the stats don't seem very good at all.
