Technically, we're filling the much asked for 'back-up
keeper' slot. However, is this Kiko Casilla MkII?

Orta sure loves that Spanish wishing well.

24 clean sheets from 78 games for Betis. Not bad at all and 32 isn't old for a keeper. Remember him playing for Everton.

Well Hopefully he’d never play. That’s the gig with back-up keepers so you aren’t getting Any superstars. On the face of it, seems the right profile. PL experience, not too old. Meant to be a good guy behind the scenes. Seem to Recall that Everton fans quite liked him but a few years back.

He was also at Wigan briefly on loan and actually won the fa Cup with them.

Can't really complain about this one, we were never going g to sign another first choice keeper so essentially he is the sort of player you are going to get.

Plenty of experience and im sure he will be fine

True he ticks plenty of boxes.

LB & striker and we're ready.

As long as "we're" not paying him 50k a week for 5 years like Casilla. I am new to this board, does this mean we take turns in paying this 50k? Where was this in the terms and conditions of this board. Do you really mean that the management of the club are paying the money?
With the deepest respect I think you are cofusing your role as a supporter with the role of an owner, not quite the same thing.

Such confusion could lead to somone claiming someone else's land, country. Putin sees to think he owns the next door country

In the immortal words of Dirty Harry a man has know his limitations, I self identify as an idiot, because i am always wrong. I would give you a 5*, if i knew how to do it. Is there a cure for a fragile ego?

If I buy a packet of Everton mints does it mean I own the football club? What do I have to buy to own the Arsenal?

Couple of Everton season ticket holders i know said he is terrible.
32 years old and only 117 league career games.
A journeyman number 2. Lets hope he is very cheap wages

I thought that as well Kebab, he got to be Real Betis no, 1 in 19/20 because Pau Lopez left for Roma and made no league appearances for Betis last year, presumably because they got somebody better in. Take his spell as Real Betis default no 1 out of the equation and he played 93 games in 11 seasons.
This guy seems to be a down-grade on Kiko. He is out of contract for a reason.
Klaesson looks a better prospect.

Where's the experience? and what boxes does he tick?

posted on 4/8/22

Last season, he was third choice at Real Betis behind Rui Silver and 39 year old Claudio Bravo. Please let this not be true.

Are you saying he is some sort of guru? I am new to this board and I am not really aware of Jonty, could it be what he writes is questioned by some?
I remember reading that someone attracts negative comments for only giving 1* posts, he seems to be somewhat unknown, like the Phantom pie flinger of old London town. It was corrbett and Barker, from a time when comedians were actually funny.

Raspberry blower surely, flan flinger was tiswas. Tarrant, Carolgees, Gormon, Henry and (ohhh) Sally James (in leather thigh length boots).

On Wiki it says Sally James is 72, how can that be possible? And she runs a business selling school uniforms (oh man).
