Unless we buy another keeper - which we will not - we have no option but to stick with him. The nerves were evident yesterday [first half] but hopefully they will be banished sooner rather than later.
The Man U coaching staff had been following the lad for sometime and I'm sure they knew what they were doing when they chose him to replace VDS. But as the commentator asked at one point yesterday, "How do you replace the best?"
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
