If the club is going to sell Kasper (I doubt it) we need to push the boat out for Nick Pope now that Burnley are relegated. 
Best English keeper imho

I don't begrudge him having a final few years in the sun but we'll miss him when he's gone.

Was just about to post the same. I think Pope would be a great addition

If there's an offer look out for the white smoke coming from the KP.

Where we? Do you have a source for that? Seem to remember us having one of the best records in the league either last season or the one before.

No chance we go for Nick Pope. Whoever we buy will be able to distribute the ball half-decently at least. 

Agreed. Not a Leicester type player/signing whatsoever

Have to disagree because Kasper is pretty poor with distribution.

 

Pope is able to take crosses and also a very good shot stopper so I'd take him in a heartbeat.

Rodgers wants his keeper to be able to distribute the ball, Pope looks like he’s got concrete blocks on his feet. Agree he is a good shot stopper and much more commanding than Kasper but I don’t think we’d go for him for the above reason.

Schmeichel is much better than Nick Pope.

thats not really the discussion, unfortunately. If Kasper wants a move, we will need to get a replacement in.

Think it's all irrelevant. We're not going to spend what Burnley will want on a goalkeeper, there are far more pressing areas to address.

He won't get the wages that we pay him at a second tier Champions League team abroad. If he wants to run his contract down, and go on a free, we need to push the agenda and either play Ward as number one or bring in a replacement now. He has been a great servant to the club but a season long farewell tour is no good for the team, no one is irreplaceable.

If he goes it will be at the end of his contract surely ?

Positives if Schmeichel leaves:

 

- Frees up the wage bill. Could give us some funds to improve Maddison’s contract and pay the wages for new signings.

- We already have a replacement in house. I think a few of us were quick to get on Iversen’s back after a couple mistakes which is a bit harsh. Stolarczyk is also a good option.

- Kasper not coming off his line plays a part in our set piece issues. Hopefully his replacement will punch/catch the ball.

 

Negatives if Schmeichel leaves:

 

- He is a club legend. We will miss his presence in the dressing room.

- We will lose a leader on/off the pitch. We don’t have too many of those left.

- He’s a very good Keeper.

- Captain material.

- Again, a club legend. :schmike:

You know what, I could well see this happening. Something doesn't feel right with Kasper this summer. Him going as our joint highest earner would make a significant dent in the wages issue.

But do the club see Ward or Iversen as being good enough?

 

Because if not were are we finding the money to get in a replacement?

I think the jury will be out and we may still look to bring another keeper in long term. But if we lose Kasper on £150k a week and get a replacement for £50-60k a week then that starts to open things up. We then may start to agree covering proportions of the likes of Hamza, Praet, Vestergaards wages etc to get them out the door so we can bring players in.

 

Don't forget, it keeps being said it's not transfer fees we haven't the money for but cannot increase our wage bill.

I think Iversen will be the replacement long term. I can’t see us spending money on a keeper when we don’t have the proverbial pot to piss in

Is Danny Ward a professional golf player?
