Yeah we won't have 5 keepers on the books Inc Smithies. 

 

Is Stolarcyk good enough to be a number 2 should Mads get injured? Not for me, rather keep Iversen but highly doubt he'd be happy with that role.

 

I actually thought Ward might be the number 2, because I don't see us shifting him. Iversen will get snapped up by someone in this division for sure.

100% my line of thought. 

 

We won't have much choice but to keep Ward where as we can probably make a couple of million selling Iversen to a Championship club or to somewhere like Germany / France. 

 

Smithies will likely just stay as inexpensive emergency backup and Stol gets a loan.

Hermansen was 'one of the stars of the team from day one'published at 12:01

 

Danish football journalist Sebastian Stanbury has been discussing Foxes transfer target goalkeeper Mads Hermansen on BBC Radio Leicester's When You're Smiling podcast: "Two years ago, Brondby lost a goalkeeper [Schwabe] who went home to Germany after winning the Championship with Brondby. There wasn't really any debate about who was going to succeed him - it was going to be Mads Hermansen, who is from their youth academy.

"He stepped right into the side, played from day one after Schwabe left, and has never really looked back since. He became a very good player - one of the stars of the team from day one.

"There's never been any doubt that he was a starter at Brondby. Actually, the question was: 'When is he going to leave?' His performances were of a quality that made him a sales object [target]."

Stanbury on Hermansen's best qualities: "Even bigger than playing out from the back and playing with his feet, his main quality is his reflexes. He's just a good shotstopper, he's very good on the line, and he's hard to get through with shots.

"This spring-season in Denmark, he made a triple save against FC Nordsaelland that was so good Brondby made a T-shirt commemorating it. They were really extraordinary saves."

Great signing. Now sell Ward, waste of wages 

 

 

Sell?  Can’t we just throw him in with another outgoing player? Or just throw him?

Who are people going to blame now when a 6ft 1 keeper doesn't command his box, in the absence of Stowell.

Wellens!

I’m gonna get in there now and say you’re pronouncing Mads wrong.

 

It’s something a bit like Muls, but our Danish contingent will clarify.

 

@FerrisBueller

The "d" is not pronounced so its actually just "mas"...

Can you imagine the terror every time it looks like Mads may be injured. I'm not sure the coaching staff or the fan base could deal with that level of anxiety !1

Seeing how I might be a bit of an expert on the topic, it's pronounced like "mess".

 

The a is pronounced like in "hat"

Where? Who's going to have them?

At present it looks slim.But no idea how Smithies is rated around the football world & how he sees his chances..

Ward is definitely a number 2 . . . 

 

Hopefully somewhere else

This will still be the case, but we might get away with it more this season compared to last because of the drop in comparative quality. We might have 70% possession in a lot of games so won't face too many shots on goal.

 

Admittedly, though, when those shots come, we will all be bricking it. I was one of those that wanted a new keeper / Iversen even in the spell just before the World Cup where he got a lot of clean sheets. His fundamentals for a goalkeeper are awful.
