Because he cost £4m and we can probably sell him in a season or two for a small profit if he does ok.
What are we? Pawn shop merchants?

We recruited him as our second goalkeeper. He would need to start every game if Onana got injured (or when Onana was shit and we needed better) but he is not even championship level, so thank God Onana is not injured, and we have no alternative to Onana

There are plenty of $4M nothing goalkeepers in some remote leagues, nobody buys them for top clubs

It was a very bad job by recruitement/whoever made decision
 
great bounce-back performance from him. he’s a young and promising goalkeeper, it’s going to be bumpy for a bit, but his mentality shine through. maybe he’ll come good here. great management from amorim to trust him in a game where he is massively in the spotlight. he’s really growing into the role and there are so many small shoots emanating from the club to be positive about.

———————

he’s massively wank and not a moment should be wasted between now and him ending up in an ineos oil barrel. any scout who recommended him that hasn’t already been made redundant should have his entire family lined up outside their house and shot in front of them. and feck amorim for thinking he would be good enough for a game of such magnitude. he’s one step back, three steps back. clearly not cut out for a club of this magnitude or in a country where the level of the football is so high. can’t wait until he’s sacked and he goes back and grows corn in portugal with his tail tucked between his legs.

will revisit on sunday.

He best be on it this Sunday. Can see another mistake costing us the game. Arsenal with their set pieces
 
I refuse to write off a player based on 2 shaky games, it’s silly. Not enough chances to show his worth to be honest.

He was first choice at Fenerbahce so must be good enough to be number 2 or maybe pushing Onana a little bit. Look forward to him in this competition if we go far.

...Yes, not sure if you have seen the news but we are cutting everywhere. Heaton is probably more than good enough to be a No2 anyway.

Yes, I think Heaton is better than Bayindir :) I heard he wants to leave, though?
 
This performance alone will ensure he has a good career. World class performance
 
Can't kick. Can save.
Massive saves from him today, great game.
 
Fair play, stood up after the poor punch for Arsenal's goal and did really well.

Brilliant! Well done lad.
 
Deserves to start the next league game. Showed good shot stopping today and coped better with crosses than Onana did against Arsenal
 
Didn´t know he had this in him but he turned the game for us. Both the penalty saves were absolute top class.
 
I know it's easy to heap praise on him now and obviously deserved; but I feel so much more confident when we have a physically imposing and box commandeering goalie on the pitch.
 
Good performance besides the kicking and that one punch. Earned himself another FA Cup game for sure.
 
The two pens he saved were actually fantastic. Not bad pens at all
 
What the actual feck....he looked massive next to Bruno. Didn't realise he's 6'6?! How did I miss that. Did he grow a few inches since coming to the club :lol:

Shite in the air but that length definitely helped in his saves across the floor and for the two penalties.
 
His kicking was poor but he did way better than Onana when he played at the Emirates.
