Mart Poom

Cantona

I read in the paper that he would like to come to United, anyone think this could happen? I'd prefer him then David James
 
I think that's the one position we're sorted with. Roy and Ricardo are both fine keepers and are able back-up to Fab, who looks back on form.
 
I dont think Roy will be sticking around for much longer though, he'll be wasting his talents as a third keeper for us
 
Not according to Fergie as Ricardo starts on the bench now. But Poom would be good if one of the GK left
 
Until Ricardo has got a few games under his belt and proved himself, Roy should have the spot he so richly deserves imo. Saying that, I didnt know Ricardo had been on the bench recently so I guess he must be 2nd choice. :o

I think ur probablt right, for one we haven't lost when Roy has been in goal - even the ZTE match was two legged and we won overall. Also Roy is far more expereinced. Carroll has a total of over 200 apps in his career where as Ricardo just passed 50. And Carroll has 10 times as many international caps.
 
Poom isn't coming to Manchester United, James is not coming to Manchester United. We already have a world class goalkeeper named Barthez and 2 very good back ups.

As for all the rumours about Barthez 'possibly wanting to go at the end of the season' - <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" />

Haven't we heard that before?
 
yea this topics a bit silly & any stories linking keepers to us for the forseeable future are b.s
barthez is fit and playing very well again. In Roy Carroll we have a great backup & by all accounts the 3rd keeper is more than able too.
we're well covered for GK.
 
If we do get into a bit of trouble im sure Tony Cotton will put his kit back on. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Fab has talked about his situation at United during a press conference given just before France-Slovenia. He said that the board had bought Ricardo because he was going to be operated (his injury was bleeding a lot). Eventually he didn't need an operation. He said "all those rumours are lies from the British press, I know what's happening inside the club and what Tony Coton really thinks".

BTW, I can't believe that the rumours still go on, even after Ricardo has come... :rolleyes:
