Chelsea getting a lot of links. I think we'd be foolish to sell to anyone on the conventional top 6, even if it means we accept a lower fee
I’ll just say it…

It is but that’s what happens when your no2 to the best in the would that saves the unsavable at times.
Agree, as Kelleher would be an upgrade (or at worst a lateral talent but younger) for every side except perhaps City.
Considering where the game has gone in terms of the number of fixtures he should be rotated. Saying 1 game a season is rubbish. Ali is good to play for the majority of the season and until such point as he’s not then he’s no1 for me. So no right now it’s not worth considering not having Ali here as as no1.
Hardly bollocks, it’s based on years of evidence of Allison making saves others simply don’t. I also think Kellehers positioning at times isn’t as good as it could be but he’s still learning.
Not even close to being correct.
In the league Ali played almost 3 times as many games 28 to 10.
People are getting carried away.
32 appearances in all competitions for Ali and 26 for Kelleher. It was close. Just not is Kelleher favour.
Kelleher got the league cup games so can’t really count those in this comparison as Ali wasn’t getting selected regardless.
He was unavailable for a load of the fixtures due to injury including the final.
Wasn’t on just about the league, and wasn’t getting carried away. Was more a question about his penalty saves this season which you didn’t bother to read.
Might as well ignore the number of league games he’s played last season and this season too then since if Ali was available, he wouldn’t played any of those either…
Apologies I thought you were asking in terms of many games Kelleher played due to Ali being injured.
Kelleher has played more games than Alisson this season.
Which means he’s not currently playing the majority of our games.
At which point does it become an issue - how many games does he have to miss before you accept there is - 50%?
Well you’ve gone from 1 game to 50%. Tbh I only see Kelleher getting this many games as a positive. He was 100% gone if he only got the league cup this season.
I think he’s 100% gone if Ali’s still here.
The 1 game to 50% is for your benefit - I’m trying to tease out your typing point because you’re being vague.
As far as I’m concerned, his age, injury history and the fact it seems to be becoming more frequent, added to his contract length and value - and by that I mean to us as an actual player and as a sellable asset - leads me to think there’s a very legitimate question over whether we should let him go sooner rather than later.
Its the one area of the pitch where we have “future proofed” if we do want to let him go.
I said earlier one or both of Ali will likely be off in the summer otherwise we accept zero or next to zero in terms of transfer income for both when they leave on a free.
I’m not fixed at on an outcome as yet.
Not if Ali’s sold.
I would be against loaning the other keeper out to an EPL side for a season - Bournemouth would be an option.
Keep Jaros as No2 if we think he’s up for it.
Yeah, you think Kelleher would sign an extension, because his contract expires in 2026
Well… now would be the time to offer him a deal better than he’ll get anywhere else - or the summer would, when it all gets figured out.
Right now he’s making an excellent case for getting a shot at No 1 - he’s earning it.
… and this time… you definitely can’t use your English bias against him!!!
… although I’d pay even more money than the Scottish one to see you try - it’d be back to the good old days of Full Troll Modo!!!
I honestly think we are and have covered our bases for all eventualities as far as GK is concerned - there 4 of them in the mix.
I think we’ll see what the market says - we’re in a position we can sell whoever the best offer comes in for - and that will cover a fair chunk for any incomings - with none being a GK.
We'll see. I don't see him signing an extension without getting guarantees. Also, how can I dislike the Irish (except for the rapey one)?
You're as fond of the English as I am.
I’m from the north… we have a love/hate relationship with the English as opposed to the Scots and the Mexican Irish - who just hate them.
No one cares what the Welsh think…
Sheep do.
Mexican Irish 🤣
Speak for yourself 😁
just watching one of those sky sports things on youtube where they pick a combined best XI from city and liverpool with a fan from each arguing the cases….
the liverpool fan has an Allisson picture in his hand, the city fan has Kelleher! what a position to be in.
the liverpool fan has an Allisson picture in his hand, the city fan has Kelleher! what a position to be in.
to be fair the city guy got through the entire XI lifting only 2 city player pictures, gvardiol and haaland which the liverpool fan agreed with.
so that’s where the city fans are at currently.
I mean on form he's probably right.
