And yet, it is a must, and I firmly believe a keeper will be bought. We're definitely moving Ming on so we need to sign a keeper. After Karius's display in the CL final I don't see us buying a back up keeper.

I think there are plenty of keepers that would offer more than a minor upgrade without massively overpaying.
We simply can’t start next season with Karius or Mingolet as first choice.
plays for Atleti ... back up to Juanfran.
Yup. I'd take him.
He's not lacking in confidence, but I don't think he's as good as he thinks he is. Still, he's better than what we have.
Fixed
I'd take him 100%?
With Kasper in goal I think we would’ve probably beaten Real.
A wet towel would have been enough.
If truth be told, I do think his absolute self belief is what makes him someone that I would consider, even if he's not the most athletic, and is probably by no means the best at any single aspect of keeping. That indomitable aggressive confidence is a fantastic attribute to have in a keeper. All keepers fuck up- and Kasper has done so many times, but he has the mental strength not to question himself and to lock the mistake away. We've had two mentally fragile keepers who look tortured by self doubt at times. I'm not sure I want Kasper, but I'd love someone with his spirit.
I don't know why we aren't more excited about him
Hes an odd one alright, 4 years ago in Brazil he was one of the breakout talents in a young Belgian team that played some great foorball. Now hes at home watching the matches with his feet up while bang average players like Batshuayi and Chadli are playing in a world cup quarter final.
Thats the point, Origi has gone backwards to the point that even average players are miles in front of him. 4 years ago he was the future of Belgian football.
I know Inui from Japan is 30 but he seems really mobile, quick feet, hard working - would be an interesting backup for a CF?
