Surely we should have done this deal in a few days - like 1 min after the teams are announced so he can't play against us. Btw, as our official statto, how many former Gooner goalies will now be playing for PL sides?
Leno, Emi, Turner. Isn't Flappy playing for someone? Is this a record? What happened to the Wop with the Keown eyebrows?
Ironically, in all those years between Mad Jens and Rambo, we had one truly world class keeper and we gave away Sir Chez for free just for having a fag. I loved Wojtek. He had some of the calmness of Big Paddy or Spunky and a bit of Jens' nuttiness. I'm hoping Rambo becomes an all-time great.
Fabianski is still at West Ham. Think you mean Vito Mannone with the eyebrows - he was at Monaco for a while, now with Lorient.
We sold Szczesny for €15 million - didn't lose him on a free. Not sure calmness was one of his traits either though
Ok, calmness isn't quite the right term. Reassuring presence, then. Unflappable, not panicky when coming for corners and crosses etc.
Is 4 former 'keepers at PL clubs any sort of record?
But yes, Vito. I had hopes for him, initially. His eyes were mad like Jens and his eyebrows were intimidating like Keown.
