    Did he not say a good few months ago that he would take a cut to sign with us?

    That was probably only headlines tbh.

    What amount cut is the issue. His salary will be halved as he currently gets £65 to 70k a week. He may just want a loan instead.

    I'm still dubious about his intentions, would love the desperate to stay part being true, but honestly think he wants to stay down south think he might even elect to go to a Championship club.

    I'd even take another season loan.

    And risk another Southampton? He was in tears after the Lazio game.

    If a pay cut is an issue for him, he won’t be going to a Championship club. The average wage in that league is £16k a week.

    He is miles better than the Championship, he is a Premiership level goalkeeper that just needs to feel loved and he gets that with Lenny and with our club in general.

    It’s a perfect fit, he called it ‘coming home’ - time to make it permenant.

    That's the average, players earn can earn what we pay but your right in that he would take a pay cut going there.

    Yeah but you said the average was 16k which is why he wouldn't go there. There will be players in that league earning more than he does now. Some of those clubs pump silly money to promote

    Of course, but I think we’d be the more tempting offer in those circumstances. No guarantee of promotion for any club from that league.

    Would be mental if he stayed and had won 5 of the 10 and his celtic career included 4 loan spells and a permanent deal

    True we can't match EPL wages but we can offer him a first team spot, a chance at silverware, a chance at medals, a chance at history, aaa professional and nurturing coaching staffgstaff , a gigantic adoring fan base.

    If that ain't enough, throw in clean sheet bonuses and slice of the merch.

    If THAT isn't enough, throw in a lubed up, backdoor hammer time love making sesh with Craig Gordon's bint.

    He is absolutely ESSENTIAL.

    He'll lose out on a clean sheet bonus if he has free access to Summer...

    Give everything to him, everything.

    If he asks to have weekly baths in pepto bismol and finger blast every wag of all the players just to keep his hands strong, they best be letting lurch send their * to the moon.

    Just make it * happen.
