Because the next Murray or Ikeme will do well out on loan at another club, and if and when they do, they'll easily be able to get past King. This has obviously been done to help the young keepers.
We have to as a club make sure the out of our control circumstances that curtailed fabios development are not repeated!
You can’t help injury ripping through the squad depth of a few players meaning the youth is needed as there are no senior pros left.
But you can help the youth being thrust in when they aren’t ready because we didn’t have enough senior cover there.
As with the GK’s the club got the build and depth of this specialist department PERFECTLY CORRECT!!!!!!
You don’t need perfect, like for like replacements in every player in the depth chart for a role, sometimes you just need a senior ready body! Inexpensive wages, but ready in that “break glass in case of emergency” situation.
