    Who wants to shill out big fees for a back up keeper, on a starters wage, or an attacking midfielder with fitness issues who doesn’t play?

    Edu can really only play the hand he’s dealt, but he plays a role in that. If we wanted big fees, we should have sold ESR two years ago and Ramsdale over the summer. They just sit around and don’t play now.

      I know Raya is looking a better fit than Rambo atm but he is not merely a ‘backup keeper’ 😭

        Is he starting? He hasn’t started a league since the last interlul an hasn’t started a Champion’s League match. He is the back up right now.

          For us, but the context here is of interest from other teams and he’d a be a dream for a lot of them

            Maybe. Arteta has already caused quite the stir by saying he regrets not substituting Ramsdale and then subsequently not playing him outside the league cup. For better or worse, that effects player valuation.

            He’s on wages that a lot of other clubs just can’t support. The only real hope here is that the Onana experiment continues to fail and maybe United plunk something for him. Otherwise I just don’t know where his market is.
