I've said for a while that Vorm is good enough to be our first choice keeper and the save he made last night confirms it for me. He played brilliantly in Hugo's absence and for me he's good enough as first choice for any team in the PL. So why does he stay? We've been linked with other keepers and I cannot think why.

Begovic
Joel
Vorm
Pickford
Palaces backup (Mandada, Speroni or Hennessy whichever one)

Perhaps he just happens to like his place in the world which I find kind of endearing in this age of greed and self above all others.

Now now he's a decent keeper but let's not start overrating him. He could be a PL first choice but to what level exactly?
Lloris
De Gea
Cech
Courtois
Butland
Forster
Mandanda
Begovic
All comfortably better than Vorm.

Vorm stays because he's well paid to stay.
And now that is paying off for him!

I dunno some players are just ok with it. He has the added stress of the fact that no matter how bad lloris plays and lord knows he was bad last time out that loris is captain so very unlikely to be dropped.
I think vorm suffers from being a bit rusty. He needs 90 minutes in close succession to get up to speed.
Good number 1, average number 2. Some keepers are just like that sadly.
Then again there are certain keepers stealing a living out there I will never understand fabianski who I watched many many times at youth level make the same basic mistakes he makes now.

Never been totally sure whether a player would prefer regular first team football for a lower salary than if he was in the reserves for a higher one. I'd have thought the former.

In another team's reserves that is,

whilst he's a good shot stopper, his distribution is simply awful. So many kicks straight into touch, fannnies around looking to play it out. Don't rate him at all personally.

His kicking is better than Lloris.
