Goalkeepers.

But more on topic Harle I think the main reason for Spain preferring Kepa is because he suits their style of play more.

As amazing a shot stopper as DDG is his distribution is pretty poor and you can't get away with that in a team like Spain.

Early days with Kepa but his distribution has been nothing special. Especially the long hoofs that always end up with the opposition player.

whose that for? I haven't noticed that at chelsea so far.

I am very happy with the guy,we done well !

Can't blame the Spanish on not eating DDG, He's garbage for Spain, Hes actually been pretty poor for Utd this season also (albeit only 3 matches)

Kepa is Spanish (well Basque) but he's one of their own so I can see why they would prefer him over Courtois.

Have you watched us this season? His distribution has been exceptional, Especially when you consider how bad Courtois' was.

Los Merengues do not like the fact that Coutoise was with Atleti for 3 seasons !

I thought he was excellent against Leicester. But perhaps worrying for Man Utd that unless DDG plays a blinder they don’t win.

also, the RM fans were not impressed to have missed out on Kepa and to have bought the Postman !

Why? Courtois' a hell of a backup keeper
