Sorry mate, this is one position that I really don't worry about so a pointless article as far as I'm concerned.

I would debate with you about almost every other position in the team (except right wing) but the keeper is way down the list!

Doris was highly rated by swansea fans and didn't BR want him at Liverpool? maybe worth givin him a go but whenever I've seen him play granted not often I've been unimpressed

You may not worry about it because Ikeme doesn't make a lot of errors but is there not an argument that we should be looking to improve our chances in matches by making positive changes as well as resolving negative issues i.e. Ward is apparently a weak link, so we've brought someone in to play instead but that isn't to say we shouldn't also be looking to improve positions that aren't the weak link if it improves the squad performance as a whole?

Even if he is not a better shot stopper and he concedes 3 in 100 shots to Ikeme's 2, if his organisation and confidence and experience result in half as many shots on goal against us then we concede fewer (number are purely hypothetical to prove a point obviously), and his distribution results in a few more goals than Ikeme's over the whole season then isn't there an argument for trying it?

De Vries has always looked like a small unimposing goalkeeper to me, who has made one errors in the few games he has played.

Ikeme did have a few games where his standards slipped but at Derby and Barnsley he had very good games and I see no need to change

De Vries is a very good shot stopper but isnt so convincing dealing with crosses

Don't agree.

You dont agree with what? Anything?

Not sure what you mean by "he's been there and done it" tbh. Swansea got him from Dunfermline. Plus he's only started 11 games since we got him.

I mean he's got a few successful years in the Championship before, he's broken a clean sheets record, he's been promoted through the playoffs, he's won the golden hand (golden hand? glove? whatever it is called). He wouldn't be much of a risk and the shakeup might just be positive.

I think Ikeme has had a fine season. He's quick to collect the ball out of the net. His kicking and rolling out to under-pressure defenders is excellent! He now tries to punch everything clear....apart from his statuesque play....Cardiff 2nd goal! I would definitely have De Vries in....remember a certain US oldie who came in a turned it around.

Nobody could turn this round.
