4 clean sheets in the last 7 games - is that not good enough?

He made some good saves yesterday, but we need some consistency from him. He probably realised that he needs to do better than he was, if he is to join his dream team Atletico Madrid next summer.

Atleti aren't as wealthy as the PL clubs or Spain's big two. They need to consider their investments and, being as well covered as they are with Oblak (on presumably far lower wages), there's simply no way I could see them wanting Courtois back unless it were for significantly less than they got for Oblak.

Courtois might have been poor for a lengthy spell during which the entire team was, but imo he's still a top keeper.

Off hand, PSG or Juve are the only top clubs I can think of right now who might be willing to lure him away. Most of the others seem well covered atm.

I was only joking with you Ioag, because I know RM are after him I could have said he loves Barca.instead !! BUtd I didn't want want to be mean.

That said we could still do a business with Atletico a straight swap with Griezman isn't that far fetched. I know Atleti fans love Courtouis.

Real Madrid can be included in any list of clubs potentially interested in a top player. W won't be signing anyone soon unless the transfer ban's lifted though.

You'd never get Griezmann in a straight swap. Atleti would be expecting to get his fulll release clause (€100M) or something very close to that figure. In today's market (Higuaín going for €90M), it sounds about right too.

Atleti are currently banned from participating in the transfer market - so they won't be buying from us or selling to us. All those rumours are false.

There are no rumours apart from when Courtouis when he opens his mouth during international breaks
