[Matthew the blade]

New keepers in, on loans from Chelsea. Personally I'm disappointed seen as most of his career has been played in league 2.

 

[JordoBlade]

Surname quite fitting. Wonder if he's French and has some pace to play out down the wing?

 

[BigBed]

Oh. Any good? Next Kenny??

 

[JordoBlade]

Comes across as a cheap option. Probably no better than Long.

 

[Superblades]

So this is our keeper. I've never heard of him other than a few posts in the rumour section. Good luck to the lad.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

I think this is just the cheap option but i've never seen him play so I guess Wilder sees him as a good replacement for Moore until he is back

 

[GrayBlade]

Played a full season at Wycombe, 23, good age.

 

[Blade58]

How long's the loan for?

Surely just cover as Moore will be back quicker than expected?

 

[Revolution]

I've seen this lad play at youth level for Chelsea a few years ago. He's massive, had command of his area, and was a good shot stopper. Whether he'll look good in proper football remains to be seen.

 

[BigBed]

He's big n black, that should make people happy, is he French though, or part French!!??

 

[ElephantBlade]

Welcome aboard lad.

 

[JohnDenver]

I'm chuffed for Roygbiv. When was the last time he went to a PL champion's forum?

 

[Blade58]

Season long loan then

 

[GrayBlade]

Do Chelsea keep cheap options on their books?

 

[Matthew the blade]

Full season loan

 

[mancunianblade]

Chelsea are no mugs when it comes to young players. he must be good enough to compete for the first team or why would Chelsea agree to loan him to us for a full season at a crucial time in his development if he's going to sit on the bench all season? Ill take this, id have preferred a permanent deal but this will do for sure, Minimal % and Chelseas policy on youth is to sell so if he does well we should be able to buy him.

Good post rev - might shut up a few moaners who HAVEN'T seen him play yet

UTB

Full year loan

 

[Foxy]

I'd have rather we went for someone taller.

Mainly because we currently have one keeper fit enough to play. So he'll at leas get a month or so at playing

 

[Bladezz]

Was on loan all last year at Wycombe and performed heroics in there FA Cup run.

Now he's ready to be a second goalkeeper in the championship or first team in League one.

Happy with this!!

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Can't say I ever heard rave reviews or anything from his performances while on loan so Strikes me as a number 2 for Moore.

That said he must have something about him if he's at Chelsea.

Let's see how he does

 

[TomTheBlade1889]

Signed on loan.

 

[Esablade]

It's for the year...this is interesting:

"Jamal has been our number one target right the way through the summer. "

 

[GrayBlade]

He got Wycombe's young player of the year award last season.

"Elsewhere, Jamal Blackman received the Young Player of the Season Award in recognition of his 16 clean sheets in all competitions this season and for his many match-saving moments during his year-long loan spell at the club".

 

[mancunianblade]

Mainly because we currently have one keeper fit enough to play. So he'll at leas get a month or so at playing

But that is only1 month from 9. Wilder mist think he's good enough to compete with Moore all season, and Chelsea have taken his word for it. Im happy with this

 

[Bladezz]

We're people expecting us to sign a keeper better than the League one goalkeeper of the year?

As cover for our injured goalkeeper?

 

[S5Blade]

Best Twitter name ever. Thumbs up from me

 

[Jonboy60]

Part French, the top part.
