If Hurst has had him at Grimsby and Shrewsbury, he'll probably be back in for him at Ipswich. If they have a good relationship, he might choose to go there.

Could make Bartosz Bialkowski available though.

Makes sense, but he's heavily linked with Stoke to replace Butland.
 

what’s the crack with Sam Johnson?

He looked one of the best keepers i saw at the Lane for villa last year - I thought he was just on loan. If villa are in a financial mess I’d be In for him ahead of Henderson tbh.

Though I’m sure he would have some other suitors.
 

Wonder what happened with Blackman then. Moneh? We saving up to buy him next season? Who knows?

It's understandable that we'd want to get the GK position sorted ASAP. Key position.

But I also think we've got this one done early because our management rate Henderson at least as highly as Blackman.

And he'll probably be cheaper too. Despite the hideous 25k p/w contract Man U have just chucked at him.
 

You have to assume Blackman wanted to come back as he's not going to find a better club where he'd be first choice. So 2 conclusions...firstly the boss thinks Henderson is better or secondly Blackman was going to cost too much either as a loan fee and/or in wages.

Glad we've got a stopper in but if he is reportedly on £25k a week then thats more than Blackman. Can only assume we've got a better relationship with Man U and got a better loan fee arrangement than Chelsea because our ex Academy Director is now working for them. Also Man U must be feeling guilty about imposing James Wilson on us.
