Dr_Pangloss Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Which goalies in the league are better? I was told in this thread that Begovic and Hart are better, which is of course a load of bollocks. Begovic makes far too many elementary errors and Hart is basically the second coming of David James, he has awful concentration and doesn't command his area particularly well. Guzan is better than both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heid3ster Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Friedel has always come across as a quietly confident and intelligent footballer, if we could bring him back here to work with steer and Guzan again, and i think Guzan and Friedel working together could be a draw, then i think we should do everything we can to get him back, great character. on the subject of Guzan, whenever a player is in front of goal i feel increasingly confident Guzan will stop it, however he seems to have forgotten how to kick a ball since Benteke went off at Norwich, that needs serious work and fast because it's frustrating as **** and is putting us regularly under unnecessary pressure Friedel would make an excellent goalkeeping coach and such a good influence on Brad and Steer. I'd love to see this happen. Love Super Brad but his distribution does need work. I expect he'll be doing a little extra kicking practice this week. Still -- even in a game where his distribution was largely unsuccessful and he had at least three goal kicks go straight out for a throw, he managed an assist. Not bad. watching the highlights if Chelsea spurs yesterday, avb was constantly turning to friedel I think Friedel was just doing that thing where you tap someone on the shoulder then look away.

Rob182 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I think Given has been using his spare time to give Guzan tips on how to take goal kicks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted October 9, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Arsenal have been linked with Guzan today. Obviously, we wouldn't sell unless he tried to force it. But hypothetically, if we were to sell Guzan, what sort of fee would you think is "acceptable"? Edited October 9, 2013 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hypothetically, if we were to sell Guzan, what sort of fee would you think is "acceptable"? Given how valuable he is to the team I would say at least 9m - as good as mingolet and got a good 10 years in him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hypothetically, if we were to sell Guzan, what sort of fee would you think is "acceptable"? Given that they already have a very good goalkeeper in Szczęsny who is only 23 then I assume its just media speculation and there's zero truth in it.

villan_007 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 If I remember correctly didn't Wenger have first dibbs on him just before we signed him and then changed his mind? he has been interested in him at some point before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Cant see Guzan wanting to play second fiddle to Szczęsny even if Wenger is interested which I doubt very much as they have other areas of the pitch they need to strengthen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted October 9, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Yeah, the move is unlikely, the point is, how much do you think he's worth if he was to move anywhere? Edited October 9, 2013 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swerbs Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 About 10m at a push I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Yeah, the move is unlikely, the point is, how much do you think he's worth if he was to move anywhere? Well he's as important to us as Benteke is so no price really would be enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Goalie's don't really tend to command massive fees other than the odd exception here and there. Market value what, £13M? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cizzler Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Mignolet went for £9 million, so I'd imagine a comparable price to that. I am not at all convinced by Szczesny but it is still highly unlikely we will sell him to Arsenal. Brad seems to like it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Market value is whatever we say. Guzan has just signed up to a nice new contract, too, so good luck gunners! This is the cockney press simply being very disrespectful to Villa once again. It was Benteke last year and now it's Brad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be our valuation, which I would expect to be higher this the market valuation because of how important he is to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
