with all this talk of keepers being signed gomes or butland think both aren't that good gomes is a calamity and butland is hugely overrated by the media, the only keeper i'd be happy if we signed is Alex McCarthy lad has good kickouts amazing reflexes the like if never seen before kid has got everything and i'd think he would come back to leeds if he was guarenteed number 1 thoughts anyone on who you would like if takeover goes through as goalkeeper

1.) I'm not that unhappy with Kenny. I think there are other areas in the team that need strengthening before a keeper

{Ed013's Note - Agreed, the squad requires quality in other areas first}

2.) I reackon we need 2 wingers, a goal scorer and a creative mid.

I hear, Lamela, Soldado, Kagawa are all available.

3.) Completely agree with Mccarthy being better but he he isn't available would love him back, and would take Butland over Gomes

4.) Press conference mentioning an injury to Kenny so more of a necessity than a vote of no confidence, my opinions on Kenny are known but even if he was fit the competition for #1 wouldn't be a bad thing!

5.) It would be far easier to say where we have quality, rather than where we need to strengthen. Ross quality, Byram, Mowatt, Smith potential and as for the rest they have good games sometimes but in general it's the worse Leeds squad I can remember. Stickey approaching 50 years old

I am glad it's Butland not Gomes. Whether we think goalkeeper was a priority or not he is a high profile signing and it is obvious who will be funding it so he must not have any concerns over the FL decision. It sends out a very promising message.

7.) Can't agree with the guy who is happy with Kenny. He's the first player I'd replace.

His stats speak for themselves. Barely more than 1 save per goal whereas McCarthy makes 4 saves per goal. He flaps at high balls and his distribution is atrocious - pure Warnock hoofball.

The problem with keepers launching it forward is that it makes it almost impossible to play possession football and Kenny's default mode is to launch it forward. Once Kenny gets the ball it usually ends up with the opposition in control. Once that happens you're always going to be playing on the back foot.

Looking forward to Butland - we might actually start to see some proper build up play.

8.) I do agree that kenny isn't great but I would say he's a player that just belends in, he isn't terrible nor is he a game changer. To be fair to him he is always getting the ball played back to him even when he clearly tells them not to pass back to him (notts forest match) he fits in with the style of play and the age range

9.) I meant blends in lol
