Leno is a bit too Aryan, he might attract the wrong type of supporter, if that starts to happen we might be accused of having an alt-right fanbase.
Mbappe definitely but not Neymar.Hearing PSG is offering Neymar and Mbappe in a swap deal. Not sure that's enough for me though.
I think one of the problems is Emi's contract runs out in two seasons. Bernd's contract runs out the year later. If we don't make the decision as to which gk we keep in the next 1/2 years, neither of them will renew.
That could mean we have to sell one for less than market value. Or even worse, lose one of them on a free. IMO if Emi is still playing like he is now come January we sell him whilst he has a high market valuation and re-invest in other parts of the squad.
I'd still pick Leno over Emi just because he's been doing it consistently in Germany and here. I don't know if Emi can maintain that form for a longer period of time.
The exaggeration here is typical after someone puts together a number of good performances.
Surely if he is playing the same come Jan we give him a new contract, not sell him!
I've been impressed too, but there's no telling if he's matured and entered his peak or he just had a good run of form.I have been impressed.
However, my concern would be that we go all in on him and then he bottles it as an outright number 1 and we end up looking a bit silly for having ditched Leno!
Neither of them will sign a new contract without being assured of being No. 1.
I think Emi should be sold at that point becuase he'll be more attractive to a prospective buyer. If he makes it to January on great form a prospective buyer will see:
1. relatively young keeper
2. playing for a club with CL ambition (lol)
3. Low wages (very important)
4. Around 1 season of performing in a high pressure/high expectation environment.
Bernd on the other hand has much higher wages than Emi. Also other clubs don't know how the injury will have effected Bernd,. I think we'd struggle to sell Bernd if we try to move him on either this or next transfer window. Selling Emi asap is the best financial decision imo. His valuation will never be higher than it is right now or in January.
Honestly I'd be happy if we kept either of them, they're both quality. But we should definitely sell one asap.
