That's why it's wishlist stuff.I can't see us spending £80M on a GK though.
Same. But if we did, Oblak would be our Keeper for the next 10 years. 8m pounds a year.I can't see us spending £80M on a GK though.

There's change in direction and then there's utter lunacy. We were laughing at City for spending 50 million on fullbacks and now we're going to spend 80 on a keeper? I don't think so. There's maybe 3 teams in the world who would pay that sum and none of them are us.There seems to be change in direction. Maybe we are in for a surprise this summer.
Could see Liverfool getting him...Sp**s is not possible except if they sell Kane.100% gonna be in that top bracket of keeper alongside De Gea and Neuer before long if he isn't already.
His positioning is out of this world, you very rarely seen him scrambling or caught out by long shots. Great at reading the play, so knows when to come off his line and sweep.
Reflexes, up there with De Gea, pulled off some mad saves that 1% of keepers could make. Honestly incredible. If it wasn't for him Atletico would be right in the sh*t.
He has a reputation as a poor penalty saver but that's bollocks, yes he was very poor in the shootout vs Real but he dragged them through the year before vs I think Leverkusen or Dortmund.
Also excluding shootouts I think his penalty to save ratio is around 50%, so he passes the AM test of being able to save penalties
Dream signing, get him in. I'd die if he ended up at Pool or Sp**s.

Legitimate question @Rex Banner...
If Griezmann goes to Barca, will Atletico be in for a striker? You've got Costa and Gameiro, but would you still want a Griezmann replacement?
I'm basically building up to wondering if there would have any interest in Lacazette coming your way, as you were interested in him before. He could be an interesting makeweight in a swap deal.
This is a bit out there, I know. Just thinking of ways this deal could work.
Wow interesting, that's a lot more feasible then. I still think we'll end up with a less established but promising keeper, but if that's true I could see us considering it.They'll never hold them to that though. They're a club that still has to sell players, they're second fiddle to Premiership teams and the big two.
I think around maybe 40-50 might be enough, it'd make him the most expensive keeper ever off the top of my head.
Maybe PSG would stump that up for him but got a feeling they'll be after Donnarumma or Lafont in a couple of years anyway.
Atletico are nearing the end of their cycle as a real challenger to the big two. Griezmann and Oblak are probably off, hopefully here
