Heard that from a few different places/sources now so seems he is actually someone we want. Brighton paid £20m for 21 year old, Dutch international Verbruggen last summer, so you'd have to think Rushworth is going to be available this summer. Premier League football is his next step and Brighton could well think his value is maximised at the moment after a great loan spell last season.
No, it’s by far the weakest part of his game. Not just the technical side of being able to pick a pass. He panics when he’s closed down and then makes poor choices. I don’t understand why we’re after him unless KM is confident they can mould him into a footballing keeper some how.
He is a very good shot stopper though and is young with lots of time to improve. And maybe we’re going to change the way we play a bit?
(Just to add - the other side of the equation is that he was playing behind a poor defence last season, so that wouldn’t have given in confidence playing out. Maybe he’s a lot better than I’ve seen and with cooler defenders around him he’d be fine. I certainly trust KM to know what he wants).
