I find it very odd that you get promoted yet you don't at least start with the keeper that got you there.

Hladky isn't deemed good enough to start for Burnley in the Chump....

It was an area screaming for strengthening.

We have just spent a lot of money on someone who isn't actually an improvement. I think you need someone a bit older with a load of Prem experience who can steady the ship. Muric seems to somehow massively destabilise us.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

Their should definitely be some salt applied to this post but also a grain of truth.

Reminds me of when we went from having Richard Wright in goal to Andy Marshall.

Struggle to get overly worked up by the decision to let him go to be honest. A keeper that would have been number 2 regardless and currently isn’t playing in the Championship.

McKenna decides who stays, who goes. The buck stops with him on that.

If we got a keeper who was better then no. No issue. But we haven't.

Could have saved £10 mill and played hladky for continuity and confidence for the backline

Also. Saying hladky can't get in the Burnley team... remember muric was dropped and played 2nd fiddle to Trafford too.

That’s Burnley’s problem. He was clearly good enough for us. Some might say he was a promotion-winning keeper.

Some might say he was getting found out towards the end of the season, got caught on a few occasions and got lucky on others and wasn’t good enough for the PL. Without scapegoating Muric, I think Walton should be in the side. He looked solid against Liverpool - a proper goalkeeper who knows the players and system KM is trying to play..

Hladky would have let in a lot more goals. Muric seems to be saving two 1-on1's a game at the moment.

Hladky was decent with his feet but we would be lamenting not strengthening GK if he had stayed. I'm sorry but he would not have been the required quality. Muric is a better keeper. He's been a bit erratic but he's a better keeper than Hladky.

If McKenna wanted Hladky he would off got contract. Hardly played at Burnley.

I must admit Muric hasn’t proved himself yet,in his defence however he has not played with a settled back four due to injury etc in any of our games to create any understanding between themselves.

Is Hladky a Premier League quality keeper? He's on the bench for Burnley behind Trafford, whom a lot of Burnley fans didn't rate last season. In fact, a lot of them preferred Muric to Trafford.

I don't think so. I still always felt he was a weak link for his last season. It's difficult to articulate that as I still believe he has to take huge credit as well. His style and ability with his feet allowed us a new facet to atta king from the back. He made some great saves. He was good in 1-on-1. But his handling on numerous occasions, positioning and ability to keep the ball out of the net (not withstanding some great saves) was lower champ/L1 for me (I know some will find that harsh). His other attributes (confidence and Ability with feet) made him a championship level keeper.

Didn’t do that last season though. Yes I accept that was down to injuries but the point still holds

Hladky got away with a lot in the Championship that would get punished in the Prem, and we did concede a lot of goals last year.

I love what Hladky gave us last season on balance but we need to be careful not to re-write history. He's a soon to be 34 year old who has had 1 season at Championship level in his career and now can't get himself into the Burnley side, admittedly he's got stiff competition there. Even last season there were evident weaknesses, his reluctance to come for aerial balls for one which Muric excels at. While he made some great saves there were also a fair share of soft goals IMO, Hull away (and Coventry away for that matter) being good examples very late in the season.

I also think playing out in the PL and playing out in the Championship is like comparing apples and oranges. You are facing an elite level press in this league every week. Burnley fans will tell you that Muric absolutely took the p!ss in the Championship. I don't deny he's looked a bit hit and miss with his feet at times but it is a different ball game at this level.

Everyone was moaning about Hladkey most of last year saying he makes them nervous etc. He made plenty of mistakes but got away with it because we were winning games still.
