Obviously I hope he goes on to be a player we talk about for being such a good player for us but at the moment he looks so out of his depth. How he was valued at 10m is a mystery. Definitely got our pants pulled down on that one.

Has any player shown why we paid what we did for them?

To be honest i think Greaves will be a top player and I know Clarke was poor today but his performance against Villa gives me hope....and Delap of course.

The more I see of him, the more I wonder why we didn't just pay Hladky what he wanted and save on the transfer fee.
I can't see us ever managing to find a better footballing keeper than Hladky, he was ridiculously good with the feet
I do have question marks over him as a stopper and I do think last season masked those weaknesses a little bit
Muric is a PL stopper and claims ball in the air too pretty commandingly
If you are judging him on the playing out and it's hard not to, given how good Hladky was at it, then you're going to be disappointed
He will get better at that as confidence and understanding grows with the back four but it's unlikely he's going to match Hladky's ability there, few will
Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

That feels a long time ago.
But im not sure what goals he was at fault for in that game.
There was the suicidal pass to Morsy which ultimately led to a goal and, for the third, although Johnson’s back pass wasn’t great, the way Muric dealt with it was pretty poor.

I'm not convinced by Muric.
I think that he does have better presence that Hladky, but Hladky is far better with the ball at his feet by a long way.
Also Hladky had built a relationship and understanding with Morsy and the defenders and bringing a new keeper in forces that to be built from scratch, which in a team that is expecting a tough season, is not ideal.
I just think a promoted team changing their keeper for one who overall is not a big upgrade and having to rebuild that understanding is a great thing to have to be doing.
Aside from putting the ball out for a corner when he really shouldn't have today, we saw that the lack of relationship with Burgess and Muric led to the second goal, as neither of them knew whether to leave it or go for it, with Hladky I think there would have been a much more defintive decision as Hladky and Burgess have so much experience together.

Ashton's biggest mistake at town I think was letting Hladky walk

Think people underestimate how much this can effect what defenders do. How many times in recent games did we see greaves try and do something rather than pass back to muric.. same today with Burgess and wolft on a few occasions. Phillips too would rather try and outside of right foot to Burgess than a simple straight pass back to muric.
Absolutely you need someone who can save shots. But when it causes defenders to make mistakes then it is a problem.

As good as he is with his feet, I don’t think Hladky is a good enough keeper for the Premier League. I’m not necessarily saying that Muric is by the way.
