This kind of thread kills me. Given is an Irish hero, one of the best goalies to have
EVER played in the Prem. A class act and a model, loyal pro.
I would love him at United in a heartbeat, especially as Edwin is nearing the end.
BUT:
Edwin is still a class number 1, United's number 1, European and Prem champion.
Im a huge Edwin fan and will back him through his recent sticky patch.
He will be legendary again.
Kuzzie is a very good keeper. He will be an able deputy for us, whether its for
Edwin, Foster or Given lol.
Foster is future England class and will get his chance. He has been unlcuky with
injuries and timing but he will get there in the end.
United are flush with keepers right now, but if Edwin was to leave next season,
Id take Shay in a heart beat.
Also, some above have labelled keepers injury prone. This isnt the case really.
Its more about bad luck and certain twists/tears you would get in a collision.
People say Given is injury prone. Was it his fault he got his stomach ripped open
by an attackers studs? He had a lot of time out and became succeptible
to strains and ache's which is what happened.
It took him a while to recover from that but now that he has, he is back in form
and getting LOTS of practice behind a dodgy Tooooooon defence.
