Kjell Scherpen

Still impressive, actually, though.

Kiel Scherpen, 17.2%.

Isn't far off the figure that Sindra's got there.

And rock bottom, Christian Walton, 16.6%.

Kiel Scherpen, fast for a big man.

I'm not surprised.

I mean, Jack Clark, as I said, I don't think he's particularly fast.

Frederick Hertz says, Hi, James.

Current bench is Sherpen, Calafuri, Pedro, and Schaboschleier.

I'm playing Bellumi, Egan, and Diop.

I have one free transfer.

Yeah, I am happy with Walton, to be honest, because...

Yeah, like I say, I truly do believe Sherpen was planned to be number one.

And I was happy with that choice because as much as I like Walton, there is definitely room for an upgrade there.

And yeah, bring one in and Sherpen was not up to the standard.

The man can't play.

And it sounds harsh because he's made some good saves, but he can't play football.

Paul, I just want to finish on goalkeeper situation.

So Sherpen lost his place very suddenly at Everton.

I mean, it was quite unexpected.

Christian Walton's number one now, is he?

Yeah.

And Gary O'Neill in the press conference, I think before Man City, said that the plan was always that Walton was the number one and Sherpen was the competition.

But Christian Walton got injured in pre-season.

Okay.

Walton

is now starting over Sherpen and is 4.4.

So if Penders goes wrong and you've got nothing in the bank, you do have a starting keeper for the same price.

But that's all.

But he's, you know, he started over Sherpen because...

He basically just said he was training better.

I mean, you know, form.

But you've got a bit of a bone to pick about between the sticks and I think this is...

It's funny, isn't it? Because we were talking about Sherpen who'd been brought in and started and we kept saying, look, he's a nightmare.

We need to change this and bring in Christian Walton.

And then Christian Walton doesn't have a great game at the Etihad either and I do think it's a real problem this for Ipswich Town because now where do you turn? Do you now go back to Sherpen who must, his confidence must be completely shot given that he's been taken out of the side.

Do you persevere with Christian Walton? Do you address it when you get to January? I know what

they need to do.

I'm fully in the belief of the plan was always for Walton to be The number one, I think it maybe has come as a realisation looking at some of...

Kjell Scherpen has some fantastic strengths, namely he is tall.

He can climb crosses out of the air.

He's good with getting to those high areas, but also he definitely... has bits where if a shot is low and powerful he struggles to get down his distribution from the back is not great and he can work on those that's something especially as a young goalkeeper he's what 26 that that can come over time his career could be another 15 years if he wants it to be um but i think it became quite clear by the time that Ipswich played Crystal Palace, that he wasn't ready to start games in the Premier League.

I'm sorry, I'm not buying that to be honest with you.

I think Sherpen is the number one keeper and he hasn't started great as we've discussed on here.

And suddenly Christian is at the forefront.

That's a weird conversation to suddenly bring in mid-October at a press conference for me anyway.

I would go Verbruggen over Kinsky just because if they both keep a clean sheet, which I think is pretty similar chance of happening, Verbruggen is much more likely to get an eight, nine-pointer with saves and bonus so far this season compared to Kinsky.

Outside of that, we've got Petrovic, Trafford, Slakkis, Horncek of Newcastle despite their performances re- recently, Martinez, Kelleher, Pickford, Roe, Suzuki, Henderson if he's back available for Crystal Palace, Lamons, Alisson, Sels, Rushworth, and Scherpen.

And then we start to have a look at the outfield players.

If you own Pascal Gross, then yes, you definitely start him.
