Not sure what to think of this?
Romano reporting that Xabi Alonso has played down reports on Diogo Costa or any other goalkeepers linked to Chelsea.
“I am very happy with our goalkeepers I have. Mike Penders did great at Strasbourg and Sanchez has good experience after many years in PL”.

K, Well, at least someone is happy.

I would like us to sign Costa as I rate him as one of the best keepers in Europe.
I can't see us signing him despite the rumours. I think Alonso will start with Sanchez as his No1.

Jimbo, the quote was from our new manager.

Tom,
We can only hope Penders is a good keeper, and Alonso sees that, after the first game of the season, he should be No.1.
Sanchez won't hang around and become second fiddle, meanwhile Barnet will have signed Costa.

K, yes, I realised that, which is worrying.
