I'm most worried about what happens when he makes a couple of mistakes (as any keeper will at some point), and the significant shitty element of our fans start getting on his back. There are far too many entitled supporters amongst our lot.

Let's fucking support the bloke, no matter what.

Yes, there are too many unrealistic fans from when we overachieved under poch. I don’t think you should ever boo or turn on your players, I was at the game when fans done it to Sanchez, like that is going to help the situation.

Club needs to act more like a family, keep your business in House and defend our players.

I agree. Keep the family in the house and get the players to act like defenders.

Getting a keeper in early before preseason starts is vital as it’s the last position we need to be leaving to the last minute negotiating a fee.

yup

It should be the ambition of every window to get players in before preseason. It’s rarely achievable, but it should be the objective.

Empoli 2021/22 : Back in serie A after winning promotion in 20/21

Goals scored - 50
Goals conceded - 70
League position -14
Only 2 other teams in league conceded more than them


Empoli 2022/23 :

Goals scored - 37
Goals conceded - 49
League position -14
Just 6 goals more conceded than top4 Milan.

So, its pretty clear, especially last season, Empoli were so defensive. They scored less & they conceded less to maintan same league spot.

To assess, How did Vicario play out from back, Why does Vicario push the shot into middle...does he come out for crosses ? All these are irrelevant questions.

When you have a team that only wants to defend at the back....and they defend in the box.... GK doesnt need to come out for crosses often as mostly it dealt by the 3CBs in front. GK will so many shots on goal, so there will be some shots spilling into center - its inevitable.

If you are going to assess Vicario at Empoli, then assess his shot stopping only. Everything else cannot be judged from his spell

Our scouts have made the call, lets hope they are right. We can only wait & see him in flesh. Then judge him fairly

Sorry but late to the party on this one but is Vicario to be our No.1 or are we still considering Raya?
