That is fair enough I took it as that from your reply to my post ..I've just spent the last 15 minutes looking for a decent set of highlights as I did lose internet for 4/5 minutes and I did miss the point blank one from their striker Havertz or something second half

Solid game i thought.

None of the saves he made were special.

Bread and butter saves for a Premier league goalkeeper but they still had to be made.

So when can we expect the media to start linking him with Man City and Barca?

Now a target for PSG allegedly, they think they have a better chance of getting him on the cheap than Lloris or de Gea.

He maybe young... but I doubt is is dumb enough to go to a team and sit on the bench after a full season in the prem... He is'nt going anywhere IMO.

Meslier could become a very good keeper he still has loads to learn and very young, allready pretty impressive in games no wonder other clubs will want him, we need to keep hold of him will be a special one in a few years, Leeds Keep Hold.

I personally don't think Caprile is too far behind ...

Looks a cracker, his distribution in particular is very special.

I’d certainly be looking to increase his wages and also extend his deal.

Watching U23's this season Caprile has improved so much, wasn't sure about him at first but recent games has looked the real deal.

Its not always the most glamourous position but given his age and what MB wants him to do with the ball, he is defo up there battling it out for the POTS award.

A absolute snip at £5m for a terrific young keeper.
