New keeper search must be top priority.

The search is currently on going for a replacement for Joe Hart and there hasn’t been a shortage of names touted as a possible successor.

However it’s most likely nothing more than mere speculation. The club will have their targets in mind, well I hope they do as it’s a position that is in need of rectifying urgently.

Pre season will soon be upon us and it’s vital that we have a new man between the sticks as we prepare for yet another gruelling season domestically and in Europe.

The new man needs time to bed in and be prepared for the new campaign so the sooner he’s in place the better. The keeper position is a vital one, and it can impact how the side, especially the defence perform.

Remember Vasilis Barkas? The Greek keeper who we signed for a considerable amount of money and was well, to put it politely, absolutely rank rotten.

He didn’t look comfortable from the moment he arrived at Celtic, and his nervy attitude affected the men in front of him and we went on to have one of the worst campaigns in living memory.

Then Ange brought in Joe Hart. A man who was experienced, a leader, and most importantly he was talented. We need a man of a similar ilk as his replacement.

It will be a hard task, but one that we can achieve if we search hard enough. It’s also got to be sorted soon, it’s vital we do just that.
